Patient Reviews
Apr 22, 2022
I’m new to this office; however, I have felt very welcomed and well taken care of since my visits began. The front office is delightful and very professional! Jeanna in particular. She is kind and has a lot of patience. Dr. Thompson is thorough, knowledgeable, and extremely informative. He takes the time to explain things, and he truly hears and sees his patients. As a woman of color, this is imperative. Especially in the medical field where I have experienced the opposite. I’m very thankful for this referral.
