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.

Great...thorough eye exam and great explanations. Very reassuring to my spouse who was in a state of anxiety because of her eye issues. I have been going to Dr Knight for a number of years. His office staff is very professional and caring. During the pandemic they have demonstrated extreme care being very fastidious about covid protocols.

This doctor gave me the wrong prescription which caused me to purchase the wrong glasses. He refused to own up to his error even though he had to give me a new prescription in just a few weeks. He refused to consider the cost of my wrong glasses instead gave excuses as to why my eyes changed drastically. SHAME ON YOU DOCTOR KNIGHT.

I had my first visit with Dr. Knight, and I have found an amazing ophthalmologist. An optometrist told me I had an issue, and Dr. Knight performed the most thorough eye examination I have ever had in my life. There are no issues, and Dr. Knight put me at ease. His staff is very friendly, and Dr. Knight is exceedingly nice. I have a found a new doctor!

I thought I had a detached retina, which is a medical emergency. Although I was not a past patient, Dr. Knight's office arranged for an immediate examination. Dr. Knight was quite thorough, taking a lot of time to examine my eye, and to explain the condition (vitreous detachment) to me in a manner that respected my need for detailed information. I am most impressed with his professionalism, and do not hesitate to recommend him to others.

I had an eye emergency while traveling to Altanta. Dr. Knight returned my emergency message at 4 AM, waking up in the middle of the night to arrange prescription eyedrops and reassure me until my visit first thing in the morning. On arrival, his staff was waiting and ready to ease my discomfort. Dr. Knight was visibly interested in my health and took the time to conduct a comprehensive exam. I'm indebted to his kindness and sincere investment in my well-being during a scary time far from home.
