Dr.Thompson made every effort to help with a vision emergency. He suggested it could be TIA’s after a stroke. He didn’t just drop it. He contacted our other doctors and we are moving forward. The diagnosis wasn’t good but we certainly appreciate his compassion, knowledge and action. Thank You Dr. Thompson❗️
Dr. Thompson is very patient with me. I possibly might need a procedure and he’s very thorough in his answers and answers any questions I come up with so that I can understand exactly what’s going on. And I never feel rushed.
