Patient Reviews
Jan 30, 2024
I've had Diverticulitis for a while and last year when it started acting up and getting worse, my gastroenterologist suggested I have surgery to remove that part of my colon. They referred me to Dr. McKnight and I could not be happier with my experience. In our initial visit he was very detailed and answered all of my questions. The surgery went very well. I was in the hospital for 2 days and recovery went better than I thought after following Dr. McKnight's instructions. The 2 post op appointments I had with him were great too, he took the time to examine my incisions, ask me questions to see how I was doing, and was very patient and kind when I asked all of my questions. I would highly recommend him.
