I found Dr Tomas and U First Health clinic after discovering I had a large hernia in my upper abdomen, and immediatelydoing as much research as possible on hernia repairs. I had to put it off for several months due to logistical circumstances but finally went last week and got it done. I had heard so many nightmare stories about the mesh repairs that I was unwavering in my decision to utilize this Desarda technique at Dr Tomas' clinic. From the first phone call to current day it has been as perfect an experience as one could hope for.BJ was my coordinator at U First Health, did a great job and is super compassionate yet very professional during the scheduling process. The ladies at the clinic are super competent but also very warm and personable, literally made us feel like we were at home and in very good hands.Dr Tomas is without question sincerely dedicated to the success and solid recovery of each patient. I have never met a doctor, let alone surgeon, who is as sincere in each interaction as he has been. My follow-up telemed call was no different. He is truly a gem in the medical industry. So glad God guided me to U First Health. I will send every person I meet with hernia surgery needs to Dr Tomas without hesitation.Thank you so much U First Health team!Justin Booher, Cuba, MO

I am now 74 in March 2026. Last May 2025 you did inguinal hernia surgery on my left side and today I don’t feel anything I mean there’s no twins or once a week or once a month it’s like before I had a hernia it’s just there’s no there’s no pain. There’s nothing I mean it’s completely as though I never had a hernia. I never had surgery, which is amazing because on the right side I had inguinal hernia surgery from Dr. blank. Also here in Fort Myers I’m blessed to live in Fort Myers, which is where Dr. Thomas office is but anyway I had mesh surgery in June 2020 and after I don’t know after five months, I started having pain and. Almost 6 years later 5 1/2 years later I still have pain. The pain is not as great but what a difference is so I’m not gonna reveal here how much I paid but I’ll tell you. It was the best money I’ve ever spent in my life and I wish I had had it done on both sides by Dr. Thomas I even knew about the mesh Free when I had the first one done, but I had to go to the traditional words I had to do it the right way and it was not the right way. I am the left side is I have never had any problems no pain just to show you how bad the pain on the right side was after two or three years I bought a PEMF machine for around $20,000 which has helped and I’ve used that machine on other sore joints on my legs. I got leg cramps at night. It helps with that, but that is a lot of money to spend it. I think it did help. I still get pain, but the pain is less on the right side no pain. Nothing on the left side. I don’t regret buying the PEMF machine the rest of the reason I bought it was because of the pain on my right side from the renal surgery on my right side the mesh surgery, but I’ve used it for other my sore shoulder leg cramps but this is not a review for the PEMPEMF machine that’s why I bought it because of the pain I was that desperate because of the pain on the right side, but I will tell you that money I spent I would know knowing what I know now about the mesh surgery. I would pay double if I’ve had that surgery first and then needed in Green hernia on the other side, I would pay twice what I paid for the first one if it was Dr. Thomas doing it that’s I’m sorry that’s how I feel and Dr I’ve been meaning to stop by your office in person but I wanted to wait till after six months before I said anything cause that’s when the pain on my other one started and I’m saying it with confidence man I love this this doctor. I’m sorry I know I’m getting exaggerated. No, I’m not getting paid. He doesn’t even know I’m doing this. I don’t know how to reveal myself. I don’t know if I’m allowed to say my name or not or maybe it is up above I don’t know but Dr. Thomas this is James McCullough. I live here in Fort Myers there. I have revealed myself and thank you very much. I hope a lot of patience. Read this and don’t make the mistake. I made please don’t do that.

Thank You ! I just had hernia surgery 3 day ago at UFirstHealth and it was a fantastic experience. Very minimal pain and healing very quickly. Martha the anesthesiologist really was fantastic. David thanks for helping me get dressed after surgery. The front desk staff was also fantastic…I was completely pain free until the next day and the pain medication ease all the pain. I highly recommend UFirstHeath ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ( the z pack helped )

I had an umbilical hernia and called multiple Doctors and went to multiple consultations. When I called U First they gave me direct answers and pricing and made the decision to use them very easy. I came in from out of town and they were very accommodating and organized and even had a caregiver they referred to take care of me after the procedure. The whole team was great and the whole process was very efficient. I would recommend them to anyone.

I lived with a hernia for years because I was scared to get it fixed. I convinced myself I could manage it, but over the last year it kept getting worse. The pain finally made it clear I couldn’t avoid surgery anymore. I tried using a hernia belt, but that was just a temporary crutch.So I went online and researched every surgeon I could find in Florida. I read reviews, compared credentials, and did my due diligence. Eventually I found Dr. Tomas, and something about him just felt right. I had a gut feeling he was the one I could trust.I was extremely nervous, but the moment I stepped through the door, the anxiety lifted. From the front desk staff to the nurses, the anesthesiologist, and finally Dr. Tomas himself — everyone gave me a sense of calm and confidence. I knew I was in the right place.The surgery went smoothly, the recovery went well, and I’m genuinely grateful I found this doctor. He’s exceptional at what he does. I would highly recommend Dr. Tomas to anyone who needs hernia surgery.

I'm 67 and never written a review. I felt that I needed to share my experience.Dr Tomas was wonderful from the very first time I saw him. He explained every detail of his procedure in layman's terms.I had everything set up for 1 hernia with another doctor but I thought I would get a second opinion. I'm very glad I did! He pointed out that I had 3 hernias, which the other doctors did not tell me about. I had 2 worked on by Dr. Tomas and can't tell you how happy I am with his work! I would highly recommend him to anyone with a hernia! And it's mesh free!Thank you Dr. Tomas!Dan H.
