Review for Dr. Sharma
I've had (unfortunately) a lot of doctor visits in the past 5 years and am amazed at how few doctors have good bedside manner. Dr. Holm is one of those few. She was always positive and informative. She delivered my daughter via emergency c-section and I am very grateful my daughter is here safely.

Review for Dr. Holm
Sean has treated my hand, shoulder, and hip in the last couple of years. He's never kept me waiting, and has alleviated my pain effectively. Highly recommend!

Review for Sean McDonald
He is all professional. Everything from beginning to end was upfront and organized. Within just a day of having surgery I felt awesome. I couldn't give him a higher review!
