Dr Holt is kind, thorough, communicative, and always takes the time to connect with both me and my teenager. He makes a genuine effort to engage with my teen and consistently provides care that is thoughtful, individualized, and tailored to our needs.
Dr Holt has always been good to us! He was with my (now) toddler since she was a premie in the NICU at Valley Children’s. He works with her and understands she is autistic and is kind and patient with her
Dr Holt is very professional, but also friendly. He is taking excellent care of me.
We make the drive and do the wait for Dr. Holt
Very awesome doctor
Dr. Holt is always so kind, friendly, and efficient. I appreciate his enthusiasm and attentiveness with my child at every visit. Thank you Dr. Holt!
Visit took way too long….
Amazing experience with my 3 year old!
He has taken excellent care of my twin girls since they were at Valley Children's NICU. He takes the time to explain thoroughly treatment options and truly cares for his patients!
Knowledgeable, great with kids of all ages, and was able to detect what other eye doctors could not. My child’s vision is improving as a result. Thank you Dr. Holt. 😊
