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.

Despite being the renowned psychiatrist in the realm of eating disorders, she was utterly unprofessional and unethical. She enabled interaction with my toxic sister, Naomi who herself had an eating disorder and abused me for years. When my older sister came to the hospital to take me out on an outing after I left her a message telling her not to come, I asked her to leave, but she did not acquiesce to my request and stayed and had a session with McKnight, complaining what a “difficult child” I was, which was breach of doctor-relationship trust on McKnight’s end. McKnight also misdiagnosed me as an individual that should be institutionalized for life, which had been outdated model of care for people with disabilities since the 70s as activists pushed for social inclusion. For all who encounter Lenore McKnight, RUN! If you or a family member has an ED, do not choose McKnight as your provider.
