Patient Reviews
Dr. Knoll is very personable and is an expert in his field. After having a negative experience with a local urology group, I started driving from north Georgia to Nashville. Dr. Knoll makes the drive more than worthwhile. I recommend him and his staff 100%.
We can’t say enough good things about Dr. Knoll. He was my husbands urologist for a few years and we always liked him. He is kind, understanding, has a good sense of humor & a great bedside manner.
Dr Knoll is great. Very smart, very good at explaining conditions and treatments. My only doctor that I trust completely.
