Dr Holencik cares about her patients and it shows in the time she takes to address every aspect of a health concern. She is amazing!
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/8/2025
She spent time with me and explained what she wanted to do. But I never heard from her after the Ultrasound. I saw the report but don't understand what it means. I feel she should have called me to discuss the results.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/18/2025
I have been dealing with a problem for 5 years Dr H is the first doctor to really look for answers
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/11/2025
I have never been treated better than any other Doctor.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/16/2025
Dr Holencik has been my primary care physician for maybe 15 years and has diagnosed and guided my health care in a most helpful way. I appreciate and trust her with my care.
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/13/2025
For the exam, the doctor did not look at my throat or ears. Also, did not check my thyroid. My last exam was 4 months ago, and she did not check them at that time too.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/13/2025
Best provider I've ever had
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/11/2025
It wasn't the easiest situation, with my son there who reported his concerns, but the doctor made it simple and gave a lot of support to both of us, and plenty of good ideas without being too intrusive.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/2/2025
I have recommended the facility to several people since my first visit.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/24/2025
[...] I'm very comfortable with Dr. Holencik
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/21/2025
Dr. Holencik always listens and considers what I say
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/19/2025
Her delivery is always direct but today she was more so, edgy
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/14/2025
[...] is great!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/11/2025
Dr. Holencik understood my concerns about age related mental health problems and assured me that we would be proactive about any newer testing that could become available. She explained the process of getting access to new tests. I felt relieved of the stress I was experiencing from waiting for a specific test to be considered for me.

Dr. H knows her stuff.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/26/2025
My second visit with Dr. Holencik and I am pleased with her.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/26/2025
The doctor ordered bloodwork and never followed up. Even after I set a message to her through the portal, no response, even through my results are above the normal range.
