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.

Does not listen. Does not speak to patient, only to companion. Dismissive of past media claims history claiming other Drs did not know what they were doing. Told us 3 times that I had zero memory issues. Very condescending. Sanctimonious. I do not recommend him at all.

Dr. Hollensworth was very gracious to help us with our disabled son when he was in the hospital back in Dec of 2018, and our son has been seeing him ever since. We are happy with our care, and gladly refer others to him.

Dr. Hollensworth: has no interest in his patients. I'm not sure he has the ability to engage in a meaningful, professional discussion with his patients. I recently requested my medical records from Dr. Hollensworth's office. Upon examination of the records, I found numerous errors and blatant false statements about my health and physical exam. In addition, he billed my insurance company for services he did not provide. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT TRUST THIS Dr.!!!!!!!!! Filing a complaint.

I had been to 3 other Neurologists who each dismissed my symptoms as anxiety but Dr. Hollensworth actually cared enough to take time to listen and helped find the cause of the problem. I am now symptom-free and back to living life my way.

I went to see him with memory and cognitive problems. He diagnosed me with dementia based on a very brief test and an MRI, in which he said he saw tangles. It turns out that after three and one half years, I have clinical depression, not dementia. I took expensive drugs and had extreme mental anguish all that time, but he just kept talking to my wife, not me, and did no retesting. I have filed a formal complaint.

I went with my sister, who is the patient, to office visits with Dr. Hollensworth. She has problems remembering and gets confused. Dr. Hollensworth was very cordial and included me without miminizing my sister's participation. He seemed to be genuinely concerned about her symptoms and ordered follow-up tests. He helped me understand Parkinson's and the uniqueness of it to each patient.
