Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Responsive, attentive, and compassionate
Dr. Tompkins and his team always make us feel heard and never rushed. He takes the time to listen and talk through any questions we have.

Thankful for this Doctor
Dr. Tompkins is by far the best doctor I have had. He does not rush you and will sit to listen to your concerns. He is thorough and explains any medications prescribed. Doctor Tompkins explains the physiology of your anatomy using pretty funny, but easy to understand, analogies! I went through one of the most difficult times in my life and he squeezed me in that day. He listened to me and helped me through a time of distress. Dr. Tompkins is a very proactive physician and I truly appreciate him! After your appointment, you are sent a link to view a summary of what you spoke about, what you were prescribed, and anything else that went on during your appointment. The entire staff is kind and friendly. I am so thankful I found this establishment! You should all know, you are amazing! To the other review listed here: I am shocked at the negativity expressed in the review. It is opposite of what I experience with this doctor. If he isn’t a good physician, why go to him for so many years?

Disappointed w/this Family Physician.We'd been going to him for years, as were our adult children, his common approach to concerns was, what do you think the problem is.He's a nice enough man, but he doesn't have a clue as to how to treat more than a common cold.Our son switched to another Dr. recently & was told that he has deficiencies w/Vit. B, C,Folic acid & now blood in his stool & now looking at getting a colonoscopy. Husband was treated for wrong issue & transferred to another Dr. too
