UofU Patient August 27, 2016
Dr. Thomas did a great job explaining lab results and discussing my concerns.
UofU Patient August 24, 2016Dr. Thomas is always very clear, and professional. Very nice, and kind.
UofU Patient July 21, 2016Dr. Thomas is friendly and communicates great. Always enjoy my time with her.
UofU Patient July 16, 2016she's helped me lose some weight and still trying
UofU Patient July 15, 2016Dr Thomas always shows care and concern when dealing with my issues. I always leave my appointments feeling well taken care of and heard.
UofU Patient July 03, 2016I chose doctor Thomas because her bio says she is an osteopath and that her professional interests include "dermatological procedures." I thought these aspects of her background would be helpful with a couple of issues I am having with my elbow and shoulder and my skin. She informed me that she hadn't really been keeping up with these specialties, which was a little disappointing, but she did refer me to specialists in these areas, which I appreciate.
UofU Patient June 30, 2016Dr. Thomas really cares. She is really easy to talk to even about the hard stuff. She has always made me feel comfortable. I feel like she really knows my history. I am totally confident in her care. Very kind and doesn't make me feel rushed. I appreciate her.
UofU Patient June 29, 2016Dr. Thomas is great, she is always on time. Always answers all of my questions.
UofU Patient June 27, 2016Dr. Thomas is amazing.... I am very happy with my Doctor I feel like we are a team.
UofU Patient June 21, 2016Both the nurse practitioner and doctor were outstanding.
UofU Patient May 23, 2016Dr. Thomas explained routines and shared some of her relevant experiences
UofU Patient May 20, 2016It was my first visit so I have not made up my mind on any judgement yet.
UofU Patient May 17, 2016Dr. Thomas is incredibly patient oriented. She honestly cares but has no problem telling me where the bear sh....s if she needs to. I'm very lucky to have her as my primary physician.
UofU Patient May 12, 2016Dr. Kelly was great! she was very understanding and made me feel comfortable talking about my body.
UofU Patient May 10, 2016good
UofU Patient March 31, 2016The only issue I had and it wasn't major, was I talked about pain due to a hernia and she told me I would need to talk to the other doctor already handling the case. I felt like she was going to be my primary care doctor.
UofU Patient March 31, 2016she was well informed and helped me make a good decision after given all the information needed on the topic. she answered all of my questions and it seemed like she cared and made sure i had no concerns before leaving.
UofU Patient March 02, 2016I couldn't seem to build any rapport with this provider
UofU Patient February 10, 2016I found Dr. Kelly Thomas to be forthcoming and considerate. She spoke with me like I was intelligent enough to help make decisions about my own care. I enjoyed my visit with and am happy with the outcome.
UofU Patient January 10, 2016Dr. Thomas was very good. I felt very confident with her assessment of what the problem was. She was able to instruct me with follow up information if the pain did not seem to clear up.
UofU Patient December 13, 2015I really appreciated that Dr Kelly Thomas really listened to what I was saying. I am the type of person who likes to make informed decisions for my self and appreciate doctors who take the time to communicate properly. I was also impressed how quickly I was contacted after the appointment. Thank you for being so professional and above all caring and friendly.
UofU Patient December 10, 2015Excellent
UofU Patient November 27, 2015Physician did not include me in decision and didn't take my concern in consideration. I'm already on air of medications and she just out me on two additional pain killers, even after I requested X-ray or MRI of my injury. She demanded and said I must take the meds for 3 days before she would order radiology testing!
UofU Patient November 21, 2015When my doctor released my lab results via MyChart, she also sent me a message to ask how I was feeling. I considered that contact to be above and beyond the type of service I expect from a busy doctor's office. I was very pleased.
UofU Patient October 07, 2015good
UofU Patient August 13, 2015Thank you Dr. Kelly Thomas and Staffs.
UofU Patient August 10, 2015Dr. Thomas is always concerned and LISTENS! She is willing to discuss any questions or issues that I have. I never feel like she is rushing through my appointment.
UofU Patient July 21, 2015Dr Thomas is wonderful!
UofU Patient June 10, 2015Dr. Thomas is great, she always addresses all of my concerns, and asks if anything else needs to be done before exiting the room.
UofU Patient June 10, 2015Dr. Thomas is a great doctor. She spent time with me and explained my options to me as a patient.
UofU Patient May 05, 2015First visit wit her as a primary care provider. I really like her so far though.
UofU Patient May 04, 2015Dr. Thomas is wonderful. She has instilled a confidence in my care that is fantastic. I really appreciate her
UofU Patient April 20, 2015good
UofU Patient March 23, 2015She admittedly forgot to get back to me after the test results. I wrote a note on MyChart and she apologized for not calling. She never mentioned the course of action of medication that she had mentioned when I saw her, so I just assume I should do it on my own. Not super impressed. My regular doctor was unavailable.
