Dr. Thomas delivered me 22 years ago. I actually grew up with a different doctor and voluntarily sought out Dr. Thomas several years ago to change my family doctor BACK to her. I am sincerely pleased to have her as my family doctor. The number one reason for this: I am completely confident in her abilities. Whether or not her hands are cold is not important to me. I trust her wholeheartedly to know what is best for my health. I agree that she does not often prescribe medication, and for me, that is a huge draw! I appreciate that Dr. Thomas deals with the CAUSE of the problem rather then the symptoms. I have found her to be extremely respecftul to me and my choices as well as diplomatic about issues that may have been uncomfortable. I only wish that she will continue to do deliveries, so that one day I may also give birth with a doctor that I trust.

Dr. Thomas is probably one of the better physicians that I have seen to monitor a pregnancy or look after the needs of child, in my case. Her office is clean, accessible, she takes appoinments usually within a day or two. I have not seen her in action treating any other adult situations but I would likely score her on the higher end of her profession. As for prescribing medications for pain. I can see her point when it is likely 3/4 of narcotic prescription drugs are being sold on the street right now, or used for unintended puposes

I have seeing Dr.Thomas for several years and very unhappy with her. What a waste of time going in to see her. I can predict what she is going to tell me and what her treatment will be. Look into your ears, check your blood pressure and then look at you and say. I have no idea what is wrong with you. You ask for blood test and her answer is why. You ask for your yearly physical and she tells you it's not necessary to have one every year?????? I'm looking for a new doctor but you know how hard it is to find one. She is quick to judge you and not compassionate in any way.

I was actually a little surprised to read all these terrible things about this doctor. I have been seeing her for 24 years and I disagree with all these comments. In my eyes she has been wonderful! She delivered my baby, and took on my husband as a new patient when I got married! We all know how hard it is to find a doctor, let alone a GOOD doctor. Not to mention how nice the receptionist is. Incase it isn't obvious, you can't treat a virus! People run to the doctor fot the flu and what do you expect her to do? She is kind mannered, warm and thorough, I am happy to be her patient. I never have trouble getting in to see her when me or my family is sick, I think there should be more doctors like her! Keep it up Dr. Thomas

I thought I was alone in my disgust!! She should be reported to the CPSO for neglect. Does not listen to patient communication whatsoever. Insulted me for having MS, saying I was a bad example for my children ( because I could not work). Refuses to give referrals, saying no one can help me anyway. Left several years ago now, haven't had a Dr since, but do not suffer her verbal assaults any longer. Knowing I am not alone in my experience has made my day. Thanks.

The worst doctor you will ever meet. If you're reading (but you're probably not, since you're not up-to-date with internet) TREAT YOUR PATIENTS! I actually quit seeing her, I haven't seen her since... i think 3 years. Guess I'm not in the mood for her freezing cold fingers examining me only to tell me to come back when my problem is fixed. (Why would I have come to you?!)
