Dr Hollowell performed a UroLift on me as I was suffering with an enlarged prostate. The entire procedure took less than an hour. I was put to sleep and I woke up with very minor discomfort. The next day I felt 95% better and the next day I was back doing yoga and carrying on a normal life. Dr. Hollowell is a miracle doctor as I no longer have any discomfort and I am back to my normal self and do not have to worry about taking anymore medication. I can’t sing enough praise for this wonderful doctor!

Cannot imagine who/why anyone(??nut case with some kind of personal vendetta??) would post those bad reviews. I found Dr. Hollowell to be exact opposite of all those things stated. He is VERY professional, skilled, warm & caring. I had been dealing with BPH for years and visited approximately a dozen different urologists. Finally drove 4 hours for a consult with Dr. Hollowell, returned again for the REZUM procedure and have recommended him to all my friends who are suffering with the enlarged prostate. Dr. Hollowell truly has changed the quality of my life for the better. THANK YOU

Dr. Hollowell exceeded my every expectation. You will not find a more informed thoughtful guardian of your care. He was thorough, Unrushed, and confident in his protocol. You will walk out of his office felling better one way or the other. Staff and support were indicative of his lead.

Our entire family was affected by my husbands enlarged prostrate issues, so even though I was not a patient of Dr Hollowell I was with my husband during every doctors visit and was very affected by the positive results of his treatment by Dr. Hollowell. I am writing because I am horrified by the negative reviews especially after going through the review process with my husband. ANYONE can write a bad review and as many as you want to after verifying (just saying) that you are a patient. One person with mental issues could bring down the ratings of a doctor. I would strongly suggest that you only take reviews from people who will give their name; then prospective patients could see that the same person with a personal vendetta is writing negative comments over and over.

Dr Hollowell is extremely patient and kind! I highly recommend him as a woman looking for someone to help with bladder issues. He truly listens and tries to get to the root of the issue. I am so lucky to have found him. I was severely depressed because of the bladder issues I was having. He has helped me tremendously and I felt like I got my life back! I can’t recommend him enough! He’s a rare gem.

His professionalism was of the utmost. He explained what was going on with my prolapsed bladder & uretha that was just operated on about 2 yrs ago.

Dr. Hollowell is a skilled surgeon, is very caring and personable. He takes the time to explain procedures and answer questions. I can go on and on about how wonderful he is. He is truly a gem physician, which can be very difficult to find these days.

I was thoroughly pleased with the outcome of my surgery. Dr. Hollowell and his staff were tops in my opinion and I would recommend them to anyone.

Thank you, Dr. Hollowell!!! After having bladder lift surgery and a revision surgery by another surgeon, who was unable to provide post-operative care, Dr. Hollowell took me on as his patient and helped pick up the pieces and put me on a path to recovery. He explained what was happening and gave me the confidence that I would eventually be able to urinate again. His kind nature and patience is wonderful. His staff is terrific too! With 3 offices in Broward county they were able to see me whenever I needed. I wish I had met Dr. Hollowell sooner- I would have had him from the start.

This Physician does not take the time to diagnose you thoroughly. During the patient history and initial encounter i felt like he wasnt not even listening to me. The treatment that he performed with injections further damaged me to a point where i have now been on my third doctor and they all have told me that the procedure that Dr. Hollowell decided on was the worst decision that could have been made. I may never make a full recovery but my goal is now to warn all future patients to look elsewhere.

I dont know why anyone would put up with this kind of third-world care. Just dont go here. Horrible! Wishing If I could give 0 stars .Dr Christopher Hollowell the most unprofessional disrespectful doctor I have ever met. First you will wait for hours to see him. Then he will try to rush you into a procedure. This Dr is not ethical, misleading, doesnt go by the book. And will try experimental procedures that you dont see in any prestigious urological hospital.