UofU Patient March 09, 2015I have been going to Dr. Kelly Thomas for awhile now and have recommended her several times. She is one that I trust with all my needs. She really cares about my questions and is very explanatory. I just Appreciate her very much
UofU Patient March 04, 2015Its always nice that Dr. Thomas has looked at my history before the appointment so we can discuss previous issues as well as any new ones.
UofU Patient March 04, 2015good
UofU Patient March 02, 2015good
UofU Patient March 01, 2015Dr. Kelly Thomas was exceptional as always.
UofU Patient February 26, 2015Dr. Thomas is a very careful and thoughtful doctor. I am glad she is working with me and Ellois Baily APRN. I feel safe under their care.
UofU Patient February 03, 2015Dr. Thomas has been my doctor for years and she knows me and has always been very helpful, understanding and professional every time I've seen her.
UofU Patient January 20, 2015dr Thomas consistently talked over me and interrupted me while I was talking/explaining or asking questions. I felt like she dismissed me and my child's problem as "paranoid mom who sees disease with every sniffle". she didn't believ me when I described his symptoms, or take the time to get a good listen, wouldn't wait for him to calm down some in order to get a better listen. she said there was little to no wheezing but prescribed us breathing treatments anyway which are actually pretty ineffective with babies who might or do have bronchialitis or RSV. I'll never take myself or my children to see Dr. Thomas again. it was an awful visit and I left feeling worse and more unsure than when I came in.
UofU Patient January 13, 2015Since it was my first visit, I am reserving a perfect score. But, it did go very well and I'm optomistic about Dr. Thomas. I did not get any instruction on follow-up appointments. They told me at the time it would depend on my blood test results, but I was notified of the test results and still was not instructed on when I should schedule a follow-up appt. Since I am diabetic I suppose it would be between 3 & 6 months?
UofU Patient December 27, 2014Dr. Kelly Thomas is always wonderful. Takes time to answer all my questions and concerns. Highly recommend.
UofU Patient December 07, 2014Dr. Thomas has been a life-saver to me (emotionally and medically) thru the unexpected loss of my husband (who was also her patient). I trust her 100% and she is always available to me That is so rare these days.
UofU Patient December 07, 2014This was my first time seeing Dr .Thomas. She was thorough, cared about my issue, and I felt she was very competent. Thanks!
UofU Patient December 04, 2014Dr. Kelly Thomas was excellent.
UofU Patient November 25, 2014always a good experience
UofU Patient November 17, 2014Dr. Thomas always knows about the current medical information. It makes me very confident in her.
UofU Patient November 06, 2014Dr. Thomas works very efficiently without a lot of fluff (I enjoy that in a provider) and I feel comfortable with any course of treatment she prescribes.
UofU Patient October 07, 2014i think i had some alergic reactions to meds i was not told about but othier than that i was agian well taken care of
UofU Patient September 15, 2014Just felt rushed through
UofU Patient September 15, 2014As stated earlier was very impressed by the four staff member with whom I had contact.
UofU Patient August 14, 2014good
UofU Patient August 12, 2014Dr. Thomas went our her way to explain my test results and recommended changes in my medication to improve my over all health.
UofU Patient August 04, 2014DR. THOMAS IS ALWAYS THOROUGH WITH QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
UofU Patient July 01, 2014Dr. Thomas continues to provide excellent care to my 99 year old mother. Dr. Thomas has been and continues to be a care giver of the highest quality. You have a winner with her on your staff.
UofU Patient June 25, 2014I think some people will not completely understand Dr. Kelly's point of view as she treats us. This might lead them to misunderstand her motives in not being overly flexible when she prescribes medication or things like that. Dr. Kelly is careful and respects her responsibility to her patients, her employer and all the investments she in order to be the best doctor she can be.
UofU Patient May 06, 2014Dr. Thomas is wonderful. She always shows genuine concern about me and is very practical in making decisions about my care. She's also really personable and enjoyable to be around.
UofU Patient April 19, 2014Sometimes I think she jumps the gun on what I'm going to ask and already has an answer or solution. It ends up that I'm not able to explain what is going on before she dismisses me and moves on.
UofU Patient April 13, 2014Great
UofU Patient April 07, 2014I have like my dr. from the get go with all that has happened to me, she has been super.. that is why I changed my son and my husband over to her as our family doctor.
UofU Patient March 18, 2014Dr. Thomas is great.
UofU Patient January 21, 2014I did not feel like I had to hurry to see and talk to the Dr. She answered all my questions
UofU Patient January 02, 2014I would just say maybe she dumbed things down too far ("degree to which care provider talked with you using words you could understand") to the point that I feel I need to do lots of research myself. She didn't seem to respect the fact that I tried to be engaged in my own healthcare - and when I had concerns she seemed a bit miffed and defensive. However, overall I really liked her and thought she was a nice person.
