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.

Thank you
Dr Holland is very professional and knowledgeable. My teen’s surgery went well and is now cleared for all sports.

He is warm, thoughtful, and clearly knows what he’s doing. He put me at ease and I feel like I am in good hands. Clearly knowledgeable. Both times that I have seen him. He has been on time, he doesn’t rush me and allows for all my questions to be answered and my concerns to be expressed. I would recommend him without hesitation. His staff is very professional as is he.

My knee surgeon
Years ago when he was the Seahawks doctor he operated on my knee. I wanted at least one more visit while he is still in his working years to ask questions in person. I recommended him to my patients when I was in practice because I knew they would get great care.

Highly recommend!
I chose Dr Holland for my total knee replacement surgery due to his well known surgery skills and many years of successful experience. I have needed his services post surgery and he has been unfailingly kind and generous with his time. I have complete trust in Dr Holland and am very thankful that he is my surgeon.

Dr Holland is thorough, patient and conversant. He examined my knee, explained his potential diagnoses and ordered radiographs which we read within about 15 minutes. He subsequently ordered an MRI for additional imaging to confirm his diagnosis.
