Dr. Holm, I was thinking of you today while I was at the dentist here in Texas. I was your patient for about 10 years or so, until we had to move to here for my work. Anyway, I've seen two other dentists down here since I moved away in March 2014. I just want you to know that these other two dentists - independently - upon inspecting my teeth, ... each commented regarding the quality of your work; Cerec, fillings, crowns. They were both impressed and stated so! Personally, I always appreciated your passion for your work - and my teeth/gums. I was proud to hear those laudatory comments from your peers, Dentists who don't even know you, knowing that I had received the best treatment from you in the past. That said, I just wanted to drop this note to you so you would have that feedback.Edit: Got in touch with John and discussed. Read more

As a declared "Dentophobia" I can truthfully say that I have never experienced anything but kindness, patience, respect and the utmost care not to cause me any pain or discomfort at each and every appointment. Long time patient of Dr. Holm and will continue to be.

I know I'm in good hands as a patient with Dr. Nancy Holm, DDS. I have learned a lot about my oral hygiene and what impact I can have on my own and what I can count on her and her staff to provide for me. Her office and treatment is current and up to date when it comes to my health, but the personal interaction with the entire staff while you are there is "old school", meaning you are treated with respect and kindness on a personal level that you just don't see many places anymore. I would highly recommend them.

Having neglected dental care for close to 20 years, through the hard work, and positive attitude, and clear goals I have reached a point of recurring maintenance appointments. They do NOT belittle you about the your bad habits of the past, rather about making your future better. Good folks!

I always felt guilt before going to the dentist, especially when I knew I was going to be told that I did not do a good job cleaning my teeth. All the years that I have gone to Dr. Holm's office, I have never felt guilt. If my teeth are not perfectly clean they explain to me how to do a better job but there is never that "blame" for not doing it right. ...

Dr. Holm's team is amazing. There is always a smile when I arrive to the office, coffee!!!!, (of course), and the staff always ask about the family, how is my daughter doing in college, when is my mother coming to visit, how is work... they are always personal.

One thing that speaks for itself about Dr. Holm's practice is the fact that her team is consistent. They have been there for the longest time. Is not like other places where you see a different person every other month. I am used to her team and I know who they are, how they work, and how they treat me.

Dr. Holm is careful and through when she is doing her work. Whenever I go home after my appointment I know I do not have to go back because something is wrong. I am always happy, satisfied and feel good after seeing her.

Not everybody can say that their dentists have impacted their life, but I can.

About 5 years ago I had jaw surgery. After the surgery I had my regular follow up visits with the doctor. I also get my regular checks with my OB and my physician. The 3 of them missed a lump I had in my neck. It was Dr. Holm during her regular routine check the one who found it. She immediately contacted my doctors. None of them had a record of the lump. To make the story short I had to have the lump removed...if that does not impact somebody's life, I do not know what will impact it.

How do I feel about going to the dentist? I cannot answer that question, but I can tell you how I feel about going to Dr. Holm's. I feel important, I feel appreciated, I feel understood, I feel listened to, and I feel like truly SMILING. Read more

Best dental visits Dr. Holm and staff do an exceptional job of asking you about your mouth and tooth health goals and then FOLLOWING THROUGH! I had very deep grooves in my molars that easily filled with food and were difficult to clean. All other dentists I saw told me they'd just wait and watch and intervene when a cavity formed. Dr. Holm said that instead of waiting, why not prevent decay by widening the grooves to make them easier to clean and putting sealants in them to prevent cavities from forming? Genius. Bottom line: if you go there, you won't regret it!

- Marissa M.

I am a new patient. This is the first time I can truly say that I feel cared for - not just by Dr. Holm but by everyone in the practice. Thank you for everything!

- Suzan Sherman

Dr. Holm is the best dentist I have ever had. She is very professional and knowledgeable. For the first time in 50 years I know what is really happening with my teeth. I have always gone twice a year to my previous dentists but it was always very routine. Dr. Holm is very thorough and not only cleans and repairs my teeth but also has taught me what to do to keep them healthy. She cares for the well being her patients. Her customer service is the finest I have ever encountered. Thank you Dr. Holm for being there for me.

I am very happy with my yesterday's appointment with Kat, my hygienist. She has great hands, and is caring and knowledgeable. And a good sense of humor, which is always a plus :-) Dr. Holm provides excellent care for her patients. She and her staff is always learning and keeping up with new research and technology. Whenever I come to see Dr. Holm or one of her staff, I feel cared for. I know I can trust her with my dental care. Leah and Teri are always the absolute champions of helpfulness. BIG thank you to all of you.

No matter where we are- Florida or anywhere we will come back here. First time we came in 1999 it was awesome. Everyone is very pleasant and informative.

I always enjoy coming to the dentist, especially to see my dental hygienist, Katie. She's always so happy and puts a (visibly cleaner) smile on my face.

Always such a friendly staff of professionals! This place is simply awesome! ALL of the people are very friendly & professional. I would rate it a 12 out of a scale from 1-10!

- Gordy

My last appointment was very good as all my appointments have been. I always leave feeling more informed about my oral health and that it is going in a positive direction. And everyone here is so nice - it makes the visits very enjoyable.

