Dr. Joseph Peter Thornton, MD

almost 2 yrs ago I had rectal surgery done by this surgeon and my life was destroyed.I went to see him with regular clothes and left with diapers and still with diapers today.After the followed exam.sad to me I have to do another surgery and because I do not know how i must have another surgeon to do it .I walked out and never went back.I wonder how this man can call him self a surgeon he proved to me any way he is a phony J P from no.las vegas

had a colonscopy 2 years ago and he still takes my calls if I need a recommendation for another problem. He is so kind and a great Dr.

Ruined me and now I have to have surgery to repair the damage he has done to me. I have suffered 3 years from it and now will have it finally operated on repair the damage he has done to me. Stay away from him. He thinks he knows it all no compassion.

Burned out, unfriendly, no bedside manner, lacking in diagnostic efforts, uncaring.

Horrible Dr. I went to see him because I had symptoms Of fistula he told me that I had diverticulitis and he had to cut part of my intestine. I went through surgery because I was desperate After the surgery he told me that I didn't have diverticulitis and he didn't need to do anything. He left me a huge Ugly scar I felt he did the surgery just to charge the insurance. And his nurse was very rude

This wonderful doctor saved my life and then gave me new life. After diagnosing the removal of my colon he took the time to consider re-connection (J pouch surgery) and gave me the best quality of life I could have hoped for after years of suffering from ulcerative colitis. His thoughtfulness and expertise is granted to all his patients and I would not hesitate to recommend this considerate and skilled surgeon to all that require this specialty.
