I now find myself again in his capable hands with another dangerous condition and have absolute confidence that he will provide the best treatment possible. I have a renewed hope of healing.

I've been seeing Dr. Holland about 15 years. He and his staff keep a close watch on my hairy cell leukemia. Recently I developed a melanoma on my back that a surgeon (Dr. Alvero Valle) surgically removed; and Dr. Holland and he are following my melanoma case. BTW: Dr. Valle is excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend both of these men.

Dr Holland was the only doctor who was able to treat me effectively during a recent medical emergency. Several others tried and failed. His humor and bedside manner are excellent.
