I first saw Dr. Knights in 2023. I was referred to him because I was having Essential Tremors. Dr. Knights discussed all the tests needed before I qualified for my procedure. I spoke with the Neurosurgeon at which time the surgery date was set up.  After the surgeon, I went back to Dr. Knights for the treatments regarding the surgery.

Video (telehealth) visit.  First time as a new patient doing a telehealth.  He was very nice, listened to my concerns ans also listened to the answers I gave to his questions.  At the end of the visit, he made sure I understood his findings and suspicions and the tests needed to come up with a definite diagnosis.
