I have had the good fortune of meeting with Dr. Thomas and both of her PAs. They were all very caring and kind to me and really would like to help me with the problems I brought to the appointment.
  Jan 26, 2024
The provider took time to listen to the whole story of my injury. She was extremely helpful as far as explaining my condition and the process that will unfold moving forward. She was kind, compassionate, respectful, and treated me like a while complicated person and not just a series of symptoms. I would recommend her without hesitation - this was honestly one of the best interactions I've ever had with a medical provider.
  Jan 12, 2024
Every staff person I have encountered have been very friendly, respectful, helpful and efficient. This office functions very efficiently. Dr Thomas was very personable and really listened to me. It was obvious that she had reviewed my chart and the documentation and test results done so far. She clearly explained her assessment of my problem, her suggested plan of action and plan for follow up. I left feeling very confident in her expertise and that she truly cared.
