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.

Professional and Helpful
Dr. McKnight saw me on time and explained my treatment plan clearly. Often I feel doctors look at patients as just a number or try to rush through the appointment, but Dr. McKnight really seemed to care. I left Dr. McKnight's office with optimism that my back issues will be a thing of the past.

I visited Dr. McKnight 3 days ago with 2 discs in my neck herniated. He promised to get me scheduled with a MRI, and a pain management appt right away. After 3 days, and me calling their office several times begging for the pain management appt, I still have no appt. I am dying in pain and no one from their office will help me get an appt. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Amazing surgeon
Dr. McKnight did my mom’s back surgery and now she’s doing great! Before she wasn’t able to hardly get out of her chair because of the pain and now she’s pain free. She’s back to gardening and doing everything else she wants to do. Dr. McKnight is a wonderful and compassionate doctor.
