Dr. Thomas was my and my sisters doctor until we were 18. He performed the scoliosis check before it was the fashion, warm and compassionate knowledgable doctor, still looking for an adult doctor that is as good. If you’re lucky enough to have a child this is the doctor to entrust their medical health in.

Doctor Thomas was mine and my sisters doctor until I was 18 and he was the absolute best! He was so kind and when we were little he always made us feel better if we had to get shots or something. I went to him more frequently because I had a growth hormone deficiency. He took very good care of me and answered all of my moms questions and came up with a plan of action to help my deficiency. I always enjoyed going to his office. He is extremely friendly and caring and he is very knowledgeable about what he practices! If he is still practicing and I have the correct insurance to be able to bring my kids here I will!

Dr Thomas is by far the best doctor my daughter has ever seen. He is beyond thorough, kind, informative, knowledgeable and funny. As a nurse myself I deal with doctors on a daily basis. I could only wish they were all like Dr Thomas. I highly recommend him!!!!

Dr Thomas was my pediatrician and now my two children. He is a wonderful, kind, and intelligent doctor. The other doctor in his practice is horrible however i only see dr Thomas most of the time. Wish he brought in a better partner but dr. Thomas is such a wonderful doctor he almost makes up for it.

Dr.Joseph Thomas has been my family pediatrician for over 20 years. He is a very knowledgeable and caring doctor. He treats the children so kindly and answers all the concerns we parents have with utmost patience and simple language. He thoroughly diagnoses the condition and only then makes any reccommendation for medication. Post visit care is very good. His office staff is very prompt and thorough in their follow up as well. Always available to take your call as well. Thanks to Dr. T and his team.
