Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Professional--knowledgeable--available after-hours. Has been my family physician for many years. Appropriately emotionally supportive.

I went in for an appointment to talk about my lab work with Dr. Holmer. I was low in B-12. I asked for a prescription to give a B-12 shot to myself as I could not afford to see Dr. Homler every month. I was hoping to work something out, and then he dismissed me. He also charged 100.00 yearly for administration fees that are not considered healthcare expenses, and I could not use my healthcare savings account for this fee.

Dr Homler is a dedicated professional! He has cared for several of my family members. He is thorough and detailed in addressing any needs brought to him. He also was the hospice Dr during my husband’s terminal illness and was immensely helpful and caring. I moved out of state and miss his caring service. You’re blessed if he’s your doctor

Dr Homler is beyond question the best physician that I have ever known in my life and I am 80 years old. I have invariably been called in to see him at the appointment time, he has always been both friendly and courteous, he listens closely, and most importantly, he makes the right diagnosis or sends me to an appropriate specialist when needed. Additionally, he responds personally to calls to his office when his personal attention is required as determined by his totally professional staff. His staff too are exceptional. None of the run-around that is common-place by staff of other physicians that I have gone to. Rather, they, each and every one of them, takes the time to find the appropriate response for whatever reason that I called. I am proud to tell other professionals when I am asked that Howard Homler is my Primary Care Physician.

Dr. Homler is the best physician I have ever gone to. He is an excellent diagnostition, and if he can't fix a problem he refers to a highly competent specialist who can. Dr. Homler attended my husband and my mother through his Hospice work until they passed. He was caring and supportive to them and to me, as I was the primary care giver for both of them. He is always available for either an office visit or to answer a question with a phone call. His staff are all excellent. They are friendly, highly competent and professional. They know the patients by name and make everyone feel comfortable and valued. Dr. Homler has treated my family for many years and I dread the day when he announces his much deserved retirement. I told him he can't retire until I expire!!!

Dr. Homler has been my doctor for 30 years and is responsible for helping me be one of the healthiest 80 year old around. He and his wonderful staff of women have always been efficient, caring, informative and johnny on the spot to provide guidance and support in the office and on the phone. I have occasion to call after hours and have always been very satisfied with the response of the on-call doctor. The office atmosphere is always accepting, there are always genuine smiles and good humor. I rarely have to wait past my appointment time and if I am early I am seen early. It feels like one happy family in Dr. Holmer's office. I would give all of them 10 stars.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Homler?
I feel I can’t ask questions and was told in the beginning only one question by assistant. This leaves me reluctant to discuss issues. I think they need to listen more. I’ve been told by other professionals he is the best on analyzing issues and being able to read and interpret between the lines and keep researching for the best diagnosis and treatment. The professionals say he is brilliant. That is what I like that the medical community supports him and recommends him for use of his knowledge and and experience. One of my other doctors says he is the best and my wife and I are his patients. I like that he copies all my related doctors with his findings after each appt. if need be contacts my other doctors to share his findings so that they will hopefully make the right diagnosis especially about medications. I truly feel he is the best doctor I could have.
