My family has been seeing Doc Thomas for 3+ yrs now and I do believe we have found our family physician! He is accurate in diagnosing the problem and quite thorough. I would highly recommend him.

A little over a year ago I needed to see my PCP because I had a severe cold/flu. His office was not open on Friday so I went to TR Family Care on Hooper Ave. and was assigned to Dr. Thomas. As a walk in-patient I expected to wait for some time, but to my surprise, I only waited for 20 minutes before I was escorted to an examination room. Dr. Thomas promptly entered and began to dialog with me concerning my present medical condition. His diagnosis was immediate and a prescription was issued. I was so impressed that I changed my PCP to Dr. Thomas. I have referred 8 family members and friends to Dr. Thomas and they have ALL made Dr. Thomas their PCP. He is genuinely concerned and interested in the health and weel being of his patients.

I waited about 15 min for him, which included time with the nurse before hand. He didn't cut me off when I was talking. Examined me thoroughly and actually made sure I understood what he wanted me to do after.When he ordered blood work, he made sure that I was called with my results even though they were totally normal.I only gave the office decor a 3/5 cause they are in the middle of renovating.
