Edward W. Holt, M.D.

As a physician, Dr. Edward Holt sees his role as a liaison between patients and medical science. He is confident in his understanding of liver disease and his ability to connect patients with the most up-to-date treatments. Dr. Holt also recognizes that medicine is not one-size-fits-all. Not every patient fits the textbook, and not every treatment works equally well for everyone. Even patients with the same condition may have different goals or preferences. These nuances make medicine not just a science, but an art. He brings his expertise to each patient encounter, but believes the best outcomes are those that patients understand and choose—ones that make sense both biologically and psychologically. Patient understanding and autonomy are central to his practice. He believes that teaching both the science and the art of medicine is essential to preparing the next generation of physicians.

Outside of Medicine, Dr. Edward Holt is the father of three boys and an avid fan—formerly a youth coach—of their basketball and track teams. He is a die-hard local sports fan, a grateful husband, an occasional runner, and a lover of audiobooks.
