My 1st impression was not rnvery personal. My impression didnt change until last visit. staff was nice. I asked 3 TIMES for menu and I kept hearing \"everybodies different\". I wish I would have had more indepth information about my surgery and aftercare. He did put it on there to stay that I can say!!!!

My first impression of Dr. Thomas was just what I expected. He is a ver kind hearted and genuinely concerned doctor about his patients well being. He is very informative about what he is doing and all of my questions were answered professionally and in a way that I could understand. He addressed all of my concerns about risk of surgery and aftercare. He seems to be a very heartwarming person and look forward to him doing my operation.

Dr. Thomas is great! He is very helpful and attentive! he sits and listens to you and you can ask him anything. rnHe has stayed that way with each visit...I would highly recommend him.rnThe office staff are all great, very nice and understanding of how you feel and what you're going through.

My first impression was Doogie Howser. He doesn't seem to be a socially outgoing person. Over time I haven't changed that opinion but I have found him to be very competent, attentive and caring. I am neutral on his office staff - nothing negative to say but nothing to brag about yet either. He requires you to attend a seminar and he is very clear on all of the risks and expectations. He also has you go through an 'educational' session in his office with a staff member. They verbally tell you everything and then give you a whole booklet that spells everything out including eating plans, etc. I guess the thing that has impressed me the most is that he has been accessible to me since the surgery. He actually gives his patients his cell phone number to call him if you have ANY problems. I had to call him one day and was so worried that I would be 'bothering' him. He not only answered my question but went on to ask how I was doing and assured me to call him again if any more concerns arose. He also spent a good deal of time with me at both my pre-op and post-op appointments and let me ask as many questions as I wanted. He didn't rush me like most doctors tend to do. He sat in front of me and just LISTENED as long as I had anything to say.rnrnI think he is a great surgeon who truly cares about his patients.

My first impression of Dr Thomas was that he looked so young! However, after looking at all of his career accomplishments, talking with some of his patients, and talking with him realized he is actually older than I originally thought and a highly skilled and capable surgeoun. Following the required seminar, I made a one on one appointment with Dr. Thomas. He was very direct, honest, and seemed to really consider the questions and give good answers. Love his office staff. They never make you feel heavy, disgusting, etc...and my experience with them has been wonderful thus far. rnrnDr Thomas is very easy to talk to, soft spoken, and never seems rushed like so many doctors do. I really really like him and have been impressed with him and his staff. I think he is just fabulous.rnrnI have been very pleased with my experience and look forward to working with him and his staff in the future. I would highly reccomend him to anybody considering a bariatric procedure. I give him a HIGH approval rating....and everyone I know that has seen him just loves him as well.

He is the best at what he does! He is a believer. If someone is going to do surgery on me, I want them to be praying to the same God I am!

my first impression of drthomas was that he was to young to be very expierenced.but i stayed and listened to his seminar and he gave me a much better impression after i heard him speak and discuss the surgeryrni was very comfortable with him.it did not take long to realize that he was a very expierenced surgeon..the office staff was a delight.always willing to answer any questions and concerns that i had.there is nothing i could say bad against dr,thomas and his staff they have literally saved my life.not many dr would give you his personal phone number in case something was to go wrong.that was very nice of him to do such a thing.my aftercare has been wonderful,the drs office takes care of every detail.my risks of not doing the surgery was more likely death.but all risk was explained in every way.overall i would rate dr thomas as friend first and then a great surgeon. i had no complications and i have lost 80lbs in 5 months.dr thomas has great bedside manners he came and checked on me many times.talked with my family and kept them up to date about me .great docrn

I love Dr. Thomas! He is very knowledgeable and understanding of obesity. He never looks down on you or \"scolds\" you when you don't lose weight. He truly cares about you as a person. He never makes you feel like he's rushed during the office visits. His fills are painless and accurate. I would recommend him to anyone.
