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 do not like to leave a negative review for anyone, but I must agree with some of the other reviewers. I cannot recommend this doctor. She was rushed. She became rude and arrogant when I asked questions about treatment. I will seek care elsewhere as I no longer have confidence in her care.

My visit seemed rushed for a new patient. I got the impression she just wanted to get in and out. She didn’t seem caring. She wanted a separate appointment for each skin issue. I left the office feeling sad and disappointed.

I never leave reviews. Good or bad. But I left this office and immediately cried and I wanted people to know to not waste their time and energy coming to this doctor’s office. When I called to make an appointment, the receptionist sounded like she could fall asleep and didn’t care about me or her job. I was hoping that wouldn’t be reflective of the office she represents. However, everyone at the office felt cold and inconsiderate. Especially Dr. Thompson. It felt like she didn’t want to hear wha

I have had a great experience with Dr. Thompson. She has helped me during a period of suffering from very painful cysts. I was able to get scheduled to see her quickly and she was able to treat them the same day; which provided a great relief. She was very thorough with her explanation of the issue as well as my different options of handling the situation. If you are looking for a thorough doctor who knows their stuff I highly recommend Dr. Michele Thompson.

Only one star because zero stars was not an option! Dr. Thompson is the most arrogant and condescending medical professional I have ever come across. First, always running behind schedule. I once made a comment about this lack of timeliness to the receptionist after sitting in the waiting room for 20+ minutes without anyone saying anything to me. Later I was told by Dr. Thompson that I had “given attitude” to her staff and that I had anger issues! Second, her tone and attitude both come off

Rude and charged me for an office visit after meeting with me for 5 minutes where no services or medical advice were given. Only offered to charge me cash to have treatment (I have insurance) in a separate visit and when stated the price laughed and said that she is 'expensive'.

Told me I had a skin issue because I was overweight. When I researched it online it said nothing about being overweight as a cause. The medication she prescribed did not work. When I called the office to tell her this, her medical assistant never called back. Would not recommend her to anyone.
