Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Thompson and his staff are 1st rate! I am so glad that I had him as my cancer surgeon. He explained each thing he was going to do before he did it. This went a long way to making me feel more at ease in a not so comfortable situation. I would recommend Dr. Thompson to anyone who has breast cancer. He’s the best.

I highly recommend Dr. Thompson and Baylor. The care is second to none and the compassion shown to patients makes such a difference. He and his team communicate seamlessly with all my doctors at Baylor which insures I get the best care available. They literally saved my life. I will go nowhere else in Houston.

During our first visit, he eased my worries and fears that come with this diagnosis. He answered all the questions my husband and I had without talking down to us. Treated us with kindness and respect.
