Dr. Thompkins has operated on me twice now. The first time he found that I have broke my back some time ago He replaced my vertebrae and took out some bone fragments. Still having some problems awhile later, Dr. Thompkins found that.i herniated my disk and also found another bone fragment. I am still healing but feeling much better. Thank you Dr. Thompkins and to all of your staff.
