Dr. Thompson specializes in women’s health and chronic disease management, including the effects of stress on women’s overall health. She also works with adolescents (boys and girls), often her adult patients’ children – with a focus on teen mental health challenges.

As a mother to two teenagers - a son and daughter - she feels a closeness with teens and understands their anxieties. “I find it very rewarding to help them make the transition during that stage in life,” she says. “I really like taking care of the whole family. Sometimes I get dads and grandparents, too, all from the same family.” Clinical Interests Family Medicine, Preventive Care, Primary Care, Adult Health, Adolescent Health
