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.

He is very caring and concerned with your Medical Problems. He makes you feel very comfortable and listens to all your concerns. We appreciate him very much.

Dr. T begins by checking my BP and then listens to my heart and lungs. He asks if I have had any symptoms since I was last seen. Next he will ask if I have any new questions and/or I can bring up anything on my mind. He knows about my family and always asks about them. I know a little about this family and so we talk about our families. Overall, he is an excellent physician with a wonderful personality.

Best doc I've ever had. I've been seeing him for some years since he replaced my former doc in the same practice. I have great confidence in his recommendations. He listens well and we have 2-way conversations about my health issues. Highly recommended.

Dr. Thompson treats both my mom and dad. Every time I have taken them in for office visits, he respectfully listens to them and responds appropriately to their concerns. When my parents have been hospitalized, he’s always made them feel he’s participating and overseeing their care. He’s just a superb doctor and caring human being. All staff are also efficient and caring.

Dr. Thompson is very thorough with answering all and any questions you may have during your appointment, and is extremely easy going and a pleasure to talk to. He makes complicated medical terms understandable to those without a medical background. He took the time to ensure that I felt comfortable and confident about my diagnoses before I left my visit. Would recommend to all my friends!
