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.

Been going to Dr Knapik for 20 years excellent care.

If The Doctor Is Anything Like His Staff - Avoid!
Requires you to sign a paper agreeing to Managed Health Care. When asked why, 'everyone has to sign it'. Not this guy. Enjoy your three star rating Sir. Appears hard earned.

Excess Iron Liver
Dr. Knspik saved my life from excess Iron, Ferrritin, and TCP. He referred a Hematologist. I found Dr. Virk Nanda a true life saver!

In this clinic, you have choices. I.) You can be treated like a leper in case you are very ill, OR 2.) You can be treated like a hypochondriac if you don’t know what’s wrong. I tried it for quite a while. I felt rushed and unimportant. The staff, including two doctors are arrogant, dismissive, and insensitive. We don’t have a lot of choices on this mountain and they know it. Also, make sure you only have ONE problem. Otherwise you have to make another appointment. Katsching, Katsching.

Dr. Knapik is an old fashioned doctor, who has outstanding bedside manners ! I have not met with a California Doctor who takes time to listen to patients in years. It is obviously that Dr. Knapik cares. Dr. Knapik is impressively up to date on all the latest and greatest in Medical Science! I thought the days of quality time with your doctor were over for Years! I highly recommend Dr. Knapik to all people in Southern California.
