I have been with Dr. Holden for 5 years. Dr. Holden and the entire staff is so wonderful. He listens to you and does what ever he can to make you feel comfortable. Never rushes you. Walks each patient to chemo and checks on you during chemo. Has a great bedside manor. I would and have recommended to friends and family. Thank you OHA for being there for each and every patient that walks through your doors

From my first consultation to my ongoing cancer treatment and care, Dr. Roger Holden was incredibly thorough, skilled, and genuinely compassionate. As I became acquainted with Dr. Holden, I knew I was in the best hands possible with regard to my advanced cancer. He made me feel welcome and HIS confidence, warmth, commitment and credentials made me feel that he would focus like a freight train on my recovery and that he was an outstanding and very qualified physician. Dr. Holden is a high energy, enthusiastic, and intelligent individual. He has great communication skills, a great bedside manner and pours 100% into his practice and his lucky patients. My personal situation was evaluated and in a straightforward manner, Dr. Holden offered a clear explanation of his proposed recommendations and actions. I quickly realized that he was a take charge individual. In time, I was in need of a urologist and a neurologist. Dr Holden immediately referred me to suitable, quality, and proper,… experts. CANCER is terrifying! Dr. Holden came to my aid quickly and acted with urgency, yet was still very reassuring and kept me calm. I am forever grateful for his skillful intervention and the remarkable outcome I experienced under his care. He truly went above and beyond. I HAVE BEEN GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE, AND FOR THAT, I AM TRULY INDEBTED. An extraordinary physician, vast medical knowledge, tireless efforts, unwavering dedication and an all around good human being. GOD BLESS YOU DR. HOLDEN!!!!! Joe Tonyan/cancer survivor

Holden refuses to wear a mask or take any precautions whatsoever in the middle of a pandemic with 100k Americans dead. Part of the problem right here.
