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.

Nerve pain in foot
Dr. Thompson is kind, concerned and empathetic. I have seen him for 2 or 3 different issues in the last several years. I believe he is thorough and very knowledgeable in his field of expertise. You won't be disappointed if you choose him to be your foot specialist.

Ankle surgery
An amazing man with great manners. Extremely knowledgeable about what’s going on without 27 appointments and scans. Highly highly recommend. I had 4 surgeries in my ankle and every time I improved. Up and walking again. Call him!

Ankle Pain
Dr. Thompson explained things in layman terms. His demeanor was comforting and immediately put my worse fears to rest. I felt he spent the time listening and hearing my concerns and, I did not feel like he rushed out of my appointment. Thankful for the plan going forward and will definitely go back if I need to have my ankle checked again. Highly recommend!

Gastroc lengthening
Dr. Thompson was very attentive and listened to my problem. I have been to several podiatrist and multiple orthopedic surgeons. Dr. Thompson offered a solution resulting in two surgeries. The surgeries did exactly what he said they would do, and increased the flexibility of my feet. I am only a few months postoperation, so I am still waiting to see if it will fix the heal pain that I have. I can definitely see a huge difference in the tightness of my legs, giving me high hopes. My overall experience with Dr. Thompson is a great one. I would definitely recommend him to someone with similar problems.
