Patient Reviews
Mar 12, 2020
Today I had a procedure performed by Dr. Gary Thompson. During my consultation with him a few days before the procedure, he patiently explained the process and what I can expect before, during and after the procedure. He prepared me mentally for the procedure. The procedure went smoothly and professionally, and following the procedure he was very patient in explaining to me what he found during the procedure and the actions that he took. I highly recommend Dr. Thompson for any gastroenterology issues that you might have.
