Patient Testimonials

It goes without saying that Dr. Holcomb's staff is par excellence. You are greeted with respect and professionalism. Personally, of utmost importance was to trust my face to a doctor who was as much of a perfectionist as I. Numerous post op visits are a testament to Dr. Holcomb's adherence to making sure the doctor and patient are completely satisfied. Not only did Dr. Holcomb deliver my expectations, but his meticulous precision resulted in an outcome that not only pleased me as his patient but also reflected the outcome of his artistic expertise. I highly recommend Dr. Holcomb without reservations.

I am 2 1/2 weeks post op and could not be happier!! From consultation to post op appointments, the staff and Dr. Kreithen have been amazing. Staff is always available to speak to you when you have questions; his bedside manner is amazing, and everyone there is pleasant and accommodating. I have been pain-free, and this experience has been seamless. If I ever consider any treatment or surgery again, it will definitely be at this office!

I have had an astounding experience with Dr.Kreithen! From the beginning, he was very knowledgeable and informative. Throughout the entire process, they were easily available to contact with any questions I may have had. Their office is located in a very nice area with its own parking garage right next door, making it very convenient upon arrival for each appointment. The results he gave me well exceeded my expectations, and I could not be more pleased!

Dr. Kreithen gave me an arm lift in June. I am so pleased with the results. The surgery went well and was almost pain-free. The office staff is wonderful and caring. I highly recommend this procedure…and Dr. Kreithen. The scar is fading and flat and will almost disappear. Thank you so much, Dr. Kreithen.

Dr. Kreithen and everyone on his staff were amazing throughout my entire process. I had a lower body lift and LOVE the results. I did have some minor issues being allergic to medication, but I always felt so taken care of by him and the team. Always available for a call for questions or a last-minute appointment to see me. There was no question in my mind who I would go to for the other procedures I want.

Dr. Kreithen had a great bedside manner. He is great at what he does. My BA was beautifully done and his team was awesome.

Dr. Kreithen did a fantastic job on my breasts. I am an older woman who had implants 10 years ago. It was embarrassing for me at my current age to request new ones. I'm so glad I did. Dr. Kreithen assured me it was a small office procedure, and it was. I was virtually pain-free and look and feel much better. The symmetry is much improved, and the texture is soft and supple. Thank you Dr Kreithen. The old implants had hardened.

Dr. Kreithen spotted something from a prior MRI done in 2017 & 2019. He basically has saved my life. Having had breast implants for 32 years and suffering from fibromyalgia for the past 15 years, the decision was made to explant. Dr. Kreithen also did what is called En bloc. He is a true artist and perfectionist. I had a revision a few months later for extra skin removal. From consultation, Kristine, the coordinator, to the entire staff and surgical staff, I was treated like a family member. Trust is important when choosing your plastic surgeon. There is no doubt you can put your surgical needs in Dr. Kreithen's hands. I am now 6 months post op and feel the best I have felt in years. Thank you to Dr. Kreithen and his entire staff.

Dr. Holcomb is a gifted surgeon who will make you look your best. I've had 3 procedures and am delighted with all 3. I especially have to commend his staff... Lauren and Leslie at the front desk are extremely knowledgeable on all the procedures, professional, and always pleasant during your visit. Becki, the scheduler, is on top of her game, super knowledgeable, and professional as well. All of the staff at the office have been a true pleasure during my many visits.

Doctor Kreithen and his staff are the absolute BEST. Caring, friendly, efficient, and my surgery outcome is the best. After surgery I had ZERO pain, recovery was easy, follow ups are great, and very informative. I HIGHLY recommend HOLCOMB KREITHEN PLASTIC SURGERY

If I could give a 10-star rating, I sure would. I had both Dr. Kreithen and Dr. Holcomb perform procedures on me in March. Dr. Kreithen LISTENED TO my husband and me and HEARD us. This was my 4th procedure for the same thing, and HE GOT IT. I have not had one pain or swelling; as a matter of fact, I have to remember that I had had something done there. He has a great bedside manner, is very caring, and open to hearing anything you have to say or ask. I am so incredibly happy, FINALLY. Dr. Holcomb did my lower face lift and lower lids. I am a work in progress, but I am so thrilled with the look I have already. He is gentle and very caring. He treats you like you are a friend , but also very professional and gets down to business to make sure you are healing on target. Of course, the week of my surgery, COVID-19 made its way into our everyday lives. This office certainly did not let you feel anxious about the outside world; they treated me like I was the only one that mattered at that moment. Once my stitches were out, all of the appointments had to be canceled (understandably) if I had any questions or concerns (which anyone who had just had surgery would). They called me, emailed me, kept in touch with me, and made me feel so at ease. I went back for a check this past week, and all is FABULOUS. I can't say enough about this office. I am a KEEPER.

