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.

I appreciated his thorough attention to all my concerns, especially this being my first visit.

You can’t find anyone better
Everyone is kind and thoughtful. Dr Knowlton had every test done in order to make an informed assessment. He continually explained what he doing and what he was finding. It is rare today to leave an appointment feeling that you have been well taken care of.

Wait was horrible, 1 and 1/2 hour with an Alzheimer’s patient. As she became more and more agitated staff did nothing to speed up our wait. I had no idea the wait would be so long but seems to be the norm for this office. Dr. was patient and sweet with Alzheimer’s patient.

Dr Knowlton is knowledgeable about Ocular Rosacea
I'm new to the area and had to make more than a few calls to find an MD whose staff could verify they're familiar with OR. After my first appointment, I'm confident Dr Knowlton can help me. He's professional, listens thoughtfully, answers all questions without over-explaining, asks questions to thoroughly understand your history and current symptom, and he's very respectful. In addition, everyone in the office was professional and friendly - you can tell it's a positive work environment.

Scar Tissue Removal
Dr. Knowlton has a gentle, kind manner. He listens to the patient and then takes the time to answer their questions in full. I have never felt rushed or that I had to talk really fast in order to get his attention. He is very knowledgeable, and I'm completely comfortable with his diagnoses of my eye problems. I would highly recommend him.

Just had my daughters eye exam with Dr Knowlton and he was the best doctor I have seen for her so far. She has amblyopia and it has always caused me worry .... Dr Knowlton explained it so well and was very positive. I thought he was outstanding. Amazing ophthalmologist.
