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.

I find Dr. Laura is very helpful, personable, down to earth and professional. Her staff has always been very responsive and helpful too.

I cannot sincerely recommend this office to anyone not because Dr Thompson isn’t a kind caring physician but my last three annual visit I have waited to be seen with an appointment in the waiting room up to a hour. I understand you see women that are pregnant but I am just as important. However when you ask me to come to my appointment 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork and then another hour to be seen with an appointment doesn’t make me as a patient feel confident in your ability to manage your time let alone my health. Therefore I am no longer going to be a patient here. My time is as valuable as yours.

Dr Thompson has been absolutely amazing with me and my baby (second pregnancy). I wish I could have had her for my first. She listens and cares so much about every concern and sits to explain what’s going on, and never makes me feel like I’m over reacting. I’m so thankful to have found her, and will always recommend any pregnant momma to see her. Her MA, Amy, is just as amazing! They are a perfect team and I could never thank them enough for their care and loving nature towards my baby and myself.

Dr Thompson is genuine and caring. She listens and remembers year from year your health history, care and even family. She’s very good at OB and Gyn. You can’t go wrong having Dr Thompson as your women’s health Dr. Thank you Dr Thompson for all the years of great care!

I love Dr. Thompson. She delivered our daughter (a high-risk pregnancy) and has cared for me since with the utmost professionalism, kindness and expertise.

My daughter used to go see Dr Thompson and my daughter liked her and so did I when I would go there with my daughter. Now that Dr. Thompson has moved to s different office. She is not nice no patience. She is always in a hurry. Dr. Thompson is very short in her explanation of things. I would not recommend her to my worst enemy.

Unfortunately I can only give one start. Dr. Laura was great. Her oiffice scheduler is the one that killed my whole experience. Very unprofessional and rude. I had my first appointment, at that time they asked if I wanted to do the end of the first trimester ultra sound reading for autism. I said yes, I literally called 1-2 Times a week for a month. She could not fit me in, I then asked please ask Dr. Laura for a referral out to get this done, I asked twice never received anything back.

Not a good fit for a mature patient. Exam was incomplete, no pelvic exam. Follow through on communication of test results was terrible.
