    I have been seeing Dr. Holaday for 2 years now. He was the first doctor I saw once reports came back as cancer. He guided me and explained everything to me in a very calm manner. He did my surgery and I continue to have follow ups with him. He shows great concern about my health and always spends time discussing my future treatments. I have recommended Dr. Holaday to others that are in the same situation as I have been in. He is the Best!

    I was happy with my visit, but somebody from that office was supposed to call me to confirm my surgery date, but they never called me. So maybe I have to call on Monday. So I would like a response, like you know, whether they are going to call me, they are confirming, so I would appreciate that. Thank you.
