He is great! Always kind & listens to concerns

Dr Thigpen shows he cares about his patients.
He genuinely is concerned about his work and that is important when choosing a doctor that is going to perform surgery.

Dr. Thigpen is always easy to talk to and is very caring.

Always listens and goes out of his way to give me the best care possible. He even called to check on me on his personal cell phone. You just don’t find doctors that do that. I was very impressed.

Excellent surgeon with a sense of humor

I’ve had 3 surgeries with Dr. Thigpen over a 10 year period including both bunions and an OCD lesion repair to my ankle. All of my recoveries went well. He make very tidy incisions that heal so beautifully. My broken ankle was a bit of a mess but he cleaned it up and it’s pain free. He's a popular guy so you may a wait but it’s worth it. All of the support staff in his office are friendly and knowledgable.

Very personable. Thorough in the exam.

Dr. Thigpen explained two options for surgery and gave me a clear understanding of which procedure was best for me.

Dr. Thigpen was very professional and attentive.

He reviewed the X-rays with me and spoke so I could understand what’s going on with my injury.