They say breast reduction patients are among the happiest of plastic surgery patients. I am very happy with my decision to go with Holcomb Plastic Surgery. I am pleased with the healing and outcome! Dr. Kreithen is a highly qualified plastic surgeon. The surgery itself usually takes two to four hours. I woke up with no pain and was given detailed instruction & medication for healing properly. I am a small person (5ft). My breast size ranged 34DD- 34DDD. I was reduced to size 32/34C, size small. My new breast are now proportioned to my height and body. My clothes fit me better, and I have much less back and shoulder pain. It has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Dr. Kreithen at Holcomb Plastic Surgery is the place to go for comfort, quality, and professionalism.

My daughter who had her breast done by Dr. Kreithen told me to go to him for the type of surgeries I was wanting to have done. He did a beautiful job with her breast implants. I had both a Mastopexy and an Abdominoplasty surgeries done by Dr. Kreithen. My breast were reduced and lifted and I had a tummy tuck. I had both surgeries done at the same time in late April 2019 and I LOVE the outcome of both surgeries. Dr. Kreithen was professional and answered any questions I had about both of my surgeries. Dr. Kreithen's staff was professional and so helpful when answering any questions and concerns I had. It has been three months since the surgeries and I am still amazed at how both surgeries changed my body. My stomach is smooth and flat and Dr. Kreithen gave me a beautiful belly button. My breast now are a perfect size for me. Dr. Kreithen is truly a masterful plastic surgeon.

Had a BA in 12/2017 and decided on Dr. Kreithen. I had been planning on BA for 7-8 years, had a couple of consultations with others, but just did not feel 100% about the surgeons I saw. After meeting the staff and this Dr., I decided to go through with the procedure. Also, received great feedback and recommendations from others; he was the most recommended. I'm so glad I did. 8 months later, I'm more than happy with my results. I've recommended to a friend who lives out of state, who, lol, is as picky as I am.

I found all the staff very professional, kind, and helpful which is a big plus . I have no negative feedback which is why I give 5+ stars

Dr. Holcomb is an incredible rhinoplasty surgeon. I'm at about 9 months post op, so pretty much all of the swelling is gone, and I could not be more happy. I'm sure most people don't want to tell anyone when they've had a rhinoplasty but I'm so happy with it, I want everyone to see the before and after. It truly is an art and Dr. Holcomb is an incredible artist. So incredibly satisfied!

I have only had positive experiences within this office, having utilized all the different services that they offer. Dr. Kreithen is a very skilled and caring surgeon. I first saw him in 2003, and was very pleased with my results. I've had facials/skincare appt's, injections with Kim Daly who is a true master at what she does, Ultherapy in 2015 with amazing results, so much so that I have another appt for it set up. The staff from front reception area to back, are all friendly, courteous and helpful. Care Credit is also available, so everyone can take advantage of having the best board certified surgeons, and staff available in the Sarasota area.

Dr. Holcomb is the only one I let do my Botox. I have a short forehead, which can be difficult to do with an untrained provider. The entire office is professional and polite. Would recommend seeing any provider in the office! 

Truly the most professional and skilled plastic surgery practice in the area! Truly everything you would ever want in a doctor. I had a tummy tuck with Dr. Kreithen and LOVE my results! Dr Holcomb, Marisol, Kathleen and Kim keep my face looking youthful! Love this team!

I recently had eyelid surgery and laser treatment under my eyes done by Dr. Holcomb. Dr. Holcomb is very professional and friendly. He always asked if there were any questions or concerns that I had at my follow up appointments. I love my results! All the nurses, front office, and surgical support staff are very professional and make you feel very well taken care of. I would totally recommend Dr. Holcomb to any of my friends and family. Also a special thanks to Tina and Jackie who took such good care of me and always made me feel comfortable. Also thanks to All the consulting staff for being so welcoming.

