Holmes William J Md's Online Review Report Card

Negligent, Unethical and Reckless

Dr Holmes seemed rushed and distracted. That’s what the surgeon who had to fix his work said. We were shocked looking at the X rays at how sloppy and incompetent the work he did was. Unethical. Sloppy Careless. Holmes.

he is in a hurry all the time like he has somewhere much more important to be.  he made crucial errors according to medical professionalsI required a second surgery after being hastily worked on. upon discussing my situation I found that not only was I not alone a line had been crossed ethically and willful negligence took place.

Office is never available. Lied to me several times about referral denial because I need to be seen in Sacramento. They want the business and need money I guess. Poor communication

Rebuilt my knee. Can run.👍

'Dr Holmes seemed rushed and didn't have time for any questions My surgery had to be re done by another physician. I felt that he didn't do all he could have to insure a successful outcome. I would caution anyone not to use his services

Sloppy and reckless with questionable ethics, Dr Holmes suffers a poor reputation in the local medical community.

This office and their staff are the absolute worst! They do not want to help or care for patients. We called to schedule a follow up appointment for an initial surgery and was told he does not accept our insurance (even though discharge paper work said to follow up with him and he was sending orders for home health services). It took a podiatrist calling his office to even get an appointment. Following the appointment they said they needed a referral which had already been processed...so basically making every excuse not to do the surgery. Do not go to this Dr.

Dr. Holmes performed both of my total knee replacement surgeries this past year, and I can't say enough about my experience.  His office got me in for my initial appointments quickly and had me scheduled for surgery within a week.  I experienced very little post surgical pain, and was well recovered within a month after each surgery.  I had knee pain for years before seeing Dr. Holmes, and now I'm pain free!  Great doctor, great staff, incredible experience overall.  I highly recommend this guy to anyone needing knee replacement surgery!

I RATED DR/ HOLMES FEW DAYS AGO. TODAY'S MEETING WAS MUCH BETTER, HE SPENT SOME GOOD TIME WITH US , EXPLAINING TO US THE BROKEN SCREWS IN MY BONE AND THE PLATE'S MOVEMENT. IN THE PAST I SAW HIM FOR LESS THAN HALF MINUTE, TODAY HE TOOK HIS TIME AND EXPLAINED TO US WHY AND HOW AND WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO MY BROKEN FEMUR AFTER HIS SURGERY AND THE REASON WHY THE SCREWS THAT WAS HOLDING MY METAL PLATE GOT BROKEN AND THE SHIFTING OF THE PLATE THAT SUPPORTED MY BROKEN BONE. AS OF NOW I AM ACCEPTING HIS EXPLANATION, HOPING FOR THE BEST AND HOPING TO AVOID ANOTHER SURGERY. I AM GLAD THAT HE TOOK THE TIME TO EXPLAIN TO ME ALL OF MY CONCERNS.
