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.

Very thoughtful, engaging, overall great visit
Dr. Thompson takes the time to hear your issues and talk through them. He makes sure all of your questions are answered and never makes you feel rushed. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Thompson always takes the time to explain anything to me that I don’t understand. His gentle nature puts me at ease. He has helped me more than anyone else dealing with my diabetes. He has been an answer to prayer. I wish all of my doctors were more like him.
