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.

I had surgery for a herniated disk about 5 years ago. I had gone through physical therapy and had received shots in my back. I could barely walk from my bed to the bathroom for about two months. My pain was gone immediately after my surgery. I feel like he gave me my life back.

I had a horse back riding accident that left me with 5 broken vertebrae and two herniated discs .I went to get a second opinion regarding a second surgery . I feel so lucky that I was able to meet with such an eminent doctor as Dr.Knight . He went through every X-ray, MRI with me and explained every option in depth . I thanked him profusely for all of the time he lavished on me -

I went to Dr. Knight for help with severe lower back pain and sciatica in my L5-S1 disk. I had already been through physical therapy and chiropractic care and nothing seemed to help. Surgery seemed to be my only option left. He recommended Aquatic aerobics and mental health. I instead went to see Dr. Walter Hall at Upstate Hospital in Syracuse who immediately suggested a diskectomy. I just got out of surgery yesterday and have NO pain at all... Dr. Knight was way off...

Dr. Knight treated my back problem when no one else thought it was possible. He was remarkable, the surgery was a total success, and he was kind and cared about ME!! He is one in a million.

I highly recommend Dr. Knight. I was very impressed with how much time he took to reassure me of my concerns. He didn't try to rush out the door or make me feel as if my concerns were nothing. He even took the time to show me the images they had just taken and explained what he saw. He was very, very kind and very thorough. This is the first surgeon I've seen that is not only knowledgeable, but caring, friendly, and very polite.
