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.

Goes above and beyond
There are no words to describe how wonderful and caring Dr. Thomson is. He is simply the best.

this office is not patient oriented. i was supposed to get a coly done. when facility called to confirm i asked for pricing for anesthesiologist and pathologist. couldn't give me that info nor contact for those docs. dr thompsons office couldnt give me the same info. Really. His office is managing this process and cant give me contact info for the docs offices doing the work on me so i can check pricing. this is ridiculous. our healthcare system is not patient focused. when i asked to have dr. thompson call me they said he was busy. Really, i don't get to talk to a doctor doing a procedure on me? so nobody in the foodchain can give me the names and contact info of the docs working on me so i can check prices? how does this make sense.

I have had several Colonoscopies including the last 3-4 with Dr. Thomson....I seem to have a genetic issue but will be fine as long as I have the procedure every 2-3 years. I know that some doctors/clinics do not spend enough time on each patient...but I have always felt that Dr. Thomson takes as much time as needed to verify any issues are removed during the procedure. In fact, I am so confident in Dr. Thomson that although I have moved 1 1/2 hours away, my husband & I both used him the same

He would not allow the alternative colon cleanse recommended by my pharmacist covered by my insurance. He must have a deal with moviprep and make $$$ on the side. Otherwise
