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.

I work in the medical field and he is the most compassionate,best clinician, listens,gives long term solutions based on lifestyle, honest......not replaceable

Most comfortable and caring doctor I've ever seen.
Takes his time, listens well, great sense of humor and geniune sense of caring. His approach is most appreciated in our current medical climate of brief and only surface treatment .

Compassionate
Dr. Thrasher has got to be the best Primary Care Doctor around. He takes his time during appointments and never rushes thru them. He is very caring and thorough. When I had Covid-19 in January, he called to check up on me to see how I was doing and spent over half an hour talking to me. I'm sure he was checking to see how my shortness of breath was and showed such a caring demeanor. I will never forget that call and just to know my Doctor was looking after my welfare made me feel better. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs and wants a Dr who will respond to your medical needs. He's number 1 in my book.

I used to love Dr Thtasher! Until I started having a very serious issue. Test results not read correctly by another doctor in the group. Then you can’t get in to see your doctor. I am now in what they call a “thyroid storm “ and it is a very scary and painful problem I have! They are to busy to care anymore. This problem could of been avoided if only someone would of listened to me the patient! Very sad because now I am one sick lady!

I call in today, as I was requested by Dr Thrasher to schedule a followup appointment. I was informed by a female scheduler, that he had no open appointments for August or September. And she did not have his October schedule yet, so was unable to schedule an appointment. Very frustrating and has been a normal pattern over the past few years I have been seeing him.
