Like that there are other locations to see doctor. When I checked in I was told that my paperwork was filled out for my work in order to get paid while out recovering. Day of surgery I felt so calm and staff treated me kindly. Was explained process over and over. My husband went back after he took me home. I had extra bleeding so they were nice enough to give him a sizable amount of gauze and large bandages.

I trust very, very few doctors because it seems like most of them up there at Kennestone wing it, they just wing it. Dr. Holcomb knows what he's talking about. I trust him wholeheartedly with whatever decision he decides to make for me. That is somebody I truly believe in. The nursing staff, the assistants, everybody, every single person up there is top notch. This is my favorite office I've ever been to.

Seeing a surgeon is an anxiety provoking experience, but Dr. Holcomb put me at ease. He wanted to know about me rather than just looking at test results. I think he is a remarkable doctor and I can't say enough good things about him. I would have total confidence if I were to require surgery. So grateful to him.
