Provider Bio down arrow

Dr. Paulette Holley joined Marshfield Medical Center–Minocqua Urology in 2016. She provides general urology services and has a special interest in endoscopic procedures including minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones, bladder cancer and prostate enlargement.

Dr. Holley has previously worked within the Health System since 2008 as a contracted urology specialist in the Chippewa, Eau Claire, Marshfield, Minocqua, Stevens Point, Wausau and Weston centers.

"I chose to return to Minocqua to practice because of the community and the beauty of the Northwoods," she said.

She completed her general surgery and urology residencies at the University of Kentucky Medical Center in Lexington, Kentucky and an endourology fellowship at Loyala University Medical Center in Maywood, Illinois.

Regarding treatments, it is sometimes hard to agree to follow-up treatments. Dr. Holley seems to have done all possible to answer my questions and keep me informed.

Dr. Holley has a self assured but relaxed approach. Although all our discussion was around a follow-up from treatment received elsewhere years before, she treated the visit as though she had treated me from the start.
June 27, 2023
In previous visit the doctor was brusque & abrupt and not friendly. This visit she was a different person - congenial & had an attitude that expressed concern for my thoughts.
