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.

Excellent Surgeon and VERY thorough.
Telehealth
Dr. Thayer saved my life in Dec 2024. I'd had side pain, exhaustion, confusion & abnormal labs since 2014. Saw SEVERAL doctors, had scans, labs, tests, colonoscopies, endoscopies, ER visits with no diagnosis other than anemia which I'd had for decades. The pain got worse, labs became increasingly abnormal, had several transfusions and iron infusions but nothing was found causing worsening side pain. I was hospitalized in late Nov 2024 for 4 days & discharged. I became incoherent & collapsed Dec 9, 2024, was taken to ER & admitted. Several scans, labs & tests were completed & still no answers. Dr. Thayer was brought in & did exploratory surgery. She found a portion of my colon was dead or dying and removed that portion. Sepsis set in, my kidneys failed & I went into A-Fib. I had 2 or 3 surgeries. Cancer was discussed but eliminated a few days later. She never gave up on me. I was released to rehab Dec 30 and home Jan 9. I lived because of Dr. Thayer. She is AMAZING.
