Patient Reviews
Oct 24, 2018
Dr.Thornton took extra time speaking with our family and educating us on our mothers condition after she had a stroke. When she was in the hospital he followed up on her daily and kept us updated. He always returned are calls. Most importantly he could tell me what was going on before the MRI results came back, very intelligent man.
