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.

Dr Thorson is the best pcp I’ve had in years.

Excellent
I’m new to town and seeking a pcp. After reading one of the reviews posted here, I almost put Dr Thorson on my no list, until a patient of hers highly recommended her. She is thorough, honest and responsive. She reads messages sent through MyChart. She orders the tests needed and listens to her patients. As a registered nurse, I have more insight into healthcare than most, and she respects that. I have found my primary care provider.

Absolute worst doctor I have ever encountered. She is a liar, she lies about her patient’s intentions and she twists and lies about what they say to her. She makes up false notes and makes false accusations and she does not listen or care about what her patients have to say. She has absolutely no bedside manner and is the most unprofessional and unqualified doctor EVER! Altru in general is an awful hospital, they are only there for the money, not to care for their patients the way they need. I would send this doctor a bag of D¡cks if she was even worth a penny out of my pocket. I despise this doctor, she shouldn’t even be allowed to practice medicine. You don’t even deserve the 1 star I’m giving you. Pathetic excuse of a medical practitioner.
