MBA – Administrator, PVH Hospital

I have had the pleasure or working with Dr. Thompson. He is committed to the serving his patients with care and compassion. Additionally, he is devoted to sharing his surgical knowledge and experience with medical students and residents. Amazingly, Dr. Thompson finds time to stay abreast of current social and economic issues impacting healthcare. It is always refreshing to have a surgeon discuss issues with their Administrator that take into consideration the entire wellbeing of the patient.

MD, MHCM, FACS, Acute Care Surgeon

I am a practicing trauma surgeon and have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Thompson personally and professionally for the last 20 years. In addition to being a great friend, Dr. Thompson has proven to be an excellent clinician and academician. He has provided excellent counsel over the years and always emphasizes the need to back decisions with data. I have had the pleasure of being a co-author on several of his publications and have been the recipient of his wise counsel personally and professionally over the years.

Trauma Director, Cooper Hospital

I have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Thompson for at 20 years. I am a fellow trauma surgeon and we met at a conference and became instant friends and colleagues. My only regret is that I have never been able to get him to come work for me but now he is a leader in his own right and I may have to beg him for a job one day. He is an excellent trauma surgeon, true sports fan, political advocate and an even better human being.
