    Dr.Knight knows i can get anxious and has been so amazing at educating me and keeping me at ease literally since the day my son was born. She has even called after hours with results and instructions herself. I appreciate her so much

    I switched my primary to Dr Knight initially because I didn’t feel like my daughter wasn’t being cared for properly and my questions and thoughts weren’t being heard. Dr Knight always answers my questions and makes sure I feel comfortable about every decision I make in regards to my children. You can also see she really cares about my kids well being and doesn’t come across as judgy, but helpful and kind. I recently had [ ] with my son and she actually saw I was having a difficult time calming him because it was feeding time and we needed to wait a little until after an [ ]. She took care of him and held him for me, he could [ ] so I don’t think he would have become calm without her taking him from me and helping. She is always patient with me and doesn’t rush me in and out of my appointment which is important for me. She is a true gem and a huge asset to the team at that location. I couldn’t see myself bringing my kids to another provider. She is the best!
