I was more than happy with the care of Dr. Thomas Rivers. He showed a lot of empathy for me and asked if I had any questions or concerns as he walked me through the tests that I had taken. I will highly recommend him to my family and friend If and when anyone needs a physician In his department. So glad that I chose him.
