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 Knicely is wonderful. I followed her to UVA from Johns Hopkins because she is warm, friendly, personable, very caring and also very knowledgeable and skilled. She listens attentively, is supportive and encouraging. She is an asset to any practice. I live in western Maryland, 3 hours from Fisherville and I wouldn't think of switching to another, nearer nephrologist.
