Still waiting for the referral for CT Scan, Dr. John stated that Radiology Associates would contact me with an appointment, it’s been 1 week no contact. I called 878-8714 reached a call center, I asked about the CT Scan status, the representative, started reading my chart and said no new scan was ordered, and than actually argued with me about the Dr. writing the test. Need to reach the Dr. or attending nurse to actually find out what treatment process to follow.

Dr. Thabes has always been the greatest help with my pulmonary issues, with medications and CPAP machine instructions. Allows me to breathe without the use of oxygen. THanks!

I WOULD VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR. THABES. I WAS A NEW PATIENT TO THE PRACTICE - REFERRED BY MY ALLERGIST - AND DR. THABES SAW ME IMMEDIATELY. HE IS VERY THOROUGH AND LISTENS TO WHAT YOU SAY. HE DOES NOT ASSUME ANYTHING OR RELY ON OTHER DRS NOTES. HE STARTS WITH A CLEAN SLATE AND WORKS FROM THERE. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH HIS KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE. HE HAS A VERY GENTLE AND COMPASSIONATE ATTITUDE AND BESIDE MANNER. EXCELLENT CHOICE!!
