So far 1 weeks post surgery with doc has been wonderful. My prior to surgery symptoms are completely resolved and my recovery has been going waaaayyyy better than I could have ever asked for. All of the great things I have heard about him were just instantly verified. Highly recommended for any of your back needs.
He's the G.O.A.T. I've been seeing Dr Thompkins for years. He's Extremely Professional and Extremely personable !! He stresses conservative treatment but if/when surgery is needed, he's a Great surgeon !! Great Person/ Great Surgeon.... Love this Guy !!
I really like Dr Thomkins. Very professional & very kind.
Considerate, honest in his statements and very knowledgeable about the spine.
Dr Thompkins always explains what’s going on and answers questions. He had a student with him and asked if ok to be part of visit!
Efficient and was to the point.
What a great human being
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.
Simply the best.
Did not spend time in room. As a new patient only spent 10 minutes total in the room.
