About Jessica L Thompson
About the Provider
As a fellowship-trained breast surgical oncologist, I work closely with a team of medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and plastic surgeons to care for patients with breast cancer as well as benign breast disease. Alongside my clinical work, I maintain an active role in research and in the education of both residents and fellows.
My approach to care is grounded on shared decision-making and evidence-based practice. I aim to help patients understand their options so they can make informed decisions that align with their priorities. I value getting to know my patients and build relationships with them, particularly as they navigate challenging and complex decisions. I work to create a supportive environment where patients feel heard and empowered to participate in their care.

She took out my port 4 months before the first date they gave me, when I asked. I really appreciated not waiting so long. Helped me get over itching side effect.

Explained in an easy to understand manner and was very sensitive to the fact that I was not given complete diagnosis by my PCP. Very apologetic that I was not told complete information. The treatment and another biopsy may be needed.
