Patient Reviews
Mar 16, 2022
Lost vision in one eye due to glaucoma related stroke. Dr. Thomas has been my physician through the continuing process of doing what can be done with eye injections. He is patient and kind, takes times to explain and answer questions about his procedures. Explains how the treatments are working, and watches for any other problems. Referred me to Dr. Galloway another excellent eye doctor for monitoring of his concerns for unaffected eye. Dr. Thomas is a ten star doctor!
