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. Knighton has been my primary CP for the last 8 years and I've never had a better doctor. Him and his staff are incredibly nice and empathetic. Dr. Knighton does an excellent job of evaluating the patient and not relying on symptom checks. He's also very interactive, using and showing medical textbooks with pictures of the anatomical cause for your visit...overall great physician and excellent practice.

Dr. Knighton really knows what he's doing. Every time I go to him I get exactly what I need. When I needed help with my depression he not only got me on the right prescription but also helped me mentally through the process. I always trust his decisions.
