Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Thomas?
I was in the ER a few years ago and had to have my appendix out. He was so informative and explained the procedure. During the procedure, there was a major complication, and I was told later that Dr. Thomas knew how to handle this and because of this, the opening much smaller. He is an exceptional surgeon, and I lucked out to have gotten him. I would use him & recommend him to others. Like the other surveys say, he really takes his time and is very patient friendly. I highly recommend him.
