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.

Knowledgeable and Trustworthy
Dr. Thomas is a skilled, knowledgeable, and honest doctor who cares about his patients. He has helped me come to terms with my situation, which unfortunately is yet to be identified. However, he has helped to provide me with helpful information and medications allowing me to better manage my symptoms. He has faithfully listened and validated my concerns when other doctors would not.

The best GI Dr.
Dr. Thomas is very professional compassionate, respectful and kind. He listens to my issues & works with me on a treatment regimen. I have never felt rushed or like just a number. I truly felt cared for during my visits. Ulcerative Colitis is a terrible disease & he’s been on this journey with me since he diagnosed me almost 20 years ago. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He has always explained everything in a manner that one could easily understand. Before & after every colonoscopy he has been thorough & concerned about my results as well as rejoiced with me whenever there was improvement. He’s truly the best there is! His nurse, Amy, is top notch! She answers questions & returns calls promptly. She’s also very kind & concerned about my health & wellbeing. I have rarely had to wait for my appointment & if I did, they have always been apologetic. It may take a month or longer to see him but that’s because he’s so good. If you’re looking for the best, he’s it!!!

Felt at ease
The staff are very friendly and professional answering any questions I had about my procedure. Dr. Thomas talked to me just before the procedure, his “bedside manner “ was casual and reassuring! I recommend Dr. Thomas for anyone in this area!

Dr. Thomas was professional and pleasant. He asked about concerns or questions before procedure without rushing me. I had none because the paperwork I had received when I made the appointment detailed what would take place and included a number to call if I still had questions. After procedure he explained results then walked back over without being asked when he saw my husband arrive and went over results again. I received a call from his office the day after to check on me & answer any ?'s.