Dr. Kreithen has been doing my Botox for about five years. I would never ever consider going to see another doctor. He is masterful at what he does! Always uses only a limited amount to achieve the perfect result. I don't even need numbing cream because he is so gentle.

I had a breast reduction completed by Dr. Kreithen, in January. Before surgery I stopped drinking heavily on coffee. I cut back to drinking 1/2 cup to a cup of coffee a day for almost 2 months before surgery. The caffeine helps(ed) reduce the cysts in the breast. I'm not a drinker for alcohol, and a non smoker. Post surgery the one thing that hurt the most was my buttocks. It's because the OR table is long and narrow, so make sure when your recovering you have a pillow or a donut to sit on. My chest was sore but tolerable. I was swollen for 2 months. Post surgery the things I noticed right away was, no migraines, no neck, back, or shoulder pain. I was back to physical exercise in 2 weeks. I went back to work 3 weeks after surgery, no heavy lifting took about 2 months. You will want to sleep in a recliner for about a week. Make sure to take the nausea pills before surgery. Dr Kreithen, puts you at the correct size that he discussed before surgery. I went from a G-H down to a D. Dr. Kreithen has great bedside manner.

Dr Holcomb is an excellent surgeon I had a facelift and laser skin resurfacing. I feel 10 years younger and am very pleased with the result

Dr Kreithen gets my best recommendation for anyone looking for a talented plastic surgeon. Very happy with the results of my procedure. He knows what he is doing and I am a happy patient.

My experience with Dr. Kreithen was amazing. I originally made two consultation appointments with different doctors to shop around but after my first appointment with Holcomb & Kreithen I cancelled my other appointment. I knew immediately this was the right place for me. Kristine, the surgery consultant contacted me first and set up an appointment. She was amazing through this whole process. I felt like every staff member I dealt with was professional and friendly. Every appointment I had was on time I also never felt rushed. I am extremely pleased with my results and would highly recommend Holcomb & Kreithen!

Dr. Kreithen is amazing. I saw him for Botox, and he did a great job. He is an artist with the needles, so I felt no pain. I had no bruising, and all my wrinkles were blurred away. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking into injectables but doesn't want pain or discomfort. He will make you look beautiful without the pain! 

Dr. Holcomb and his staff are the best. I had a very positive experience and I'm thrilled with the results of my procedures.

Dr. Kreithen did an amazing job on my tummy tuck! I absolutely love the results. The office is clean and beautiful, all the staff have been so kind and respectful, and follow-up care has been great. If I needed anything, they were right there to help me and always made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend him! Thank you Dr Kreithen!!

I am so thrilled with the results. it helps with The helium plasma laser procedure took away years of smoking and sun, damage, The staff and everybody in the office went beyond to make me feel comfortable and do the follow up. I would recommend Dr. Holcomb highly to anyone.

After contemplating breast augmentation for years, I couldn't be more happier with my decision to choose the best Doctor in the Sarasota area, Dr. Kreithen. My new gals are perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Dr. Kreithen is an incredible surgeon, and the staff that works alongside him is just as incredible. I went to him to see if he could fix some awful scars on my breasts from a previous surgery done by a different doctor. The scars were the result of a difficult recovery from an extensive surgery. I waited 2 years to have the scars addressed, and I wasn't able to get into contact with my previous surgeon (long and frustrating story), so I researched surgeons in the Tampa Bay area, and that's when I found Dr. Kreithen at his Sarasota location. From the minute he walked into the consultation room, he was professional and kind, and never made me feel like he was promising results that were impossible to achieve. That was comforting to me because there is no such thing as scar removal, only improvement in the appearance of a scar, and I didn't want a surgeon to promise me perfection only to be left disappointed. After discussing things with my husband, we decided to move forward and had the procedure scheduled for the first week of June. Every step of this process was enjoyable, including the surgery. I had nearly zero pain, the nurses and techs made me feel like a queen, and all of my follow-up appointments have been wonderful. I have never felt anything but absolute care for my wellbeing and outcome from Dr. Kreithen and his staff. Now the scars, let's just say they look absolutely beautiful! He really worked a miracle, and he exceeded any kind of expectations I could have ever had. I am only 2 months into my recovery, and I can't wait to see what my scars look like in 6 months. I am beyond elated with my results and Dr. Kreithen's skilled hands. I can not recommend him enough..... AMAZING!!!!

