Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Thomas has been an incredible primary care physician. All of my appointments started on time or even a little early, and he is so thorough and kind. Because of his thoroughness, he was able to identify and diagnose a problem that otherwise would have never been detected since I was completely asymptomatic! He and all of his staff have been pleasant to work with, and they have answered all of my questions and sent whatever paperwork needed with such speed and punctuality. I do not have enough kind words to say about Dr. Thomas and the entire team, they are awesome and highly recommended!

Worse Doctor
Dr. Thomas puts money before the patient. Twice he charged me for a Wellness Exam (which medicare offers patients free) and an office visit. A Wellness exam should take 30 minutes. His assistant as part of the wellness exam asked me to draw a clock and memorize 3 words. Dr. Thomas then appeared for about 3 minutes. When I got the bill, I owed, $183. I called his office and the manager made up a number of excuses as to why both the Wellness exam and an office visit were charged. All of the excuses were none sensible. Also Dr. Thomas refused to renew (did not have any left) my blood pressure medicine insisting I needed to change the medicine. I told him I was perfectly happy with the current medicine and was not going to change. That medicine only cost me $12 a year. He wanted to change it to a med that cost $150 for 90 days. When I asked him to just renew the medicine. He told me to find a new doctor. Thank goodness I did so but ran out of the medicine before I could.

We are NOT happy with Dr Thomas
We are done with Dennis Thomas. He prioritizes making money over proper patient care. He has a poor attitude, is uncooperative on prescriptions and rushes exams. We have received unexpected inappropriate bills. Poor communication. Avoid and beware.

Dr. Dennis Thomas lacks empathy, care, and respect for his patient. He cares only about the money. I was billed inappropriately for an "office visit" and he refused to acknowledge that the bill was incorrect ($152 for 30 seconds of his time, signed a form for work, did not complete a physical exam yet billed my insurance for a physical exam), even after speaking with the billing department and his office manager. The negative reviews are true. Please consider looking into a different family practice.

I never made it to the appointment because my past experience with the rest of the staff was HORRIBLE. They are rude, unprofessional and just want the money. They do not care about you.

I would never recommend this thing. Bad attitude, doesn't care and acts like you are wasting his time. Some things just shouldn't work with people if you hate them. One of the biggest jerks I have ever met. I have met a lot of doctors, this thing is hands down THE WORST. I know a preacher who had not one good thing to say about this thing. If you want a doctor who acts like a human being, don't make an appointment with this thing. He treated me so badly that it gave me anxiety to see doctors
