My first impressions are that Dr. Bedard-Thomas is intelligent, thoughtful, professional and caring. As examples, she made a point of explaining to me: 1. The application she uses to understand a patient's risk of cholesterol-related heart disease; and 2. The purpose of the blood tests she ordered. Until I have experience interpreting test results, recommending next steps, and/or navigating a health problem with her I think it's premature for me to be answering some of these questions.

Dr Bedard Thomas is the best MD I have ever had. That she is a Family doc but also a psychiatrist is helpful for me because I have Major Depression.
