Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Knight is one of the best surgeons I’ve ever met. I was 16 years old when he operated on me due to an appendicitis. Despite some health complications I had, He took great Care of me, explained everything in detail, and was very professional. I recommend him 100%. I will forever be grateful for him.

I personally know Dr. Knight, and he goes over and above to help children, even when they aren't directly his patients. He was able to get an appointment for my grandson to get evaluated at the neurology department when he was in dire need for testing. He then personally saw that he was doing fine after being taken care of. Children really like him. He's funny and lets them be themselves and tries to help them forget their anxiety.

Excellent! Dr. Knight will take, or make, the time to answer all your questions, thoroughly and sincerely (this is very important to me, so many doctors nowadays just want to get on to the next patient). Dr. Knight has a very no-nonsense approach, is infinitely knowledgeable and professional. It really gives me peace of mind to have him as our pediatric surgeon. High recommended!

I have been seeing Dr. Knight for years. He is an honest and forthright doctor and I highly recommend him. He is the kind of surgeon who does not take you to the operating room if it is not necessary. Thank you, Dr. Knight!
