Can't say I don't miss Dr. Holman but Dr. Harbold was quick and a pleasure to chat with. Easy transition!

Review for Dr. Harbold

Dr. Harbold was perfectly on time, very engaging and helpful. So glad I found his office!

Mar 20 2024

Review for Dr. Harbold

Doc is efficient and uses liquid nitrogen to take care of pre-cancerous spots so that a return appointment for treatment is not needed. That is important to me. However, the wait time was good.

Review for Dr. Harbold

He catches little spots and treats them quickly. He explains things well and is very personable! One of my favorite doctors.
