At first it was okay he canceled our second session, I have lent him $1200 to be paid back, he shut the shop down last day of June 2017, guys a user. He promised to pay me back, can't find him now, but took legal action, Advice from his probation officer! Sorry Doug Thompson, you have not seen the last of me

I've had two piercings and one tattoo from Doug. I'm always pleased with his work. Love the shop it's clean and really nice. Very welcoming atmosphere. I had a back piece done by Gina who also works there, and my husband is currently seeing Gina for his back piece. I recommend them to all my friends.

Yup... He is awesome... Known him for many years, always got a tattoo the same day regardless of the kind, place of tattoo or size. Will always go to him. He has done all but 2 of them...

I was supposed to get work done by the guy who owns the place. I made the mistake of paying him $200 up front, and he didn't even do $50 worth due to him continuously rescheduling and blowing me off each time. When he actually does do work he isn't prepared at all. I had an appointment at 5pm once, and had to wait around for almost 3 hours for him to finally start because he was trying to multitask and ended up only tattooing for thirty minutes, the next time he tattooed me his tattoo machine shorted out, and i had to wait another twenty minutes while he rewired it because he didn't have spares. Very unprepared and unprofessional.

I stopped by the shop on a Saturday, I asked if anyone could finish my leg piece. The man standing out front told me he did not feel like doing it at that time. He said he had 10 minutes to spare but no time to finish my piece. VERY rude. I will never go back again, and I will never suggest anyone go here.

So my sisters and I went to a place in Michigan City, I won't name names, but they quoted my sisters tattoo (that said love in black and 4 birds the size of her hand) at 200 and wouldn't budge on pricing. We heard of full throttles opening and Doug fit us in as his last slot for the night. We got there, his designs were perfect and my sisters tattoo that was 200 was now 80.

I have gotten 9 big pieces by doug and they are absolutely amazing. He will sit with you while he puts your tattoo together and makes sure it's exactly what you want. He does amazing work. He also did my dermals and made sure I was comfortable during everything. The shop is super clean and the environment is awesome. I get several compliments on my tattoos and I always refer them to doug!!!
