Patient Reviews
Aug 20, 2021
Dr Thomas has the most efficient office I’ve ever encountered. I was throughly impressed with his staff and even more so with him after my consultation for my knee pain. I was delighted to learn that he is now a Medicare provider and was able to get gel injection shots and be happily on my way. I will return again for future visits if needed