My original breast augmentation was performed by Dr. Kreithen approximately 12 years ago. I wanted to increase my size and also get the newest implants. I am beyond happy with my end results. Dr. Kreithen's bedside manners and artistic ability never cease to amaze me! The staff is always available to answer my questions and address my needs. I love my plastic surgeon!!!!

I would highly recommend Dr. Kreithen to anyone who is considering cosmetic surgery he is very knowledgeable and takes the time to listen to your concerns I had a great experience!

Dr. Holcomb is AWESOME! I was very afraid to have anything done to my face, but Dr. Holcomb not only reassured me, but his results are also amazing!! I couldn't be more pleased, and I would never have anyone else touch my face.

Dr. Kreithen is the BEST! I had a Panniculectomy because I lost over 300lbs and am so impressed with the surgery. Dr. Kreithen always answers all of my questions and always makes sure I am taken care of. His nurses, Zariah and Morgan, are great! Kristine and Joy are always pleasant as well. I am so happy and gratified with choosing Dr. Kreithen and Holcomb-Kreithen Plastic Surgery. If you are looking to have any cosmetic surgery, I would definitely 110% would recommend Holcomb-Kreithen, especially Dr. Kreithen. A humongous thank you to Dr. Kreithen, Nurses, and Staff!

I can't say enough about my experience with Dr. Kreithen. Him himself all the office staff were absolutely amazing! Everyone was very thorough with explaining my procedures. Any questions I had somebody was able to answer at any point. Kristine and Sherry just to name a few. They walked me through every step beginning to end. Absolutely loved the staff!

I went in for a consultation to see what my options were for reducing the fat under my chin. I did not want anything injected, and I did not want to go under the knife. Kimberly was amazing. She listened to me and heard what I was saying. She introduced me to the CoolSculpting procedure, which is what I chose. Though it can take up to 3 or 4 months for the final results, I was amazed at what a difference it made within the first several weeks! She took several photos to track my progress. AMAZING results! I am so happy and highly recommend Kimberly and this procedure.

Kim Daily performed both Ultherapy and Halo laser treatment for me last month. At age 45, I was looking for something other than fillers to freshen up my look. Kim Daily took the time to explain both procedures to me in their entirety. She also described in detail what I could expect post-procedure. Her knowledge, patience, and willingness to answer questions really won me over, and I felt confident I was in good hands. Now, one month post-procedure, I am absolutely thrilled with my results and the care I received from Kim Daily and all the office staff as well. I feel at home at Holcomb-Kreithen MedSpa, and I am now planning my next treatments. Thank you so much for the wonderful care and for helping me feel my best!

After an abundant amount of research & asking around, a friend referred me to this facility to find out more about a procedure. The staff made me feel at home and made sure I was educated on every aspect of my upcoming surgery. Dr. Kreithen (along with all the nurses) fulfilled every special request and made me feel so comfortable the day of my surgery. I’m now more confident than I ever was, all thanks to Dr. Kreithen and his team! I trusted this facility so much that I came back and got another procedure done with Kimberly, where she walked me through every step and also fulfilled every request I had. This team/facility is absolutely amazing, and I have recommended this place to every friend and family member. Thank you, Dr. Kreithen & Kimberly, for making me feel confident in my skin. I am forever thankful!

I have only had positive experiences within this office, having utilized all the different services that they offer. Dr. Kreithen is a very skilled and caring surgeon. I first saw him in 2003, and was very pleased with my results. I've had facials/skincare appts, injections with Kim Daly, who is a true master at what she does, Ultherapy in 2015 with amazing results, so much so that I have another appt for it set up. The staff from the front reception area to the back are all friendly, courteous, and helpful. Care Credit is also available, so everyone can take advantage of having the best board-certified surgeons and staff available in the Sarasota area.

