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.

WONDERFUL DR
My primary thought he heard my carotid whooshing and sent me for an ultrasound. It came back concerning. I was so freaked out because I take good care of myself. Dr Knox explain the testing very well. He listened very well to me and answered my questions so I completely understood everything. He was with me for an hour. He showed me the images of the small plaques I have, which are not as concerning as the radiologist reading and reporting them. He is top notch. If you need a vascular Dr, look no further. Dr Knox is WONDERFUL! His staff is as well.

Dr. Knox is an excellent surgeon. He saved my husband’s life in an emergency situation. He is a polished, well-spoken surgeon, who makes time for all questions and explains everything very thoroughly. I admire his sincerity and bedside manner. He is an extremely gifted man and doctor. I would highly recommend him as an A1 vascular surgeon.
