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. Listens and cares about your issues. Gives great advice to help you with any decision making. Highly recommend him.

I have gone to Dr Thomas in the past and just recently for a torn ligament. He ordered an MRI which revealed another issue. Just to be thorough, given my medical history, he ordered another test which would rule out any immediate/long-term problems. He is is what all doctors should aspire to be, professional, courteous and patient focused. Thanks again Doc.

I recently underwent a Total Hip Replacement with Dr Thomas. I could not have been happier with my experience and result. From his caring and open bedside manner to his surgical expertise he was awesome through the whole process. I feel like a new man. I would gladly reccomend him to any of my friends and family.I dont think I could feel any better than I do right now

I had a ACL reconstruction back in 2008 by Dr Thomas.... It was workers comp and he never once tried to put me off on a lesser doctor because of my payer source.... He was very upfront with everything, and extremely easy to just talk with to calm nerves I never recommend anyone but him.

Dr. Thomas did my right tkr in Dec 2016. Recovery was exactly as he described. I was well prepared for each step and my knee is perfect. He is a highly skilled surgeon and an incredibly caring physician. My son is touring colleges right now, which is why I desperately needed this replacement. Last year, I couldn't have done them. Yesterday was the first one since surgery and I was able to do the whole tour with NO PAIN! I recommend Dr. Thomas to anyone experiencing joint pain. He is the best!

Failed to prescribe a common arthritis medication following knee surgery, despite multiple visits and complaints of ongoing pain for MONTHS following surgery. I went to another doctor who prescribed low-dosage meloxicam, and I was pain-free within three days. I lost months of my life to persistent pain and Dr. Thomas's lack of basic care.

Family of 6 going to Dr Thomas for over 15 years. He is simply the best. Very friendly, extremely knowledgable, and conveys it well. can't say enough about him. Early on I forgot dr Thomas name and guessed wrong one and I had one bad Dr there and he is long gone. Other specialty doctors there that Dr Thomas recommends are great. I trust him and his advice. All four of my kids and I see him.
