“Doctor Thomas was very attentive and inquisitive about my concerns. She ensured that all concerns were addressed. Communication was well, she guided me through next steps and even contacted me after hours through message portal to ensure that I received my prescriptions. She left notes on all of my bloodwork, explaining anything that was out of range and how we would proceed. Lastly, I felt very seen and heard at my appointment!”

Dr. Thomas has been amazing. She was very thorough and went through my entire medical history with me during our first appointment to make sure that she was addressing all my needs. She did not seem rushed at all and really took the time to hear what I had to say. When going over possible treatments, she gave me options and allowed me to make the best decision for me. She also checked about whether I had already seen another doctor for my annual physical to make sure that I was being charged appropriately by my insurance. Really a wonderful experience.

After some awful past experiences with doctors, it was refreshing to see someone who was informative, polite, and intelligent. She was really professional and helpful in giving me solutions to my issue and I appreciate her insight. Definitely recommend her, especially to women patients with a bad experience of a doctor mansplaining their problems in the past!

Dr. Thomas is kind and compassionate. She helped me with a tough diagnosis of PCOS and answered all of my questions while also referring me to a great specialist. It’s rare to come across primary care doctors like her who hold a safe space for patients.

December 21, 2021Dennis K.Verified patient
Back in the days my sister and I would inherently be seen by our mothers primary doctor and/or gynecologist but just the thought alone made my 11 year old feel uncomfortable and seemed weird and creepy.
Zocdoc helped us find a real modern medical professional that was understanding, easy to talk to, spoke frequent in "millennial" and most importantly Human. Now my tween can enter middle school a bit more confident and secure of herself knowing she has her very on medical professionals that she hand picked and trust program on her smartphone/ device under emergency contact right next to her Parents, Grandparents, and Siblings,
Dr. Thomas was super resourceful in various ways of helping my tween.
