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.

Communication issue
Dr. Thompson's failure to respond to a medical message i sent him on the Sinai patient portal resulted in a busted procedure and a $3,573.93 charge for zero benefit.

I was on the fence about doing this surgery but after meeting with Dr. Thompson and listening to him explain both pros and cons in a detailed manner, I knew it was the right decision. He's been attentive, concise and caring every step of the way.

Simply the BEST!
I cannot say enough about Dr Thompson and his team. I have done many research and none compared to my contact with this practice. They are friendly and professional. Dr Thompson has excellent bedside manners and never rushes you in your appointments. He is open to answer all your questions and respond to your concerns in a honest, patient and understanding way. Dr. Thompson is just simply an amazing professional and his team seems to be following his lead. I feel very blessed to have them on my quest to better health. So far everything is going better than expected for me. If you are considering, be confident in your decision to stop right here, you will not regret it!

The experience went very well and smooth. I did not have any issues with this procedure. This procedure was a lot better then the gastric sleeve I had gotten done back in 2019. Overall i am very proud of this new journey.
