Patient Reviews
Jan 30, 2016
Gateway Medical was recommended to my by a long-time RN in the Chester County Hospital Emergency Department. Dr. Thornton is the first physician I've seen in a long time who I truly like and trust. She spends the appropriate time with me, and asks probing questions. I am glad to have found her.
