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 have a very complex and unique set of issues.
Dr. Kniss was very patient with the number of my issues. He didn’t belittle me or my issues in any way. I have only seen him once, so far, but I intend to continue as long as he continues to give good advice and care.

Would leave 0 stars if possible
I am writing this review on behalf of a disabled relative who saw Dr. Kniss. His disrespect, disregard, and cruelty he showed my family member was galling. Do not see this doctor. Make the drive to another city to find a neurologist who is actually competent and shows basic civility. For a DOCTOR to treat a physically and mentally challenged patient in such a terribly way is beyond the pale and he should be absolutely ashamed of himself.

Awful. Disrespectful. Arrogant. Scoffed when I spoke. Barely did any exam. Treated me like a child. Avoid.

Kniss is a quack in my opinion. He increased my seizure medication dosage to 4 times the strength I was on overnight. This put me at toxic levels and I was almost hospitalized! I would not recommend this man to anyone, his license should be removed.

Rushed me out of the visit, clearly didn't prep for it, as I had to verbally tell him multiple things I had already written on my ROS form, and when he finally looked at it he said "oh, ya, you did write that down." Then told me my symptoms are "probably just anxiety". Sent orders for blood work and MRI's. I was able to see the results of all tests after they were preformed, reviewed them with another physician, and both blood work AND MRI's came back abnormal. When I received the call back from his office, I was told "all of your tests are normal, Dr. Kniss suggests going back to you PCP." When I mentioned the abnormalities I knew about, the response was "he doesn't think those are relevant." So after spending HUNDREDS of dollars, still in pain and having neurological symptoms, I received a rushed consultation that he was not prepared for, abnormal lab results and abnormal MRI's will still no help for any of the symptoms I am suffering from. I could not feel less "unwanted".

Dr. Kniss diagnosed me after a renowned MS doctor made a mistake. He discontinued my Tysabri. As a consequence, I had a severe relapse. Dr. Kniss then rediagnosed me with MS. He started me on medication again. For the time being, I am doing fine. He does regular MRI's and blood work. He also did a test for possible seizures. His nurse is wonderful and timely. I am satisfied.

He is extremely rude and arrogant. He acted like my appointment was a complete waste of his time. I have never been treated so poorly by a physician.

Dr. Kniss was very helpful with my symptoms. He was thoughtful and listened and was open to my input. I will continue to see him and would recommend him to others.

Doesn't listen and is super arrogant. Doesn't maintain eye contact, most unprofessional Dr I've ever had. It seemed like his time was being wasted even though I have great insurance so he's well compensated for his time. The appt was a waste of my time.
