As a nephrologist, Dr. Thomas diagnoses and treats kidney-related conditions, such as chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, high blood pressure, electrolyte imbalances and kidney failure.

Q: How do you like to spend your time when not seeing patients?

A: My wife, daughters and I enjoy being active outside, hiking and biking. I’m a regular CrossFit participant and I’ve completed the Half Ironman six times. I also enjoy reading on whatever topic piques my interest.

“It’s important to me that my patients fully understand their medical situation, so they can make better medical and lifestyle choices.”

Health tip:

Protect Your Body’s Filters. Best practices for healthy kidneys include staying hydrated, managing blood pressure and blood sugar, staying active with regular exercise and getting regular check-ups with your provider.

If you believe Dr. Thomas may be right for you, talk with your primary care provider about a referral.
