I was not a good candidate for surgery. Rather than trying to push surgery, the Dr let me know that and explained why. I truly appreciated the honesty and concern for my health.
Dr Thornton was very caring and explained everything in a way that was very easy to understand. He encouraged me to ask questions all through out the appointment. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing his specialty

Dr.Thornton is always excellent in his education and thorough in his exams for me. He is pleasant to talk to and seems to listen with empathy. He is down to earth and easy to be real with. I always recommend him to people who may need a plastic surgeon post mastectomy.
This is seriously the best doctor, assistant and receptionist I've ever been too. Dr Thornton and Kathy make you feel secure and confident about health issues. They make me actually feel like family!
