Attentive & expert care!

Dr. Thompson performed an umbilical hernia repair and a bowel resection shortly after the birth of my second child. Before, during and after these procedures he was intent on providing thorough details about everything involve with these surgeries and was extremely patient with my many questions. Dr. Thompson genuinely cares about not only the physical well being of his patients, but the emotional well being. Given that I had these procedures during a time when I was experiencing heightened emotions from postpartum hormones, Dr. Thompson made sure to make me feel well taken care of and calm. What I most appreciate about Dr. Thomspon is the consistent follow up after the procedures. In the week following my surgeries, I was contacted by Dr. Thompson many times. He and his team go above and beyond!

no better place to be

from the moment i was diagnosed with appendicitis the care was excellent. dr thompson was a true professional. he took time before surgery to explain procedure and called day after to see how i was. i have had multiple surgeries in the past and he was by far the best doctor. the staff at his office is excellent as well.

Nothing short of AMAZING

My case was complicated from the beginning and Dr Thompson and his staff went above and beyond to make sure everything would be ok. Not only have I lost weight but my overall health has improved. I am no longer on blood pressure medication and my sleep apnea is no longer an issue. I have been able to keep up with my children and do much more with them. Dr Thompson has completely changed my life.

Dr. Thompson is amazing, I would do surgery with him all over but I don't need to because he is teaching me to use my new tool.

Excellent, well cared for, & minamal discomfort .

Friday night @ 9 or 10 pm, I developed a pain in my lower right side. Saturday I took an ambulance to LI community hospital. i was diagnosed with appendicitis. I had it removed that day. Dr Thompson & team did a wonderful job. Hospital personnel were equally good in their jobs. A Nurse remained with me until I was fully up & ready to go home. I will definitely recommend Dr Thompson to everyone requiring his skills.
