Dr HH is a good doctor. She takes time to listen, assesses my symptoms, asks me about things going on in my life while examining my joints. She has always shown compassion, understanding, and thorough explanations about my illness. I have followed her guidance, adding swimming to my busy life, taking meds as needed, and my symptoms have improved. She told me I'm doing all the right things on my last two visits, and when I spoke to her about my stress triggers, she acknowledged them as situational stress, normal and lifted my spirit by saying I am proactively taking care of myself. Her advice, treatment plan, and compassion for having chronic pain while working full time as a mother and wife is exactly what I need to stay positive and proactive about my Fibromyalgia. Her staff is courteous, prompt, and work to get me in faster if I have a concern. Thank you Dr. HH!

AFTER READING THE ABOVE COMMENTS IT SURE DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THE SAME DOCTOR I'VE TAKEN MY MOTHER TOO AND I ATTEND ALL OF HER APPOINTMENTS WITH HER. THIS DOCTOR IS NEVER ON TIME AND HER STAFF MAKES EXCUSES FOR HER THAT SHES STUCK IN TRAFFIC. IVE GOTTEN THAT ONE EVERY TIME IVE BEEN THERE. WHEN SHE DOES FINALLY SHOW UP SHE NEVER EVEN POPS HER HEAD IN THE ROOM TO SPEAK TO MY MOTHER. I CAN COUNT ON ONE HAND THE AMOUNT OF TIMES WE'VE ACTUALLY SPOKEN TO THE DOCTOR AND MY MOM GOES TO THE DOCTOR MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR TREATMENTS. TO TOP IT ALL OFF SHE'S A PILL PUSHER AND IS ALWAYS WRITING A NEW SCRIPT FOR A PAIN MEDICATION. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE AND TO SHOW SHE PAYS ABSOLUTELY NO ATTENTION THE OTHER DAY SHE WROTE THREE SCRIPTS FOR HER AND SIGNED ALL OF THEM INCORRECTLY. THE SCRIPTS COULDNT GET FILLED B/C THE DOCTORS SIGNATURE WAS AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM. WHEN ITS ONLY SUPPOSED TO BE AT THE BOTTOM AND THE PATIENTS NAME AT THE TOP. I AM VERY UNSATISFIED WITH HER AND WILL BE SWITCHING IMMEDIATELY.

I have had several Rheumatologists and she is by far the best! She is in a group practice of good doctors. She really takes her time to get to know you. She is very easy to talk to and explains things well. Promptly calls back when you leave a message. Sometimes the wait is long (not always) I think because she takes her time with her patients. Takes patients for late office hours one night a week. Office staff is wonderful.

Mr. Hawkins Holt was extremely competent and her bedside manner was exceptional. She gave me a difficult and unpleasant diagnosis and handled my response with grace and dignity. She even gave me a hug. Her treatment options were well explained and she followed up with a phone call promptly with an answer to a question that I had. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
