Rude bedside manner, constantly interrupts and even takes phone calls during your annual 5-minute personal appointment! Rarely sees patients himself and makes a diagnosis without even listening to your history. Office staff is uncaring and cold. Recently got billed $50 for a "missed appointment" that I didn't even make...they totally made it up. I'm complaining to the Medical Review Board. Go to someone who actually cares about his patients. I wasted 2 years and countless $$ on this guy as a patient. Don't make the same mistake!

I love his sense of humor, and he is an excellent dr. He is well worth the long drive. He always remembers all the specifics about me and our past visits. I only wish he was closer to where I live.

Absolutely extraordinary positive experience with Dr. Holiner and his team in an area of medicine that can be extremely sensitive and even embarrassing in particular in my opinion for men. My initial extreme stress over showing up for my first appointment was quickly relieved as Dr. Holiner's staff was so caring and courteous. More importantly, the care provided to me in an extremely difficult and highly "challenging" phase of my life greatly accelerated my ability to work through my "challenges". The Holiner Group allowed me to see that extreme stress, lack of focus, and even borderline depression was not a result of weakness or a lack of manliness on my part, but rather a result of physical changes in my brain chemistry and my nervous system as a result of significant trauma. I no longer stigmatized myself as a loser, a weakling, and an extremely poor excuse for a man. Medications to support me in getting back to my normal state of being was not something to be ashamed of, but rather just a tool and resource to return me to my normal happy and loving state of being. Words alone can't express fully the deep gratitude I have for Dr. Holiner and his extreordinary staff. Go see him if you're struggling. It will be very worth your while!

Holiner Group, specifically Dr Chauveson, freely prescribes dangerous amphetamines (adderal, Vyvanse) & in my experience is nothing short of a pill house, operating under the guise of "MD", or as I call it "Medical Dealers"

My former wife was handed dangerously additive amphetamines, after only a 30 minute interview with the doctor. She was told by another patient to simply say " I have trouble concentrating" Despite the fact that she had been recently released from drug treatment in the past year for prescription pill addiction (treated for 5 months), Holiner group readily provideded her large quantities of amphetamine, and in dosages of 2 times the FDA maximum dosage.

Numerous doctors andi staff would routinely call in her prescriptions & there were several pharmacies being used under aliases - yet all prescriptions written by various staff and doctors at Holiner.

My family and the children have gone through hell over the past 2 years, battling to protect the children from neglect and abuse, stemming from kbdelusional behaviors and choices that that much amphetamine produces over time.

Holiner Group continued to prescribe this medication, A court ordered evaluation by a separate psyciatist, which said Holiner should not have prescribed narcotics to a known addict, and should cease doing so & that my formers wife (82 lbs at the time) was not ADHD and was not properly diagnosed.

Despite the above, Holiner group continued and continues to prescribe to her these amphetamines, and barbiturates and narcotic sleeping pills.

Not only has Holiner's malpractice cost this family hundreds of thousands of legal $$, but the family has been destroyed and 2 children's lives are forever altered & they suffer emotionally as a result.
