Dr. Thornton is absolutely amazing! He listens and cares about the patient which I experienced while sharing my concerns during the appointment on October 9th. I am very pleased with the service that I received from this facility. The nurse who handled my triage care was very nice and professional. Sandra was very nice and professional. She took care of scheduling my annual appointment during checkout. Thank you Dr. Thornton and staff!
