Education

Dr. Niketa Thompson is a native of Mississippi. She was born in Huntsville so returning to Alabama is like coming home. Dr. Thompson completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology, graduating from Oakwood University in Huntsville, AL.

She traveled to Suriname, South America, to the Amazon, learning to extract teeth and other procedures benefitting natives, under the tutelage of Dr. Rick Cole of Yuba City, CA. After completing her bachelor’s degree, Dr. Thompson was admitted to the University of Mississippi Medical Center School of Dentistry, where she obtained her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree.

Following dental school Dr. Thompson furthered her scope of practice by completing a General Practice Residency at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, an advanced educational training and hospital-based program focused on medically compromised patients. There she treated patients with special healthcare needs, senior citizens and became a Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Medical Provider.

Before pursuing private practice, Dr. Thompson worked in a fast-paced corporate setting, seeing patients and managing a fully staffed office.
