Care provider seemed very little familiar with my medical history, hence I have been seen her for 3 yrs. when asked about a condition related to one of my medical conditions, she told me I should not be pero es since I dont have it. Then, when discussing testing for thyroid levels, and I mentioned it would be good as my mom and grandmother have it - her response was "oh really." This is something that is in my medical records, but for some reason - she was very disengaged. When I enquirer about an endoscopy and hiatal hernia - she said that it looked like I didnt have it. I stated that I wanted to understand why I had ongoing esophagus spasms when I bend, her response was "that is very common for anyone to get" - I really dont know any one that has this symptoms. Which I mentioned. She then proceeded to say - there can be many reasons for this to happen, but was not able to give me a good reason or piece of mind. This visit, was definitely a slight disappointment. I didnt not feel as I was a priority or that I mattered greatly. This is not been always the case with her - but I feel that it is valuable to share my experience. We all have rough days, and the physician may have had a rough start - but its a patient, it is hard to witness how unfamiliar your physician is with your medical record or history.

great physician, emotionally disconnected and may come accross as not friend or not concerned. I have no complains from this doctor.i rather have someone who is not super friendly but takes care of what I need. she's very professional, just no room for small talks I'd suggest giving written instructions when prescribing drugs and how and when to take them.last visit I was so sleep deprived..thought I remember the instructions and did not. instructions.on the medicine bottles where not exactly what she explained to me. so I was confused what to take when and why

I was seen by a medical student first who did a very thorough and efficient exam. She was awesome and her bedside manner was terrific. When Dr. Thomas came in, she did an exam as well and let the medical student summarize recommendations. Dr. Thomas is clearly a great teacher and made me feel very well cared for. I will continue to go back to her and this clinic because of the treatment I receive!

Dr. Thomas is great. I had some concerns about some test results and her response was quick. The following week I had a mammogram. She sent me a message in my chart within two hours of the mammogram that is was normal. This was a big deal to me because an immediate family member has stage 4 breast cancer. I think I will always have stress waiting for test results. Thank you Dr. Thomas for your concern and prompt responses.

Every doctor needs to remember to greet the patient, to make eye contact and to shake hands, to create relationship, even if it is only brief and "thin". Healthcare depends on relationships. The simple question, "How are you?" is powerful.

Dr Thomas was disdainful and dismissive and condescending. she was totally uninterested in my welfare and just wanted to get visit done as quickly as possible. she is first person I have seen at Redstone in any capacity who has not been first rate. she reflects very badly on Redstone and is one of the coldest and most unconcerned health care providers I have had ever

I liked Dr. Kelly. She does not know me so I did not have the "warm and fuzzy" experience of some of the doctors at the U that I have known for a while. She is very matter of fact and thorough which I appreciate but I am going to guess, not for everyone. I would recommend her but I do not know her well enough to rave.

Again, poor bedside manner. Also disturbing was the look of nearly all staff members in the U of U hospital. They were slow moving, and looked like they haven't slept in a week.
UofU Patient
January 26, 2018
Dr. Kelly Thomas was great. I was with Dr. O'Dell and loved him. I was concerned about finding a primary care doctor after he left, and I requested Dr. Kelly Thomas become my primary.
UofU Patient
January 05, 2018
I was very disappointed with my experience with Dr. Thomas. When the scheduling associate told me that she was an Osteopath and would be treating me from a holistic perspective, I was very pleased as I had previously gone through a very complex and demanding experience that challenged my health from all angles, and so I was looking forward to a provider that would help me to integrate that. Dr. Thomas was very brusque and showed almost no interest in my experience, only asking follow up questions on information that was already covered in the PA's review of my health history. I understand it was the holidays, but I really felt like a burden on her time. Further, in clarifying some very sensitive and upsetting test results to me later over the phone - her tone was pretty dismissive. While Dr. Thomas was certainly effective and proficient in terms of her medical evaluations, I did not feel cared for.
UofU Patient
December 24, 2017
This was the 4th time I've seen Dr Thomas this year, she never seems to remember who I am or my medical history.
UofU Patient
December 09, 2017

UofU Patient
November 15, 2017
Overall positive experience. Had tremendous anxiety visiting the Dr. which is new for me and Dr. did not seem as friendly as past Primary Dr.s I have had. She is straight forward and to the point which is great, however some issues did not seem to be addressed as I had hoped.
UofU Patient
November 14, 2017
I was worried when I found that Dr. Thomas was moving her practice to Park City. She is very good at following through and answering questions (repeatedly, in my case). I take my husband with me because I don't remember what to ask or the answers and she just takes it in stride. She never keeps us waiting and when she says she will check on something, she does it. She is great at answering questions on My Chart also, even when her staff has already answered. I would recommend her to anyone.

It wasn't a bad experience, per se, it was just rather blah. She wasn't very cheery and very matter of fact. Maybe caught her on a bad day? Not sure due to the fact it was my first visit. All other staff seemed friendly and upbeat!

Dr. Thomas came across as very professional and knowledgeable. I would have liked a little more 'reflective listening' and 'accurate communication of empathy', but I see those characteristics as partly due to temperament (inborn personality) and they do require more time. Overall I was pleased.

Generally speaking I have not liked any of the doctors I have had so I am always looking. I stuck with Dr. Odell as long as I did because I was to dam tired of shopping around. Truthfully though some of my experiences with him have been a joke. I had hoped that Dr. Kelly Thomas would be my answer but I can already tell she is not. I would not recommend Dr. Odell or Dr. Thomas to anyone.

I do not want to see this care provider again.
UofU Patient

I 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.

The 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.

I 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.

Dr. 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.

I 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.

Physician 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!

When 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.

She 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.

Dr. 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, 2015
dr 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, 2015
Since 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?

I 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.

Dr. 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, 2014
Sometimes 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.

January 21, 2014
I did not feel like I had to hurry to see and talk to the Dr. She answered all my questions
UofU Patient
January 02, 2014
I 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, 2013
The 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.

August 21, 2013
Our 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, 2013
Dr. Thomas has no personality and she wasnt thourough
UofU Patient

I 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, 2012
I 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, 2012
She 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, 2012
I 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!!!

Really 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. :)
