I was very impressed with Dr McKnight. He explained everything and answered all questions in a manner I could understand
11/28/20
Chief issue here is that no one told me to bring my information. They did have pictures faxed to them but they wanted the color pictures. It would have taken about 5 minutes to email me or phone and leave a message to let me know to bring the photos. That as a huge oversight.
