Sierra Nevada Surgical Associates: Mark DeMar MD FACS & Kraig Knoll MD FACS

Dr. Knoll Thank You for your excellent care and surgery of my hernia. I wasn't happy about having to have surgery and mesh but there was No Getting Out of It - I had ignored it too long. I'm just glad I ended up with such a kind and thorough surgeon.

I had to have emergency surgery this month. Dr Demar fit me into his schedule via Carson Tahoe ER very accordingly. I didn’t have to wait at the hospital all day for surgery, and the pre operative conversation with Dr. Demar was very pleasant. He explained the surgery process and reassured me that I would be ok. I also got to speak in depth with the anesthesiologist- who was INCREDIBLE, and my surgical nurse who was a complete delight!! They all led me into surgery feeling like I was in the best capable hands. After surgery I was obviously terrified of the financial burden this would then become. The surgery turned out to be very reasonable and my financial hardship was even taken into consideration at billing. All in all my emergency surgery couldn’t have turned out better and I’d highly

Terrible. Didn’t even read my imaging. Said I didn’t have a hernia and then I had to have emergency hernia surgery the following day.
