Doctor Thornton is one of the kindest, most sincere and skilled Doctor I have had. His work is outstanding and he is very straight with ANY information needed or requested. I trust this man with my life and have. I would also like to address his nurse, April. She is amazing! Two of the kindest people I have met in my experience with cancer. I did not find that to be the case with the hospital mammogram department. Thank you both for being you.
