Thomas Suard's Online Review Report Card

Dr Suard and his staff are exceptional! I feel confident in their care.

Dr Suard is one of the most caring, supportive and knowledgeable Doctors, that I have been fortunate to have in my Life. He goes " above and beyond" for his patients. I am truly blessed to have him as my doctor.Thank God , I am his patient.

Dr. Suard is the best doctor period.

Dr. Suard is the most thorough, Kind, compassionate Physician. I feel so lucky that he’s my doctor. When many other Doctors in town have turned to concierge medicine, he refused to. He could’ve easily done that because he’s so good.

Anybody remember Dr. Marcus Welby from the early 70s tv show? He had a perfect bedside manner and so does Dr. Suard who has been taking care of me for decades. He listens and CARES and will send you to a good specialist if your problem warrants. I would give him 10 stars, he’s that good.

For over 15 years, Dr. Tom Suard worked tirelessly with me to manage diabetes. The blood sugar numbers, blood pressure and liver and kidney dysfunction were difficult to manage successfully so Tom and I sent my history to UCSF gorvreferral to the Bariatric Surgery Dept. Thanks to Dr. Suard and his amazing staff and a very comprehensive medical report of my unsuccessful battle with Type 2 diabetes and other co-morbidities. UCSF accepted my case within a week of getting the report from Dr. Suard and after several weeks of meetings with my surgeon, Dr. Stanley Roger's, UCSF dietary meetings and a cadre if pre surgery requirements.UCSF scheduled me for testing as well since I volunteered to be a test patient and on April 28, 2016, I received my Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass.Today, I am living 100% in remission from co-morbidities, am off all of my meds and have zero signs in my body of diabetes.The best part is that Dr. Suard is amazed and has seen me go from an A1C of 10.8 to 5.2, blood sugars of 275 plus on medication to 80 without meds.I cannot thank Dr. Suard enough and now my job is to continue to live my bariatric life as a testament to his caring and his efforts to be a doctor that does his utmost to affect medical cures in his patients.

Dr. Suard has been my primary physician for over thirty years. He does not exhibit the stereotype doctor personna of I"m the doctor; you're the patient, shut up and listen.He is sensitive, listens to one's descriptions of symptoms and concerns, is conservative in his treatment and and solutions, yet is aggressive in prescribing treatment when neccessary. When specialists are needed, he sends me to the very best there are. For back surgery he sent me to Dr. Morgase, the best neruosurgeon in Northern California (who now is an administrator); for cardiac issues, he sent me to Dr. Dizmang, arguably the best non-surgerical cardiologist in Northern California whol, alas, retired last month (October 2016); he in turn sent me to a premier cardiac surgeon, Dr Klingman. All top-knotch. I am alive today because of the perspecacity of my primary physician, Dr. Suard and the knowledge and skill of my cardiology team. Dr. Munubens will be my new cardiolgist who happens to also the surgeon who installed my pacemaker. I couldn't ask for better than I've had. Unfortunately, as I write this 9/30/16, Dr. Suard's case load is full and he's not taking patients...but check anyway.

Dr. Suard is a very caring and concerned physician. He listens !!!

First impression. This is my first time shopping around for a doctor which is so exciting. I’ve always been with Kaiser Permanante, so out of network was not an option. I called today to inquire about becoming a new patient and the lady who answered was not warm or welcoming at all. She answered with “dr. ——“ I was not even able to understand her and her tone of voice convayed irritation and negativity . Then I responded with a “Hello! How are you?” She then responded, “I’m good. Thank you.” Then it was complete silence. No, how are you? Thank you for asking? Simply rude and unwelcoming and most awkward moment - so I asked her if she was okay. Again, she responded irritated and said “I saiid, good. thank you.” I was so caught off guard by the coldness of this office I said “well you’re being very sweet” and then hung up because I knew this was not the place for me. Sad - the ratings were good and I heard great things.

Dr. Suard always listens and spends the time to explain things. He truly cares which is hard to find in a doctor.
