I would recommend Dr. Thomas because she has calming, caring professional bedside manners.
This is my second time seeing Dr. Thomas within a two year span. The first time I seen her I wasn't quite sure about her being my provider but I must say this visit she wowed me. She was caring, thorough, and concerned.
She is pleasant but a little hasty when it comes to talking to her.
She gets a 10+ in all areas
It was my first time seeing Dr. Thomas and would recommend her to friends and family.
