He is the best. Would not go to anyone else, I have had a knee replacement done by him and it worked out really well, hip replacement there by someone else there, it's doing great, would not go anywhere else, I am 70 years old, need some more orthopedic work done, got some referrals from Dr. Holstrom, I am still kicking 😊

I appreciated how the PA and physician worked together as a team. They listened to me and gave me options aligned with my goals. They shared evidence-based likely outcomes based on my age and activity level. I felt like they were very sympathetic to this middle-aged athlete who wants to get back to doing the things I love without pain.
