Dr. Thoppil was absolutely wonderful! The best doctor visit I have EVER experienced. He took the time and kind, comfortable approach to explain thoroughly my concerns and health symptoms. He went beyond making the first Obgyn expeShow morerience understandable and educational, along with making it very comfortable. I left there with an absolute decision to go to him for all of my future health needs and visits. If only he could be my family doctor too! Hands down, best medical experience between his helpful, friendly staff and his great experience as a Obgyn doctor. I was referred to him by a coworker that chose Dr. Thoppil for her gynecologist, planning for a pregnancy, child birth, and after. I thought.. that's incredible, convenient, and easy on a new mother/current mother. She was very enthusiastic about sharing her experiences she had with his facility, staff, and his work. After my appointment, he asked out of curiousity, if I was recommended by someone, and I told him my co-workers first name. He knew right off the bat who had recommended me. How often is a practice that friendly and personal with their patients? So lastly, I do recommend his practice, because I have never had such a good experience in my life. My boyfriend/soon to be fiancé was very please and happy that I was well taken care of. Thumbs up for sure. Sincerely, Alison
Having moved from Houston at the end of my second trimester I struggled a bit to find an OBGYN that I was comfortable with and also a practice that was more about the patient and less about being a business (my Houston doctor thouShow moregh was good and belonged to an all female OBGYN group, the billing and general coding of visits was a constant issue because they were incapable of clarifying procedure code usage...also recommended procedures were always performed without consent in the name of 'mandatory' steps thereby making the patient think it is covered by insurance). At Riverplace OBGYN I feel it is very much a 'people based' practice where they treat people and are not only money minded. The level of care and steps taken to clarify details is exceptional. I am enjoying being taken care by a smaller team with such a high quality of care.

Dr. Justiss was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I feel so fortunate to have had the experience I did where every process was explained to me.

She went through everything with me and answered all my questions, she was kind even though I was probably just paranoid, and she made me feel like she cared! I love this place.
