In patients' words

"He was very dismissive and rude, wouldn't prescribe anything for pain, says he didn't think I tore anything, advised against an MRI... I would avoid this clinic/doctor as they seem to be extremely out of touch with their patients."

— Birdeye / LocalityBiz user review regarding Dr. Thomas

"If I could give doctor Peter Van Patten a 0 star, I would... my knee has never been the same and now I am faced with a knee replacement surgery as a result of someone who didn't even do an MRI on my knee."

— WebMD/Vitals user review regarding Dr. Vanpatten
