I worked with Dr. Holtmann when she was a resident physician at UMC. She was the nicest resident I had the pleasure of knowing. I have always admired her.

It's a sad day when I heard that Dr Holtmann had passed. She was the most kind and thoughtful person I know and took the best of care of those that were under her care. I missed her after she retired and will continue to miss her after her passing. RIP
