In patients' words
"In fact, the experience was so profound in my life that I just wrote a book about my experience... Mayo validated me and my condition."
— Mayo Clinic Connect community member"Dr. Knopman is that (unfortunately) rare medical professional who (1) listens to his patients... and (5) cares a lot about his patients' ongoing health issues."
— WebMD Care review"Not only was he clearly disinterested towards me as a person, I found him to be dangerously dismissive. He actually contradicted himself during my visit and appeared uninterested in taking a complete medical history."
— Vitals review of a specific neurologist"I received a denial letter after 15 days I applied to be seen at the Neurology Department... These people literally answered me that they were overloaded with patients and were not able to diagnose my case."
