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.

Great Doctor. 4/4/2023, where is Doctor Lorna Tho
Doctor L.Thomas treated me for mole removal. The treatments were very helpful. The staff and doctor was always professional.

CONT... It was just hydrocortisone and something else. I asked”How do I determine whether I should use the hydrocortisone or the other med? She says” I guess you have to go to medical school” I thought I was in the twilight zone. I didn’t understand why she was being so rude and disrespectful.She eventually explained when to use each med.I’ve never been treated so poorly by someone who I was giving my money to.I'm convinced she’s at a point in her life where she thinks she can treat people disrespectfully and hey are just supposed to shut up and take it. After being treated so poorly, I couldn’t understand why she had average to good overall review rating. Look more closely at her 5 star reviews, you’ll see most of them are posted on the same day or within 1 day of each other.That leads me to believe they are fake reviews posted by her staff or someone else she told to post them.It’s very unlikely that real patients would post 5 star reviews on the same day on multiple occasions.

Dr. Thomas' advice is spot on, something that I haven't experienced with dermatologists all over the country. My skin is clearer and healthier than it has ever been, and I am in my 40's! Previously, I would have been a perfect 'before' model for an acne medicine commercial. Now, people compliment me on how beautiful my skin is.... something I never thought I would experience. Thank you, Dr. Thomas!
