I give Dr. Thomas and staff my highest recommendation, without reservation. Dr. Thomas performed my parathyroidectomy surgery. The procedure was a success with zero recovery issues. I am very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you again for doing an excellent job.

Dr. Thomas is personable, with an immediately likable personality; quick with a smile, and straight forward in his answers to your most concerning questions. He is thorough in his diagnosis and carefully plans out how the surgery will occur. I still have follow up appointments but I am pleased and elated that the surgery went very well and thought he was also pleased and maybe surprised by the outcome; as it was a "very difficult surgery"; his words not mine.

I would recommend him to anyone who is considering him to be his/her caregiver; professional, great surgeon, approachable and Atlantic health is very lucky to have him on board!

Dr. Tom Thomas is an excellent surgeon. He performed a thyroidectomy and removed one of my mom's parathyroid glands. He was excellent with my 87 y/o mother matching her one liners with his - a good sense of humor is essential when dealing with her! He explained everything on a level that both she and I could understand, assuring that we were following as he went along. He never rushed us, answering all questions. The interaction he had with his staff was respectful and professional. All his staff that we interacted with were caring and professional. I highly recommend him and his team.

My son had his thyroid removed by Dt. Thomas. From our first meeting with him, to our last visit after the operation Dr. Thomas was the ultimate professional.
We always knew my son’s thyroid was non-cancerous; but over the years it was growing in small increments. We felt that in the years to come it could interfere with either his breathing, vocal cores, eating, etc. So I decided to have it removed while my son was young and healthy . Dr. Thomas after his examination supported my decision to have the thyroid removed.
Not following the Doctor’s direction (no food or drink after midnight) my son without thinking had a cup of coffee in the morning. That led to cancelling his 10AM surgery time. Rather than send us home to try again on another day Dr. Thomas juggle his schedule and performed the operation at 4 PM. Not many doctors would be so accommodating.
We had full confidence in his professional skills and ability. Dr. Thomas and his team were a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him for any thyroid issues.

I highly recommend Dr. Thomas and his team!! I was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer in June and then was referred to Dr. Thomas for total thyroidectomy. He and his team were very kind, caring and professional. He answered all my questions and went into detail of the surgery thoroughly. The procedure went good with no complications. My recovery is quick and the scar is well healing after 2 weeks.

5 stars across the board for Dr Tom Thomas and Staff. Thrilled with diagnosis and removal of parathyroid gland. Dr Thomas and Staff so helpful, attentive, happy to answer ALL my questions and put me at ease. I was very concerned about scar I’d have rest of my life. Dr Thomas assured me it would be almost invisible and he was right! No one would even guess I had a procedure. I am thrilled with the results. Thank you, Dr Thomas and Staff.

Dr.Thomas is an amazing. I highly recommend Dr.Thomas. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer almost 2yrs ago. I had my first surgery over a year ago . I had radiation treatment 3 months after my first surgery. 3 months after radiation treatment the cancer was back. I was told i needed surgery again. I saw many dr who all told me it was a very high chance i would not be able yo speak after this surgery. Dr. Thomas was recommended to me . I was a little scared, when i went for my first visit i was not sure then i meet Dr.Thomas and was convinced he was the Dr for the job. Dr.Thomas was kind, attentive, knew the right answer to my question even my children’s question. My children was comfortable and i was very excited to go threw this journey with Dr. Thomas. My surgery went amazing . I woke up and i can speak ! Dr.Thoms is amazing at what he does and i am so thankful i can tell my children and my granddaughters i love them !!

I would like to highly recommend Dr. Tom Thomas, I was diagnosed in September 2022 with thyroid cancer and it spread to some of my lymph nodes and Dr.Bhanu Iyer recommend him to be my surgeon for my total thyroidectomy and neck dissection, I was really scared about this surgery, but when I met with Dr. Tom Thomas, he took his time to explain to me about the surgery and even he drew a picture and went into every detail of the surgery and made me feel more comfortable and secure to continue with the surgery. The day of the surgery I met with his surgical team and he came before the surgery to check on me. The after care of the surgery in the Hospital was one of the best and his team is really professional and caring. The scar of the surgery after 6 months you can't even see it at all. His skills as surgeon are amazing, and he is a wonderful human being. He is an excellent, caring doctor and I will highly recommend him as a surgeon, I don't have the words to said thank you for the amazing job you did. Thank you all!
