I have been in Dr. Holgersons practice since I was in my 20s, now as an MDVIP member I am in my 70s. Consistent care and follow up has been the hallmark of his care. He also gets a five star rating for a compassionate and empathetic interaction with patients.
Dr. William Holgerson is a true wonder. He has the heart of an old-time general practitioner while using and promoting current technology. He endears his patients (he used to welcome my mother with a touch on the arm ). He quickly adapted to using the electronic medical record. His knowledge base is remarkable.

Twenty years ago Dr. Holgerson saved my life. I was having chest pain (not thinking it could be a heart issue) and he asked me several questions and based on my responses he had me go to Newton Wellesley Hospital where I was diagnosed with a 90 blocked LAD. Subsequent installation of a stent, regular check ups, and diet changed my history and extended my life, with great quality.
Thanks for all you have done for me for a long time Bill.
You run a great practice.

Dr. Holgerson has been my doctor for the past 5 years. He has a kind and friendly approach but talks directly about care. He is extremely knowledgeable and has an excellent manner of communicating on how to get and stay healthy. I feel fortunate to have him as my Doctor.
Bill is the best! Thorough, explains all in sufficient detail and treats me like a thinking human being. Has adapted quickly to new technologies and is on top of new research. And, he is always on time.
I've been a patient for 30 years and I've always received prompt medical attention and intelligent, practical advice. Thank you for keeping me (any wife Julie, your patient for 25 years) healthy!
Your caring optimism is the best medicine.

Through the many years that I have been his patient he has demonstrated time and again that he pays close attention to any complaints that I discuss with him and has… See more
When I contacted Dr. Holgerson on a Sunday to tell him I had just fallen on a slippery lava rock in Hawaii and broken my wrist, he immediately got to work coordinating my care. He stayed in touch while I navigated the medical system in Kauai, consulting immediately with a top hand surgeon, and arranged for surgery back in Boston once we returned home.
Given it was a bad break requiring… See more
