Dr. Holland was on time, personable & I could tell he was familiar with my knee joint issues.
Sep-2024
I was ready to make an appointment with the surgeon who could operate. On either a rotator cuff or a reverse shoulder or just a cleansing of my arthritis. I was also hoping maybe to get me through this discomfort. I could get a Cortizone shot. Nothing was offered , just three brochures on shoulder analysis you recommended. The nurse assistance that take his phone calls for new patients should clearly tell those patients that he doesn’t do operations anymore! I had the MRIs, and of course, the doctor that analyze them explained to me what my problems were, and I needed to go to a surgeon, and sadly that’s what I thought I was doing, now I’m gonna get a bill for everything I already knew with no solution. Other than that, he seemed like a great guy.

I've been an athlete all my life and when not competing, my wife and I lead an active, adventurous lifestyle.
So choosing the right Orthopedic Physician for my initial non surgical knee care and treatment plan, and now for my total knee replacement, is vitally important to us.
Dr Holland's professionalism, knowledge, and sincere strait forward approach to a plan that best suits my goals and our lifestyle is appreciated more than he probably realizes.

Oct-2023
I love him. I wanted my appointment to have him check the excruciating pain in my shoulder and foot, but the receptionist who scheduled the appointment would not let me. She said I had to pick one. I asked Dr. Lawrence if he would look at my foot and shared my dilemma with the receptionist. He went ahead and took care of both. He said that is what we are here for, and it felt like he really cares about his patients. I got a lump in my throat, and I will never forget this. I love him to the moon and back.
