A great disappointment for first time new patient experience. My husband and I drove 1:30 hours to be told the Dr was not available! The office can set up another appointment or we can see the PA. We have nothing against the PA but for our first initial consultation as new patients, see the dr would be important! A phone call informing us of the situation would be appreciated. 2 days b4 the app we asked to change the app . It was not possible unless we can wait for another month. It is so sad health care today is all about money not patients. Dr Knight, please retrain your front office staff to treat us with better courtesy. Do you read the reviews about your terrible front office or do you even care!

My sister had 31 precancerous lesions removed by Dr Knight. He is very knowledgeable and professional. I went to him as a precaution for skin cancer. Dr. Knight checked me out head to toe and thankfully I had no cancerous or precancerous lesions. I did have a cherry angioma removed from my forearm that had been bothering me for years, plus a mole on my neck that became irritated at times. Dr removed them so quick and painlessly, I didn't even realize when he was finished. Most definitely recommend to one and all. Wonderful dermatologist.

Dr. Knight is exceptional. He takes a real interest in his patients and displayed a level of compassion towards my grandmother and her individual situation that I've never seen before.
