Patients appreciate
Dr. Rubin Thomas consistently receives exceptional praise for his attentive listening skills and thorough approach to patient care. Patients repeatedly emphasize that he takes time during appointments without rushing, genuinely listens to their concerns, and asks detailed questions to understand their health issues fully. His bedside manner is described as warm, friendly, and compassionate, with many noting he greets patients with a smile and makes them feel truly cared for as individuals, not just medical cases. Patients appreciate his clear communication style, noting he explains medical conditions and treatment plans in understandable terms, often using visual aids when needed. His professionalism and extensive medical knowledge are frequently highlighted, with several patients comparing his expertise to that of specialists. The entire office staff, including nurses and front desk personnel, receive consistent praise for being helpful, courteous, and professional.
Patients also share
While the overwhelming majority of reviews are highly positive, a few areas for improvement emerge. One patient found Dr. Thomas's demeanor too serious, making doctor visits feel intimidating. Another patient mentioned preferring to see his physician assistant instead. A single review noted feeling somewhat rushed during an appointment, though this contrasts sharply with the vast majority of feedback. One patient commented that he speaks quickly, which could be challenging for older patients to follow. Additionally, one review mentioned that prescription refills and results are not always expeditious, though this appears to be an isolated concern.
