Carolina Endocrine Associates Reviews ( 104 )

  1. They took my condition seriously and did something about it, when others had said it was nothing to worry about. I still may have a tough time ahead of me, but I know they have got my back.

  2. The treatment I received was excellent, great staff, explained what was going on, answered questions, no beating around the bush. I highly recommend this business.

  3. Unfortunately, I must agree with most of the negative comments. The main receptionist is rude and condescending. In the nearly three years I have been going to this clinic I have only visited Dr. Thomas once and that was at the very beginning.

  4. I asked to see a doctor, as I am not stable and have significant hair loss. No, they set me up with a PA anyway. They said the doctor would come through during the visit, but he didn’t. I changed practices and DOCTORS.

  5. The best endocrinologist in the area. Dr. Thomas and staff provide excellent patient care and support. If you need an endocrinologist this is the practice to go to.

  6. Always have a great experience at Carolina Endocrine. They take the time to explain things well and respond to phone calls and portal questions in a timely manner. All the staff is very friendly.

  7. They let the insurance dictate the care even if it goes counter to their initial recommendation. They act like it was to save me money, but that wasn’t the situation at all.

  8. Dr. Thomas is very knowledgeable and helpful. He answered all my questions and explained to me in details regarding my some what complicated case. The staff are very nice too.

  9. Absolutely exceptional service!! This is about the only practice where I don’t have to wait 20-40 min past my appt time – they always take you right on time. Everyone is very friendly here and takes their time with you to explain things and answer all questions!!

  10. I have had three doctors in three years and there is never an explanation on why! The front desk doesn’t care and has become quite rude lately. They also switched lab companies and this one is much worse than the previous company. I finally had enough and switched. I would avoid this practice.

  11. After seeing a doctor for my hypothyroidism for several years that was not very forthcoming or open to my complaints, I found Dr. Thomas and his staff. They are wonderful and listen and work with me to find solutions .

  12. Dr. Thomas is very thorough and his P.A. is very nice. They make sure I understand my tests and results. The waiting times have always been short as well.

  13. Good service from the people behind the desk. I’m not happy with the lab company they partnered with, Quest Diagnostics. The lab person was not very friendly at all. Even charge me $30.00, which is something LabCorp never did. I always …

  14. Went there and was extremely please with the service provided by Eileen Andres PA. When she left, they dropped me like a hot potato. Never heard from them.Was never assigned to another provider. And no one ever contacted me for continuing service. Left me on my own to find another provider.

  15. From scheduling to labs, I had a wonderful experience. Dr. S was thoughtful in his questions, explanation and recommendation. He really helped calm my fear and responded with lab results within 24 hours.

  16. All staff and Dr. Thomas are wonderful. They make you feel like you are the only one. Very patient with all questions. They are there to help you in any way that they can. Love them, all and I have recommended them to others since I have been going there and that is for years.

  17. It is great to be able to deal with my thyroid cancer follow up with one-stop shopping at Carolina Endocrine where I get an ultrasound, labwork and endocrine physician check up all in one place. The lab is friendly and easy to do business with also. Hooray for Carolina Endocrine : )

  18. I was really happy that I got an appt. w/Dr. Stamataros, especially when I saw that he speaks Greek. Unfortunately, upon arrival I was asked to pay upfront around 400, or 200 dollars at least, in order to be seen. I told them I don’t …

  19. I’ve been going to Carolina Endocrine since 2013. Their staff has been always been friendly and helpful. Megha Karmalkar has became my favorite endocrinologist. She takes the time to explain my results, answers all of my questions and offers alternatives. Overall, these group of people offer a lot of support–that goes a long way.

  20. So far, our experience has been great. Aaron is the best. I’ve been bringing my daughter for nearly a year and we always feel comfortable to ask as many questions as we want and from beginning to end it’s a very nice visit.

  21. I was referred to this office by my PCP to confirm I had Hashimotos Thyroiditis. I found the staff and doctor friendly, however, the treatment results were not there! If you have Hashimotos Thyroiditis go see a functional medicine doctor ( …

  22. I’ve been going to this practice for a lot of years. Dr. Thomas has always been very thorough in his care of me. His PA is very thorough also. Would recommend this practice to anyone in need of an endocrinologist.

  23. I have been going to Carolina Endocrine now for about ten years and have always had a very good relationship with the staff and the P.A. It took some time to dial in the dosage but they were very diligent and always gave a good explanation as to my treatment plan.

  62. After being to other endocrinologists (major hospital affiliated ones) and not being happy with the outcome, I found that Carolina Endocrine is by far the best practice around Raleigh. They do all testing on site, which saves a ton of time and money. The staff and Dr. are really nice to deal with, too!
