Patient Reviews
Mar 07, 2024
This brilliant man saved my life in 1986. I had pulmonary embolisms 12 days after a hysterectomy. At the time there wasn’t a surgical procedure to save me. One hospital gave me blood thinners. Didn’t work. Then I was helicoptered to where Dr Thorne was. There was a less than 1% chance I would live but because I was 35 and had 4 young children Dr Thorne worked through the night opening me up 3 times, to hand massage the clots out of my lungs. I’m 72 now and forever grateful for a daring, caring wonderful man who saved my life.
