    My initial impression of Dr. Holtzman during my first and only exam on 10/28/24 was not an…read moreentirely positive one. I found his non-medical questions about my personal life unnecessarily intrusive. (I'd already been asked and answered a couple of those questions online as part of the required Zocdoc new patient intake by his office.) One of these was "What is your sexual orientation?" As with Zocdoc, I told him I was straight. He replied with a smile: "Maybe a straight guy who also sleeps with men?" (I believe his precise words were "Heterosexual meaning you like just women, or women and men?") Which left me slack-jawed. A couple unspoken thoughts crossed my mind in quick succession: "Huh? Wouldn't such a guy be a bisexual?" Followed by a recognition of his obvious insinuation, which I found as unprofessional as it was inaccurate. It may be appropriate for a physician to ask a patient's sexual orientation today (I'm 71), but hardly professional to suggest a different orientation to the patient. His next question was "When did you last have sex?" despite the fact that I came to this first office visit presenting no complaints, let alone symptoms, that might suggest an STD or anything else of a sexual nature. Frankly, I had to wonder what the dude's agenda was. He insisted on giving me a referal to his dermatologist colleague, despite my telling him I had seen two dermatologists ---working together--less than a year earlier as a part of the excision of a couple benign facial blemishes. Then when the results of my Qwest lab bloodwork of a week later came back, liver enzymes AST and ALT in my blood were abnormally high, so I messaged him for his interpretation. Unlike my previous PCPs, who would offer a brief interpretation via their patient portals, his terse response was: "See me." Which I interpreted as another office visit. Fortunately, I subsequnetly remembered that I had taken large doses of acetaminophen at the time of the blood draws due to cold symptoms, which temporarily elevates these enzymes' levels. (Mystery solved and money saved.) But I noted his attempt to turn my simple portal inquiry into a billable office visit, not (in fairness to him) unusual in today's profit-focused US medical industry. As physician/author Elizabeth Rosenthal has written: "The 'first do no harm' directive has been replaced with 'first leave no money on the table' ". In the year that followed, he cooperatively issued for me two gastroenterologist referrals with a recommendation for a colonoscopy, (although I should note that the first referral was for a gastroenterologist conncted to a facility from which a hospital approved post-sedated procedure ride home was unavailable to me, which limitation I had made very clear to him during the 10/2024 exam, thus the need for the second referral. In summary, I had no reason to question Dr. Holtzman's overall medical competence, but also no desire to remain in his practice.

    STAY AWAY! Completely disorganized and incompetent. Allowed me to book online with zero flags and…read morethen the morning of my appointment left me a voicemail telling that me new patients can't book online and cancelled my appointment for which I needed immediate medical care. Then when I saw a PCP (SHRINKHALA SWAROOP, NP) and had made it clear which insurance I had, the PCP referred me to a specialist that was outside my network and I am in the process of dealing with the hassle of trying to not pay $500 for this. I have never had a PCP refer me to a non-network specialist. Big surprise and I'm enduring a headache and pursuing legal options. Not impressed.

Dr. Yuko has compassion and takes the time to listen and understand your whole life, not just the physical pains. She is proactive with testing and medicine, always placing her patient's well being first. Dr. Yuko and Alex were an amazing team during COVID. I appreciate nurse Kat's straight-forward approach. Chanelle handles the front end with efficiency and a sense of humor. The team is truly wonderful!

I was in need of a new doctor and she was accepting new patients. Yuko is incredibly thorough and does not finish your visit until all questions are answered. You can tell she truly cares for her patients. I have since referred another friend to her and my husband is a patient of hers now as well. Dr. Yuko is kind and incredibly funny, which makes the entire experience much less stressful. There have been times where some of the people working in the office have been a little scattered (which I have experienced often at many other medical practices, so it happens) but her crew right now is awesome. If you want a doctor who honestly cares about you, as a person and a patient, I cannot recommend Dr. Yuko enough. She feels like a friend that you see every so often and for that I commend her efforts in making her practice a true family practice.
