I recently had a "mommy makeover" (abdominoplasty, breast augmentation and breast lift) with Dr. Robert Knowling. He and his staff provided exceptional care and compassion and I could not be happier with my results. I would recommend him to anyone considering cosmetic surgery. I chose Dr. Knowling after several other consultations with other plastic surgeons in the area. He thoroughly explained all procedures to me and I never felt rushed. His staff was warm and answered all my questions.

I have gone to Dr. Knowling for procedures since 2001. I have had a tummy tuck and liposuction on thighs, breast reduction twice (they grew back over about 12 years) and eyelid surgery. I had a great experience every time. The office staff which has changed over time have always been kind and helpful as has Dr. Knowling.

I went searching for a plastic surgeon who would do a breast reduction for me. I had planned on my insurance paying for it since I was very much in need of it. After going in for a consultation and being treated very well, we submitted my insurance information. My insurance declined the procedure because of my height and BMI, they would have to take too much off and leave me with nothing. I decided to finance it and go through with the procedure. I had the procedure done on July 6th. I was treated with kindness and respect the entire time. Dr. Knowling seems like a genuinely nice person and is a very kind doctor with great bedside manner. The procedure took 3 hours and I was left with already great results! I am healing and I can already tell how much better I look and feel! His entire staff are extremely sweet including, Janet, Hailee, and Tammy! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Knowling and his incredible staff!

Had a procedure done here a few weeks ago and was very satisfied with my experience from the start with my consultation. They were very professional and made me feel comfortable and heard. I feel as though my money was well spent and so far I’m happy with the results (will update this if that changes). Dr. Knowling has stupendous bedside manner and is one of the greatest doctors I have come into contact with!! He makes you feel heard, valued, and gives you a realistic course of action to get to where you want to be. My husband and I very much appreciated his and the staff’s involvement in the couple days following my surgery as well, checking to make sure we made it home alright and that I was healing okay. Outstanding patient care does not go unnoticed! I was initially going to give it 5stars but if I’m being honest, each time I’ve gone in for follow-ups, it’s not been as great. Nothing significant, it’s just not the AMAZING service it had been and I don’t want to give a perfect score if I feel like there’s room for improvement and I do - Just because I’ve given you my business and money already doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still make me feel important (directed at the staff, not Dr). May have to do with all the COVID messing with their normalcy, but nonetheless, it is a great place to go and I would definitely recommend Dr. Knowling!

Dr. Knowling is perhaps the most impressive physician I've ever encountered. My son was in an accident that required substantial reconstructive surgery to his forehead. Dr. Knowling always gave us clear and detailed information about what needed to be done and the prognosis. He remembered every detail of conversations we had with him from that night in the ER. His staff is also an outstanding group. My son's surgery was successful and I thank Dr. Knowling for both this expertise and his always compassionate, concerned attitude.
