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.

From the moment I walked in, everyone in the office was super friendly and super eager to help me get settled in. There were never any issues with any of the paperwork, no issues with the appointment, and everything was done very efficiently both with regards to time and stress (or lack thereof). The medical staff and Dr. Thorpe were awesome listeners and I felt very acknowledged in the room. I was given a lot of privacy when appropriate and hi had all of my questions answered and all of my concerns addressed. I would highly recommend this office. I felt very welcomed.

The best surgeon ever in my book and that is saying a lot for the 80 some surgeries that I have had. He spoiled me so much that I never wanted any other surgeon operating on me. He is kind and considerate, respectful. listens, explains everything in great detail and never had any additional questions, which is very unusual. His bedside manner is the very best that I ever experienced! I am shocked that I.U. Ball hospital no longer employees Dr. Thorpe and very, very sad that I can"t reach him because I would follow him any where, he is that good!!! Also, last surgery, which I had three by him, last one in September of 2018 and I need more! If anyone knows where Dr. Thorpe will be practicing next at, please, please contact me threw this site and I will keep checking back. Thank you Dr. Thorpe for all of your care and letting God guide those skilled hands and the between and knowing the difference between the two!

I was able to participate in surgical observation with Dr. Thorpe for a patient that underwent an unusual surgical procedure and found that he was very professional and willing to explain the procedure in great detail for the best rehabilitative outcome possible for this particular patient. I highly recommend Dr. Thorpe.

I have the highest regard and leave a stunning review for Dr. Michael Thorpe. He successfully repaired broken/crushed ribs when other doctors refused to treat me. With minimally invasive technique, I am breathing, standing, and moving pain free. I do not exaggerate when I say I am confident Dr. Thorpe has added many pain-free years to a once very painful existence. I will forever be grateful.