This was my second surgical procedure with this office & again I want to say thank you to the entire staff, especially the front desk, the nurses & of course Dr. Holcomb. Again, you have all been absolutely wonderful. The attention to every detail & follow-up care is amazing. Thank you also for the lovely flowers. Again, something rarely done by other offices. I have referred several friends & they have been very pleased as well. Should I require additional work in the future, I know where I will be going.

I had a lower face/neck lift with a full face CO2 laser, and I couldn’t be happier with the results!  I look like myself, only more refreshed and younger! The office staff was extremely friendly and professional. Dr. Holcomb has an artist’s eye and incredible skill! I am so, so happy with the outcome.

I recently underwent a facelift at Holcomb & Kreithen Plastic Surgery and MedSpa, and I couldn't be happier with the results and overall experience. The professionalism and delicate care demonstrated by every associate within the practice truly set them apart.

Dr. Holcomb exhibited an outstanding bedside manner, offering unparalleled care and respect throughout the entire process. The procedure not only made me look twenty years younger, but was also highly cost-efficient, making it an excellent choice for anyone considering this treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Holcomb and his team for their exceptional service and expertise.

I went in, feeling pretty discouraged. I can say that, from the beginning of my experience, through the surgery, and the end of my experience, which has now been almost 6 months ago. From the front of the house to Dr. Holcomb himself, I have never had a much easier surgery, with most of the professional people in all of my life. I had a chin and a lower face pick up. I have gained weight and lost weight for much of my life, so my face really showed it. I decided to go to Dr. Holcomb because I had only heard good things about him, and I have to say I could not be more proud of how I looked before and how I look now! Professionals from start to finish. You have a great team, Doc… Thank you for your service. The pics do not do it justice!! I just not photogenic!! But man, I look so pretty!!

Fortunately, I have had the pleasure of having procedures done by both Dr. Kreithen and Dr. Holcomb.  Their office staff and nurses are considerate and caring.  They show professionalism and do not make their patients feel uncomfortable in any way.  The thing that I love about both of these plastic surgeons is that they are committed to making you feel and look your best.  Highly professional, but genuinely nice, caring individuals. They will listen to your vision and try to help you achieve your desired results.  Speaking of results. I cannot say enough about how happy I am to have undergone the procedures that I have had to date because the results are exceptional! I have highly recommended them to friends, family, and even strangers in order for them to experience the same treatment and excellence if they were even considering a procedure in plastic surgery!!

I had a breast implant replacement done by Dr. Kreithen.  I did my research on all the Sarasota Plastic surgeons, and Dr. Holcomb and Dr. Kreithen, and their clinic was my choice.  The results were better than anticipated. The surgery center is first-class.  The preparation and follow-up from the nurses and the Doctors was amazing. I am 66 years old. I've had procedures in Chicago and didn't think anyone in Sarasota could meet the high standards of the Chicago Plastic surgeons. They absolutely did and are the best in the area.

I had procedures done by both Holcomb and Kreithen. I can't sing their praises enough. The office staff and nurses are incredibly kind and helpful. The doctors are amazing. I was the kind who swore I would never have any sort of cosmetic procedure done, but I couldn't be happier about what they've done for me. I would recommend anyone looking into cosmetic procedures to go to these guys.

The entire staff at this place went above and beyond for the entire process! I had abdominoplasty with hernia and abdominal wall repair, and I was a nervous wreck at first, but they all let me ask all my questions, and they never complained about my persistence. My surgery went smoothly, and recovery was tough, but the nurses and the doctors were always available to help and answer questions, no matter the time of day or night!

Dr. Kreithen is the BEST! I had a Panniculectomy because I lost over 300lbs and am so impressed with the surgery. Dr. Kreithen always answers all of my questions and always makes sure I am taken care of. His nurses, Zariah and Morgan, are great! Kristine and Joy are always pleasant as well.

I am so happy and gratified with choosing Dr. Kreithen and Holcomb-Kreithen Plastic Surgery. If you are looking to have any cosmetic surgery, I would definitely 110% would recommend Holcomb-Kreithen, especially Dr. Kreithen.

A humongous thank you to Dr. Kreithen, Nurses, and Staff!
