Excellent. Excellent doctor. Dr. Knish is my hero. He literally saved my life. I was so sick and so sick of being sick that I was very close to ending my life. Dr. Knish recognized my hopelessness and sprang into action. God blessed me with the doctor I needed.

Dr. Knish has been our family dr. since we moved her in 2006. I must say that I have saw a lot of doctors in my life but Dr. Knish is one of the very best (if not the best) I've ever been to. He has a great knowledge about most any condition one has and knows how to treat it. And what he cannot treat, he will schedule the appt. with the specialist you need to see. He has recommended several specialists for me. HIs office is always perfectly clean & his staff is very warm & friendly. Dr. Knish has a compassion for his patients that is pretty rare these days. He usually always asks me how my husband is doing (he had surgery last Aug 2013). He's prompt, never makes a patient wait more than 5 or 6 minutes. He never rushes a patient right on through (like some I've been to in the past). He takes time to talk with me, many times about things I did not go to see him about. In truth, I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Knish. He's just the best !! I recommend him to everyolne.

I have been ssing Dr Knish for several years and ALWAYS have a great visit. He could teach a course in bedside manner! Never feel rushed and he always asks lots of questions to get the conversation flowing. I am leaving Charlotte in 4 years. I want to take him back to Seattle with me!

I love Dr. Knish. He has the highest intellect of any in his field. His bedside manner is second to none. Could not say more about this fine Dr.

In completing the rating for Dr. Knish, he supercedes all of the above ratings. He is just the greatest. Have been going to him for over 3 years & never had a bad experience. He is a man of honor & character. Best bedside manner of any of the doctors I've seen in my life - and I've saw a lot of doctors. He'll treat you right. He truly seems to want the very best for his patients. Many doctors seems to have the attitude that "just get all the money I can get from her," but Dr. Knish is not like this. I give him a 5 star rating & recommend him to anyone.
