My father had been a patient of Dr. Holmes for years....was never recommended to get a colonoscopy. At 71, was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. Long story short, Dad died—could have been prevented by proactive care from this doctor. To this day, Dr. Holmes never met with me or my mother (...another former patient of his) even after we attempted to talk with him following Dad’s diagnosis.

Dr. Holmes is one of the most thorough, dedicated doctors I have ever had. He explains my diagnoses and treatment so I understand it, and doesn't rush me out of the room. A close family friend sees Dr. Holmes too - he saved his life. One of the best in town.

I went to see Dr. Holmes for my annual physical earlier this year. My insurance covers one visit with all the relevant blood-work and I have been doing it for many years with NO medical bill. I was waited for more than 30 minutes to see Mr. Special (Dr.) and he performed the routine exam one. I asked for a routine blood-test and it was not included in the report, with much of my surprise. The bill I got after a month was over $200 of my portion only. My insurance company told me that the wrong coding was done and thatâ??s made the bill so HIGH. I called at least half a dozen times to Dr. Holmes office but no fix. Finally, I was given a threat to pay the bill or else ready to face bad credit. Having no choice, I paid it off but these guys are HIGHLY unprofessional, lazy, and unethical. I shall NOT recommend this Dr. to anyone!!!

Has so much trouble with reading his computer that he spends most of visit on it and only listened to me only in distracted way. Needs new glasses and computer help.

He's a good trouble shooter, and that's important. wait times can be a bit long.

Dr. Holmes has been my dr. for almost 20 years and he has always diagnosed my problems correctly. He is also very ready to refer me to a specialist who could help more.

This Dr. needs to realize that he is not a qualified cardiologist or a gastrolenterologist and needs to refer out to qualified-english speaking doctors
