Dr Dopson combines years of experience with a caring "Bedside manner". He patiently answers my questions and one walks away totally convinced he has your best interests in his mind. Also, his two nurses, JJ and Ally, have always been helpful and quick to answer my questions on the patient portal. A first class office all the way!

Dr. Thomas Dopson at Resurgens Orthopedics has been my physician for many years. I receive solid diagnoses with actionable goals for my orthopedic healthcare. Arthritis is not curable but Dr. Dopson has always prescribed excellent recommendations for Physical Therapy & medicine to address my ongoing health & sustain as active a lifestyle available for me. Thanks to his entire staff for their assistance in always making themselves available to work through insurance, pharmaceutical & testing processes.

Very thorough in his exam and history taking. Discussed in details my options and explained why he was suggesting my treatment plan. Very caring,
