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.

The prior recommendations do not come close enough to describing my experience with Dr. Holtzman. He was simply amazing! Not only is he a fabulous oral surgeon, he is kind , he engenders a feeling of calm and is so funny, he could have a side gig as a stand up comedian !My husband is making an appointment even as I type this.

Outstanding Oral Surgeon
Dr. Holtzman is phenomenal. In August, I had to undergo a bone graft and implant procedure for my two teeth, and Dr. Holtzman proved to be an exceptional oral surgeon. He blended professionalism with genuine compassion and addressed all my concerns, making the experience surprisingly comfortable. With precision and skill, he made the procedure seem effortless. The office manager (I think her name was Anna) was also caring, showcasing a team that prioritizes patient well-being.In a field where anxiety is common, Dr. Holtzman and his team stand out for creating a welcoming environment that goes beyond clinical excellence. Dr. Holtzman understands the importance of patient comfort and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking oral surgery.

I have known this surgeon for more then 10 years . He is the most caring , helpful and skillful doctors I ever experienced. I would rather call him an artist of his profession and magician . Scheduling is easy , no waiting time ever , all his co workers exhibit professionalism and very friendly . Just an atmosphere in the office is exceptionally friendly . If you like to joke you also would get a support in that . I had some work done recently as an extraction and started dental implant . No pain during or after , no swelling , no bleeding . I was just amused with outcome . Work was done carefully with X-ray panoramic type before and after this procedure . The price is reasonable . No hidden fees . I can not imagine anyone better then Dr Holtzman . He is the doctor to go to .

I’ve heard horror stories of wisdom teeth removals so I wasn’t happy when I was told I should remove mine. Dr. Holtzman removed all 4 of my wisdom teeth at once and I didn’t feel a thing. Later on I had some discomfort but by the next day I was out and about. Everyone I spoke to was surprised at how easy and quickly I recovered. The staff of this office is also very friendly. I highly recommended this office

Dr. Holtzman is fantastic! My family and I have been using him for over 20 years. He has always treated us with care, respect, and has always been very fair with his prices. He has always done his best to help. He has a great personality and makes you feel confortable. Extremely knowledgeable.. I have recommended Dr. Holtzman to my friends, who have also been very satisfied with his services. I would not trust any other oral surgent. He also has a great staff. All so pleasant and helpful.

Dr. Holtzman is an exceptional oral surgeon. He is professional, thorough, compassionate, caring and funny. How many patients don't mind having work done on their teeth? I LOVE going to his office. I went to him for two dental implants. His staff are equally wonderful. I felt so well taken care of during each visit and even after. I myself have been in the health care field for 40 years, and from this knowledgeable perspective, he has my highest recommendation.

When I first arrived in his office, I was very nervous. The nurse at the desk made me feel at ease. I only waited a few minutes to speak to the accountant, she was very polite and professional and assured me that I would be okay. The Doctor is gentle, friendly and professional. When it was time for my procedure I was still nervous and he made it very comfortable. I felt no pain at all. After the procedure they attended to me very well. I would recommend Dr.Holtzman and his staff to anyone.

In 3 visits I had all 4 wisdom teeth extracted. Each time, Dr. Holtzman gave me the best care I could expect. I have always been apprehensive about visits to the dentist. He helped me to relax and stay calm as he explained everything he was doing. He has a wonderful, caring disposition and a good sense of humor. The actual time it took for the procedures was very brief. Most recently had a top wisdom tooth pulled and was amazed that I didn't experience any pain after the numbness wore off !
