Dr Thomas is the kindest most attentive psychiatrist I have ever had. I have worked with him for the past five years. His ECT staff at smh are also wonderful and make the experience of getting ECT much more comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Thomas is an exceptional provider of ECT treatments. The doctor and his staff, at Sarasota Memorial, are empathetic and accomodative. I highly recommend these transformational procedures. He is an expert in his field, supportive, and caring. Hopefully, I will not require any additional sessions, due to my enhanced quality of life, but if I do I wouldn't hesitate to use Dr. Matthew Thomas again. I am grateful for his team's assistance in treating my health issues.

I visited Dr. Thomas for ECT treatments at Sarasota Memorial. These sessions transformed my life. Dr. Thomas and his team are empathetic and and accomodative. Dr. Thomas is through, possesses great bedside manner, and makes you feel comfortable every time. I had over 20 treatments with Dr. Thomas and the staff at Sarasota. Hopefully, I will not need any additional procedures due to my improved health, but if I do I'll use Dr. Thomas again without hesitation.

Dr Thomas is one of the few psychiatrists in my region that performs ECT. He is a caring & compassionate mental health doctor with a calm, quiet, soothing demeanor and the patience of Job. He has treated my Major Depressive Disorder for the past 5 years. I drive two hours roundtrip just to see him. I would recommend him to anyone seeking quality mental health care. And especially for anyone seeking ECT, as only a tiny fraction of psychiatrists perform this treatment.

Not sure which way to go with this but he seems like a good doctor but at the same time he seems like a great salesman when it comes to convincing patients to do things his way as opposed to addressing their concerns and making adjustments to treatment based on the patient's wishes and comfort because he's one of the doctors that always " knows better than the patient "
