Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Fantastic Experience
Dr. Thomas corrected my A-fib completely in one procedure. I walked out the next day feeling 20 years younger. What a difference. Everything about my interactions with Dr. Thomas and the hospital went well. Appointments were easy, wait time minimal and Dr. Thomas listened to me, asked pertinent questions and carefully explained all options. It has been 18 months and my heart hasn't missed a beat. Thank you Dr. Thomas.

Excellent. Smart, patient & attentive
He’s a great doctor. My health has improved tremendously instead of the direction. I was heading when I first arrived at his office 10 years ago. He is always attentive to me and what I am saying. He listens patiently, to my questions. my thoughts, and my opinions. Great Doctor, and a beautiful human being. God Bless you, Dr Thomas!

Pushes surgical options
I feel like he had already made up his mind that I should have a cardiac implant before he met me.He explained the procedure for a coil but said that the fact I was under stress at work had nothing to do with my rapid heart beat. “ we are all under stress” was his answer.

Fabulous, explains diagnoses well. Great surgeon.
Dr. Thomas makes you feel very comfortable and secure in what he's doing. He's down-to-earth, very focused so you don't waste time. He explains the recommended treatments well and is very honest about the risks and the things we don't know about the causes of illness. The only negative is he's so well regarded he is very busy. But his nurse assistant is efficient and helpful. The whole operation is A+.
