I have been a patient of Dr. Thoma since 2013. Prior to finding him I had seen more than 100 doctors who didn’t have the time of day to help me. Dr. Thoma was the only one who took the time to do the research and proper testing to discover my diagnosis and create a treatment plan, 6 years later he is still just as determined to treating me. You will never find a more dedicated Care Team,Emily Walker is by far the most caring, knowledgeable, understanding, compassionate CRNP you will ever find

I have been using Dr. Toma about 2 years. He will do everything within his power to make you better. He has a great bedside manner. He prescribes all medicines that I need to help with my pain and the blocks do help with your pain. I recommend Dr.Toma and his whole staff to all my friends

During first appt., Dr. Thoma LISTENED to me to get a clear understanding of my condition. Very reassuring and compassionate during procedures. Dr. Thoma and Cahaba Pain are continually trying to find solutions for my pain relief aside from just medicating. Office staff is friendly and polite as well as professional.

Doesn't ask about your history tell you the first visit that medicine will be turned down. Don't understand the disease. First thing said is will take you off your med. Will not see dr anymore unless you have a procedure which they push highly. See nurse practitioner for only 5 to 10 minutes just to tell you dr said to turn you down on pain meds even if you are in considerable pain and med is not even holding. Just keep saying he wants you cut down.

If you have fibromyalgia or any kind of pain other than spine disorders, don’t go to this clinic. They will take you off of your meds and leave you to suffer with nothing in its place. They could care less about the human equation! SMH

Dr. Thoma and staff are very proficient, cordial, and seeks to please/accommodate patients. During my tenure at Cahaba Pain I believe my medical needs and concerns have been addressed very well. I look forward to my visits but would like to see Dr. Thoma more. I love my practitioner but feel the need to see Dr. Thoma more. I appreciate the email reminders and the ability to view my health reports by email. The technology here is very helpful to “Me”. Thank you ?? 3-21-18 Barbara A. Allen, Ed.D.
