Background
Ms. Thomas, who grew up in the Beaufort area, joined Coastal Carolina Urology Group in 2017 and transitioned with the practice when it was acquired by Beaufort Memorial in late 2023. Comparing her time in urology to the four-year stint she had as an emergency medicine physician assistant, she especially relishes the ability to follow patients through treatment and the resolution of their health concerns.
No stranger to Beaufort Memorial, Ms. Thomas worked as a general surgery physician assistant with Beaufort Memorial Surgical Specialists prior to her time in the ER.
The Clemson fan enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and young son and recently began learning how to play pickleball.