UofU Patient December 02, 2013The dr seemed like she was rushing us out and keeping her comments short. Didn't seem like she cared too much about the problem with my son's head.
UofU Patient November 21, 2013Thanks Kelly -- as always a great job and lots of help and ideas.
UofU Patient November 18, 2013There was literally no physical assessment of my problem.
UofU Patient October 04, 2013I love how Dr. Thomas takes my opinion into consideration. I never feel rushed or looked down on while asking questions or in her office!
UofU Patient September 25, 2013Good
UofU Patient August 21, 2013Our personal style did not seem to mesh well with the doctor. When we discussed personal choices regarding our son's health, while not outright condemning or judgmental, the doctor was far from engaging or supportive. I left feeling like I would be "pushing" against the care provider, instead of working on a team with her.
UofU Patient August 20, 2013Dr. Thomas has no personality and she wasnt thourough
UofU Patient August 19, 2013Dr. Thomas was patient, spoke clearly, took her time with me, talked through treatment options with me, and offered contact info for follow-up care.
UofU Patient August 15, 2013She is one of the straightforward and quick responsive staff
UofU Patient August 08, 2013Dr. Thomas takes time to listen and involve me in the choice about my health care.
UofU Patient July 15, 2013good
UofU Patient July 10, 2013My Doctor had quite the educational experience in explaining some issues to me as well as printed out some graphs for my understanding of the possible issue I may be experiencing.
UofU Patient June 25, 2013Dr. Thomas helped me with all my medical paperwork for Peace Corps. She was great to work with and I couldn't say thank you enough!
UofU Patient May 15, 2013a lot of concern regarding several problems and follow through
UofU Patient April 22, 2013Dr. Thomas really helped me to feel better about my situation. She never seems to rush me and I really appriciate that. I have already recomended her to others.
UofU Patient April 15, 2013Great experience!
UofU Patient March 26, 2013I am very pleased with Dr. Thomas. She took the time to listen to my problems and I did not get the sense she was rushed which is the case with most providers.
UofU Patient March 06, 2013I will recomend Dr Kelly ThomaS
UofU Patient January 19, 2013Fair.
UofU Patient December 28, 2012Everyone was working very efficiently!
UofU Patient December 26, 2012I would like to have this Doctor as my primary physician.
UofU Patient August 10, 2012She was the best doctor I've had. I got emotional, and she was really nice. Answered all my questions and didn't judge me.
UofU Patient August 03, 2012Dr. Kelly Thomas is easy to talk to and compassionate. I would refer her to anyone!!!
UofU Patient July 11, 2012Dr. Thomas has helped me in the past with an illness I had. I was very grateful to her and the care she gave me.
UofU Patient July 09, 2012I guess I was just expecting and looking for a physician who could take ALL my specialist info and make sense of it.. apply it to me...etc. Seems she doesn't have much interest in doing that (being the hub and the specialists, the spokes).
UofU Patient May 03, 2012I alway have recommended her even before I actually stated seeing her. Ive alway been able to recognize a highly qualified Dr. I recognized she was a highly Qualified Dr. After all I have seen a lot of Dr's where Ive traveled so much an lived in so many places due to my type of work !!!
UofU Patient May 01, 2012She came in the room did not even say hi (this has happened before). Just starts talking a million miles an hour like she is rushed to go somewhere else. Does not actually listen to the patient on what is wrong, just looks at the chart. I do not feel like she cares about me as an individual patient.
UofU Patient April 24, 2012I made an appointment with Dr Thomas, as my regular doctor, was not available. I was very pleased with her care, and would recommend her to others. She was recommended to me by a friend. I REALLY LIKED HER!!!
UofU Patient April 14, 2012She shrugged off my concerns and acted as though I was making up symptoms.
UofU Patient March 31, 2012Really like Dr. Thomas. She has been my primary doctor for about 3 years. I've seen her frequently over the past few months for flu/bronchitis and a sore foot, and most recently the physical examination. She was very thorough in her discussion w/ me regarding the physical examination and addressing the issues w/ my sore foot. I would highly recommend her, in fact I already have. :)
UofU Patient March 23, 2012Dr. Thomas took the time to make me feel cared for. She was absolutely awesome.
UofU Patient March 22, 2012She is always understanding to my needs and treats me with nothing but the best advices one could ask for, She listens to all my concerns,than treats me with the highest quality of care.... She goes the distant's for all of my medical needs.
UofU Patient February 14, 2012I always recommend this provider. Because of the good healthcare she provides
UofU Patient January 24, 2012I love Dr. Thomas. She is a wonderful doctor.
UofU Patient January 07, 2012very good
