Dr. Edward S Holt

Dr Holt lost a screw in my bone marrow that can never be retrieved. Worse than that is he did not tell me! I saw it on my X-rays! He said it was my fault because I have soft bones. The bone density test proved otherwise. I have complications including more surgeries from this mistake. Dr Holt, are you still in practice?

My 2 year old had what I thought was an ankle sprain. But dr. Holt was able to figure out he had an inflammatory disease and was able to point me to the appropriate dr to get the right treatment.

I ruptured my Achilles tendon in 2013 and Dr. Holt and his staff repaired it for me. He reassured me that he's done hundreds of these procedures and everything appeared to go as planned. I would highly recommend Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Specialists as they put me at ease during a fairly serious injury and carried out their work with the utmost professionalism. Thanks Dr. Holt!

I went to Dr. Holt on the recommendation (maybe even several) from local moms that had issues with their toddlers. My visit was SO not helpful. My then 20 month old clearly walks with a limp. He did xrays, etc. I had to force him to watch her walk at the end of the appointment, which he didn't think was important and said it was normal. Never explained anything and said nothing was wrong. Then took her to a podiatrist and he said something was missed by Holt and we are taking her up to a pediatric ortho. He was dismissive at best. Seems like he's either great for you or not. I was def not happy. EDIT: Went up to Sinai in Bmore to another ortho and she has juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. So yeah, he missed the boat.

Okay I get delays when your appointment time comes...perhaps the previous patient was late or the doctor was giving the patient the time needed for their injury BUT to take me 25 mins late then say you don't have time to discuss this further since you have other things you need to do in your office before leaving for the day...seriously. So I leave with more questions than I came with and no answer other than modify your lifestyle and injuries take time.

Following our daughter's very good result with hip surgery through Dr Broussard from this practice my husband went to Dr Holt for an ankle problem. Worst ever experience with a physician...ever..My husband had been critically ill for many months prior to this visit . He suffers with psoriasis and had been unable to take the medication for it due to his illness. Dr Holt was visibly disdainful of touching him, gave him a rx to brace his ankle . Although there was conversation regarding his knee as well the response was I don't do knees and he made a mad exodus from the room...NEVER heard from him again....NEVER. .There was never an element of humanity about the visit, nor was there ever eye contact. I would say if you are a person who requires ANY personal involvement this is not the doctor . Personally he could not work on my dog...

I highly recommend Dr Holt. He was very knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. He knew instantly the problem and how to fix it. I felt honored to be able to go to this very special orthopedic surgeon.

I'm trying to tell this story in as few words as possible without leaving out anything important. I went to the Ortho and Sports Med center last year after I injured my ankle on January 1st, 2015. I have been spraining my ankle for no reason since middle school. The reason I went in this time was because usually, it would just hurt all over, but I had a very intense pain in one specific spot. He told me he didn't "feel anything" when he was feeling my ankle, so he went ahead and told me to schedule surgery to strengthen my ankle. The first surgery date was six months later on June 17th...during the surgery, he realized I had a three inch split through my tendon - hence the intense pain! Recovery protocol was not followed for a tendon repair, only for the strengthening, so I was only kept NWB for 48 hours instead of 1-3 weeks, and I never had any kind of cast, just a walking boot, from day one. Fast forward to 8 weeks ago. I injured the same ankle in the same spot. I went in to see him and asked him to send me for an MRI this time so we could have a definite answer - he once again told me he didn't "feel anything" and told me to come back in 6 weeks if it was still hurting. Needless to say, I found a new doctor. The new doctor was shocked that he never did an MRI, which he should have done for the first injury, but ESPECIALLY with the reinjury. Would you like to guess who got sent for an MRI right away to find out if I split the exact saame tendon again?! Incredibly frustrating to know that I didn't get the proper treatment from the start. Could have saved me a year of pain. Seems uninterested, doesn't spend time, and doesn't listen. Would not recommend to anyone.

Holt did my surgery last year to strengthen my ankle, but disregarded the fact that I told him I had intense, localized pain on the side of my ankle because he didn't feel anything when he felt my ankle. Turns out, six months later when my surgery date finally arrived, I had a three inch split through my tendon. I reinjured it this year, came back, and he once again didn't feel anything. Never sent me for an MRI, 1st or 2nd time. Found new doctor. Split same tendon again!

Dr. Holt treated my 20 year old daughter as if she was seeking drugs. She went to him for extreme pain in her ankle that she sprained repeatedly. He said he didn't feel anything and refused to send her for an MRI. He scheduled her for strengthening surgery 6 months later. She visited him multiple times and get the surgery sooner to no avail. During surgery he found at 3 inch tear in her tendon. She is having trouble again and her NEW doctor sent her for an MRI right away. Waiting for results

My son went in for a tiny piece of glass in his foot. He is 15 and walked around on it for a month not knowing a piece was still in there until it became inflamed. We went to Dr. Holt, and the first thing he said is he needs surgery so go ahead and get that scheduled. I asked that he try in office, which he did with no luck. HE gave my son an orthopedic shoe and crutches which were not needed. Got 2nd opinion and doc got glass out in 5 min. Dr Holt wanted my son under general anesthesia!
