Knibbe, W Patrick, Md - Intermountain Orthopaedics

I have had painful legs as well as other strange issues since I was three years old. I am now 43. Two years ago I finally received a diagnosis thanks to Dr. Knibbe. I went through about 30 doctors telling me ""it's all in your head"" until I was finally sent to Dr. Knibbe. In fact the referring doctor thought I was crazy too!! Knibbe believed me, we talked for 3 hours and he said he was sorry for all the doctors that didn't believe me. Had someone listened a long time ago I would have had a much better life and would not be nearly as sick as I am now. There is not a cure for all the things I have but there is symptom relief (to a point). Thank you Dr. Knibbe! You are my hero! Pro: He really listens! Con: you have to wait a long time in the waiting room but that's because he is giving the person in front of you the same wonderful care that you will get when it's your turn. IT""S WORTH THE WAIT!!!! Just bring a book or take a nap! more

I thought I would have to live with joint pain all my life. Dr. Knibbe was a God sent to me. I have a full life back, golfing, hiking, fishing all without pain. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and caring physician. Great staff as well... If you are looking for a Great Rheumatologist give him a shot, it could improve your life immensely... Pros: Knowledgeable more

After 10 years with APS, no one was able to help my husband figure out what all his weird symptoms were. Dr. Knibbe was able to explain everything to us on our first visit. He is like the doctors on mystery diagnosis. The one who is able to put all the pieces together and figure out what you have. Also he took the extra effort to make sure my husband got the correct medication, when all the standard treatments were failing. I credit him with saving my husband's life. Pros: very smart Cons: not everyone knows about him more

Dr. Knibbe is the perfect doctor--and I know because I went through about 50 others before I found him. He is brilliant, caring, dedicated, an excellent communicator; and he diagnosed my rare disorder when no one else could. He is everything you could possibly want in a doctor! more
