A small practice that knows your name
Dr. Renata Alvarez opened Hollin in 2012 with one idea: you should see the same few faces from your first prenatal visit to your fiftieth birthday. We are still independent, still small, and still answer the phone with a real person.

Patient reviews
In our patients' own words
4.8
from 260+ patient reviews
-
"I saw Dr. Brooks and Noor through my whole pregnancy. Every question got a real answer, even the ones I asked twice. When I called the on-call line at 2 a.m., someone who knew my chart called back in minutes."
Danielle R. · Prenatal care
-
"Dr. Marsh was the first doctor who didn't tell me this was just part of getting older. She laid out my options on one sheet of paper and let me take it home to think. I left feeling listened to."
Margaret T. · Menopause care
-
"I was nervous about an IUD. Kate talked me through pain relief before the visit and checked my insurance ahead of time, so there were no surprises. It took about fifteen minutes."
