Patient Reviews
Sep 05, 2024
Dr. Young is one of the best doctors in Knoxville and I highly recommend him. I had a colonoscopy and he went beyond what most doctors do - not just removing polyps but did other things to help with my problem. He is very thorough and a very personable doctor. His PA is great and all the nurses and others at the Middlebrook Pike Surgery were fantastic. I can honestly say my experience was beyond anything I have had in the past and I am 82 years old and have had a lot of colonoscopies.