- Anne

Your office is top notch. Wouldn't go anywhere else. We opted out of dental insurance because your office wasn't covered on the plan.

Always a pleasure! The whole team makes going to the dentists an enjoyable experience. I enjoy knowing how and why they do the things they do and they are happy to share.

- Jacob

In my personal opinion, Nancy Holm is probably one of the finest dentists in the state. It would be virtually impossible to receive better care than that which Dr. Holm provides. She is a caring, skilled professional who possesses a world of knowledge. Her dental support team is on the same elevated plateau of her practice. From the lovely receptionist to the skilled dental hygienists, they make a 'trip to the dentist's office' a somewhat pleasant experience.

The best part was the before and after pictures. I wish I had done it sooner.
I decided to give myself whiter teeth for my birthday. I was really apprehensive about using trays everyday for two hours. I thought it would be messy and uncomfortable, but it was a piece of cake. ...

Not only that, but people started noticing about the 5th day. One friend even asked me if I was whitening my teeth. I am really thrilled with the results. The best part was the before and after pictures. I wish I had done it sooner. Read more

I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am that Kandra has succeeded in inducing positive patient behavior change on my part where other dental professionals have not for 30 years. Until recently, ...

I had never developed a routine of flossing. It was not encouraged growing up and I just did not act on the messages that health care professionals attempted to give me for over three decades. Kandra was able to break through and achieve behavior change on my part through education and providing different options for devices to use. There were health implications and economic implications that finally came together for me. I t was frank talk, but not alarmist. That got me mentally engaged. Then she gave me the tools to get physically engaged and we were on our way. Thanks for continuing to invest in your practice. It shows. Read more

Whenever I go to Dr. Holm's office and have treatment done, it is always painless. And, I've had a number of different procedures done. I always like coming in.

Your are a great dental office. I will not change you guys for anything. Every time I come you are personal, you know what is going on with me, my family, you always make the effort to ask, and over everything, you HAVE NEVER made me feel guilty about my dental homecare.

Dr. Nancy Holm and her staff have made going to the dentist a more pleasant experience. They are professional, very friendly and I highly recommend them.
- Ferne Roesler
Waseca, MN

Going to the dentist had never been a pleasant experience for me. I had been told by others that root-planing procedures took up to 4 visits, was painful and they couldn't eat for 3 days because of the pain and swelling. My experience at Dr. Holm's office was very different – one visit and I could eat immediately after the procedure.

Dr Holm has taken such good care of me! She made such a great effort to give me the very best of care. She is so thorough and does not leave any detail out. The entire team is friendly and has made me feel very comfortable. I have always been anxious about going to the dentist, but Dr Holm has worked with me and my anxiousness has all but left! I sing her praise over and over again and highly recommend Dr Holm.

I have been most impressed with Dr Holm and her entire staff! The attention to detail and individualized care (including follow-up) make going to the dentist more like going to a "tooth spa!" I am new to Minnesota but have already been giving out referrals to colleagues in need of a good dentist.

It's a "friendly place, my girls love to go...they'd go monthly if I let them!"
Very caring and concerned about my dental health. I called Dr Holm with a dental emergency when I was out of town for a wedding in a rural community with no dentist. She walked me through what to do and even called me back later to check on me!
Before dentistry was "Something you just 'have' to do a couple of times a year... ... Felt just like a number in a file-not a personal relationship."
"High tech office, with a personal relationship-feel like the staff knows me and my treatment-friendly staff, state of the art treatments, up to date on current trends like my dental implants and restoration."

Everyone complimented me after and you could not even and can still not tell they are caps!
My caps on my two small front teeth had the biggest impact. These gave me a really nice smile and more confidence. My dental care here has helped me have clean and white teeth. I haven't had any cavities for awhile now and my teeth look the best that they have ever been! Everyone is very nice and knows you by name. You feel like they really want to do a good job at everything they do

That level of feeling cared for and personal attention creates loyalty and trust
What separates business today is the level of customer service they deliver. Excellence in a product or service is expected and high quality providers deliver at that level. ...

The beautiful bonding of my front teeth. I love my smile now! Thank you Nancy
When I met Dr Holm, I had I had (past) experiences ranging from, as a child-SCARY, to, as an adult, 'behind the times' and lacked in patient teaching. ...
When Dr Holm opened her own office it was easy to see that she was careful in hiring quality people! People who were eager to share their knowledge to insure and promote good oral hygiene, and who cared about you as an individual.
(What I like best?)
Everything! The people the professionalism, the quality care knowing your mouth is in good hands. The beautiful bonding of my front teeth. I love my smile now! Thank you Nancy and thank you for telling me about MI paste. Now I have my coffee plus white teeth!
They are the best! As people, as dental care professionals...I have no fear. I look forward to seeing friends, and know that I am in good hands. My teeth feel good and look good! Read more

I have never had a more pleasant dental experience in my 37 years of life. I have had a fear of going and I have extreme issues. I did not feel judged and I felt like I was the only patient around. It was just beyond superb and excellent. The office manager greeted me right off the bat and she knew my name!! I have never been in the place. I'm looking forward to getting better. And this is just unbelievable all around. I have never been more appreciative in terms of being important to the Dr. anywhere. There's just not a lot of healthcare providers around like this anymore. Outstanding.
