    What Melanoma can do to you... wear sunscreen, preferably one with zinc in it!
    Krystal B.

    I visited Dr. Thompson in late July. I called in and made an appointment to see Dr. Thompson. I did not make a medical appointment specifically nor did I make a cosmetic appointment specifically. I simply made an appointment to have a spot on my face looked at and try to figure out how to get rid of it. Dr. Thompsons website is EXTREMELY Deceptive! She states medical dermatology as well as skin cancer and she shows to be a medical Dr. so you'd think she'd know what she's looking at or at least have it biopsied before going forward with any other treatments. Well, she didn't... she walked in and first thing she did was take out a magnifying glass, took a look at my spot (that to me states medical exam) and then stated it's nothing! She recommended I get a chemical peel; even said it should just peel right off and what doesn't she'd have me back and microdermabrasion would take care of the rest!!!! Well, it didn't peel right off and I'd never had a chemical peel and it wasn't pleasant at all! The spot got worse quick, it got darker, raised and started to itch! I decided to go get a facial at the medispa I regular and I told her about my experience and she recommended I go to a specialist and gave me the name and number of one. She also told me that Dr. Thompson is not a licensed Dermatogist nor is she board certified and then she told me what to look for next time so I'd know that! It took me almost two months to get into see the specialist but after looking at the spot they told me they needed to biopsy it before deciding which path to take. I had to wait several days for the results but when they called me I was unbelievably ANGRY at Dr. Thompson when it was diagnosed as MELANOMA!!!!! Yes, it was melanoma before Dr. Thompson saw me but she should've known even if she's not a licensed dermatologist because she is a medical Dr.!!! She didn't take it serious and I lived with the spot 4 more months allowing it to grow deeper. The surgeon had to cut into my cheek, I had to wait and hour on testing and then if not cleared he had to cut again and I had to wait again on the testing and this took multiple times, over six hours to be exact! I'll never ever recommend Dr. Thompson and I hope that she will take situations like this differently in the future!!

    Doctor and staff are so informative and kind. I drive 45 minutes to see Dr. Thompson, wouldn't trust anyone else with my face! Very honest on what you need and do not let you over do it!

I've only lived in Galveston for about three years so I don't know much about the salons, spas, or medi spas here.... and Galveston can be a little ghetto lol! But I'm so glad I took a chance! Mikala, the owner and laser specialist is so nice and knowledgeable. I went there to get the spider veins removed on my thighs. During my treatment, Mikayla and I had a great conversation and she made me feel very comfortable. She did an excellent job and I will definitely be going back to get my tattoo removed and a chemical peel. Affordable, extremely clean, and friendly staff! What more could you ask for?! I'm so pleased with my results. If I seen overly excited it's because I am!!!!

I was led to believe my results would be the same as Mikayla's because she said my skin was like hers. No one ever told me there was the possibility of No change in my skin. And they claim to offer "hands-on aftercare" -- I received absolutely no after care phone calls; just cryptic 3-4 word texts like "As expected. Same today." and "Gentle salt scrub today. 2x if no reaction". After traveling to Galveston, spending $1200 and getting no results, I would not recommend Beautiful Laser to anyone -- I feel totally taken advantage of!

Went in for a simple heel spur surgery on November 14, 2025 and it's now May and the surgeon Dr. Punchbhavi screwed up and I've been laying in my bed for 7 months in constant enormous pain and the foot is still numb and all kinds of nerve damage and they refuse to do anything as my body is just withering away. My health is deteriorating and I have zero life and they refuse to help with the pain but yet patient advocate and the medical staff is worried about me using cuss words after 7 months of constant pain rather than getting me healthy and fixing their mistakes. Dr. Punchbhavi tried to amputate my neighbors toe also and he saw another Doctor and with some physical therapy, my neighbor is just fine and didn't lose his toe. Very poor ethics, if they have any at all. If this is what they teach their students is neglect, we are going to have some terrible doctors and nurses. If you can avoid this hospital, by all means do so. Nobody has returned my calls or messages or even attempted to fix me. I should've never went to them. I was active until I went to UTMB, now I'm bed ridden and can't do a single thing. Some times I can't even make it to the bathroom.
