I have been a patient of Dr. Thomas Pitts for over 20 years and have found him to be very knowledgeable, kind and extremely patient. I have never felt like I couldn't ask a question or that I was taking up too much of his time with my appointments. Whenever, I have any questions or concerns, I know that I can call the office and I am guaranteed to receive a returned call within 24 hours. I have several friends who are also patients of Dr. Pitts and they too are very satisfied with him as well. If you are a diabetic I highly recommend Dr. Thomas Pitts as your physician.

I want to like my experience with doctor Pitts, but he wanted me to be the doctor. He never explains my test results and I can't explain them myself! His office is a mess and it is not well run. Although the people all seem nice enough, they never do what they promise because no one is in charge

An excellent physician who is exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, with great bedside manner and who is very thorough and a wonderful listener. His competence is superior and he is most accessible and has a demeanor reminiscent of old school physicians.
