Dr. Heather Holden is professional, knowledgeable, caring and generous with her time. During appointments, she listens and asks questions that let me know she is hearing what I say, and thinking of every possible solution. She explained all the new policies regarding controlled pain medications, which I am certain many of her patients are prescribed. She does not make me feel like an addict for requesting a reasonable dosage, given my pain level. She does encourage a gradual reduction, if I ever feel that I may not need as much help, in the future. This shows she is a responsible doctor, who wants only the best for her patients. If you, or someone you care about is in need of a Rheumatologist, I am sorry that is the case, but rest assured Dr. Holden will provide the care needed to minimize joint damage and suffering, while maximizing quality of life.
