Not sure what to say?

Dr. Thometz was the definition of a great man. He delivered me in 1986 and saw me until he retired I believe. I have yet to find another doctor like him. He truly loved what he did, which was healing and helping. I have missed him since he retired and I'm so saddened by his passing. I can still remember my booster in the butt and when he took the stitches out of my cheek when I was 4. My deepest sympathies.

Dr. Thometz was always very kind and I am thankful to have had a doctor where you could call and get the same person on a regular basis and not be put on hold as is customary today! He was always able to squeeze us in when we were sick, "immediate care" centers weren't necessary when you had someone like him as your doctor. He was a blessing to many.

He was the best doctor hands down! Thank you, Dr. Thometz for all the hard dedicated works of love you gave to your patients. You're one in a million!! There will never be another like you.

I am so heartbroken to find out that my precious family doctor since I was 12 years old has indeed passed away.
Dr. Thometz was a REAL doctor, he always answered his own phone,was the kindest most gentle man I have ever known.
When we were kids we didn't have a lot of money and Dr. Thometz barely charged us. Whenever I had another baby, I always felt nervous and afraid until Dr. Thometz walked into the room, then I felt almost as if God Himself had shown up. He delivered 11 of my 12...

So Sorry to hear of his passing. I have many memories of going to his office when it was above the restaurant and the other office when it moved there. He delivered all 12 of my mother's daughters and I believe up
to her 6th child's children. He was a great man and terrific Doctor. Very fond memories...Carrie Iafoski

Dear Thometz family, I am so very sorry for your loss. I too have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Thometz. I have so many fond memories of him. He delivered me and I believe 11 out of 12 of my siblings. He delivered my 2 children as well. He was very kind and compassionate and truly cared for his patients. We will never find another doctor like him. God Bless you!

I have many fond memories of Dr. Thometz as he is the doctor that delivered me when I was born. When I left home at a very early age, I could not afford doctors visits, Dr. Thometz told me he would treat me for free as long as I stayed in school. He wasn't your average doctor, he really was used by God to help people that could not afford treatment. I will never forget his kindness. He will be missed!My prayers are with all your family.

Just found out about your fathers passing. He will always be remembered for his genuine kindness and concern for his patients. He delievered me and my oldest child. He had been our familys doctor for very many years, until he retired. He was very rare as far as docors go. He really had a passion and concern for his patients and several times he even made house calls to my great grandmother and my crippled uncle. His fees were so low, you often wondered how he even made any money at all. I...

We are very sorry to hear of your father's passing, Anne. Love to your family from all of us~ Dan, Jeanine and children
