About John Thompson, MD

My pediatrician was an inspiration to me and it seemed that becoming a physician would be satisfying on many levels. Having medical problems can be unsettling, and patients can feel a loss of control over their health. In my spare time I enjoy running, playing tennis, watching baseball, listening to music and reading.
