Dr Holman is smart enough, but condescending and arrogant. At least, he was to me; dragged his personal baggage into my case. He is a cardiologist but started rendering opinions on my neurological/psychological condition, when what I needed was to know about my heart! Then he decided I was only having anxiety attacks and just needed to handle them. No suggestions on how, etc, or whether caffeine may have been a factor (it was). The fact that, in the end, I did not have a cardiac condition in no way warranted his attitude or treatment of me. He seems intelligent and competent, but if you alienate your patient, expertise only goes so far.
