I have been seeing Dr. Holmwood for many years. He did my cataract surgery and it went perfectly. He is very through and dedicated. I do hope he stays for a long time.
Dr. Holmwood was very thorough and took extra time to explain my pending eye surgeries and what I should expect. All of his assistants went out of their way to be sure we felt comfortable and received very complete examinations.
