Best orthopedic
Dr. Thomas is so fun and gentle with our daughter. He answers all of our questions and makes sure we are well informed on the next steps of the healing process. This has been the 3rd time we have seen him and we will always take all our kids to see him in the future if they ever are injured because he is the best!
Our daughter comes to him for scoliosis and uses a Boston brace. All is going good and hopefully it helps so she doesn't have to have the surgery.
He is a GREAT doctor! The waiting is very long- over an hour and the building is freezing.
The Best Orthopedic Doctor.
