Patient Reviews
Aug 27, 2022
A very horrible experience with Dr Knepp’s office personnel. I suffer with chronic diverticulitis, reflux, and irritable bowel syndrome. I have had several attacks of diverticulitis, (deadly possibility of intestinal rupture), to which I was unable to get the nurse or the office personal to have Dr Knepp call in to the pharmacy for antibiotics to treat my Diverticulitis. I have had this conversation a couple times with Mrs. Anderson the PA and Dr Knepp and nothing changed. Still unable to get appointment or prescription for emergency. I had to be hospitalized with a sever case of Intestinal sepsis. The surgeons are telling me I must have part of my colon removed and possibly my bowels. All could have been avoided had someone called in some antibiotics to the pharmacy. A very uncaring unconcerning staff.
