Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Patients appreciate
Dr. Brian Knieriem receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise his professionalism, thoroughness, and exceptional communication skills. Patients repeatedly highlight his ability to explain complex medical information in clear, understandable terms and his willingness to take time answering questions and addressing concerns. His bedside manner is frequently described as kind, caring, compassionate, and friendly, with many patients noting he makes them feel comfortable and at ease during appointments. Patients appreciate his attentiveness, his thorough examinations, and his genuine concern for their well-being. Multiple long-term patients expressed happiness about his return from retirement, indicating strong patient loyalty and satisfaction with his care.
Patients also share
The primary area for improvement mentioned in reviews relates to wait times, with a few patients noting delays of 35 minutes or more before being seen by Dr. Knieriem after the initial nurse interview. One patient mentioned experiencing ongoing symptoms after a scratched cornea examination and felt those symptoms weren't fully addressed, though the doctor's manner was praised. A couple of reviews noted that while the provider was running behind schedule, he remained professional and kind despite the delays. These concerns represent a small minority of the feedback received.
