I searched for a provider that would perform a hernia repair without plastic mesh. U First Health was among the first and highest rated providers found. After extensively reviewing the website, I decided to go ahead and have my surgery appointment. The opening phone and email communication was professional and full of needed information. At my appointment, Dr Tomas and his staff were very welcoming and reassuring. My surgery went very well and my pain level the next 7-10 days was low. I would highly recommend anyone contemplating regular hernia surgery to give U First Health a call today!

In 2017 a had hernia repair with no mesh. And in 2019 a had and inflammation in one of the nerves it was not related to the surgery. And dr. Thomas took care of me gave me anti inflammatory and didn't charge me. For it. Now is 2026 and I haven't have any problems. 100%

It has been a great experience so far. We heard about Dr. Tomas yesterday and we drove down today for our appointment. They were very fast and friendly. They have explained every in great detail. We have never been treated so well.

I was initially very nervous about having surgery, but Dr. Tomas and his staff immediately put me at ease. They explained everything thoroughly, treated me with genuine care, and provided an outstanding experience from start to finish. After extensive research, I knew I did not want mesh, and that search led me to Dr. Tomas. Following a phone consultation, I flew to Florida a few months later for the procedure, and it turned out to be the best decision I could have made. Applying ice and following the doctor's protocol, I experienced minimal to no pain and was out sightseeing and enjoying the beautiful December weather just two days afterward. Dr. Tomas is truly the most experienced no‑mesh surgeon in the country, and his skill and attentiveness exceeded every expectation. It's been almost four years now and I still talk about Dr. Tomas and recommend his services!!

From start to finish, our experience with U First Health was truly exceptional. My husband recently underwent hernia repair surgery, and every step of the process exceeded our expectations. From the very first appointment, the staff was welcoming, professional, and attentive. They took the time to answer all of our questions thoroughly, helping us feel informed and at ease. Dr. Tomas was especially outstanding--he was confident, reassuring, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. His expertise and calm demeanor gave us a great sense of trust and comfort throughout the entire process. On the day of the surgery, everything was handled smoothly and efficiently. The communication was clear, and we knew exactly what to expect. Post-operative care was just as impressive. The follow-up and recovery guidance were very detailed, ensuring my husband's healing process went as comfortably as possible. We are incredibly grateful for the outstanding care and kindness shown by everyone at U First Health. It's rare to find a healthcare experience that feels this supportive and personal. We highly recommend them to anyone in need of hernia repair, especially if you're looking to go with a more nature approach.

I was at 210 lbs. January 2025 and had suffered with an umbilical hernia over 30 years and diastasis recti (separation of abdominal muscles) for about the same length of time. I had a referral from a friend that had Dr. Tomas provide the no mess procedure and had an incredible experience, and decided to go have a chat with him in July. I was told per my personal doctor my ideal weight for my build and height is 165. I thought she was crazy and told myself if I could get to 180 lbs I would be good. I began to lose weight by changing my diet, stopped overeating as we oft do and exercise everyday. The weight began to drop and by July when I met with Dr. Tomas I weighed 195. I had never gone through a process of losing weight and did not know what to expect but decided after my visit with him I set a goal weight of 175 prior to surgery because I wanted to get rid of the diastasis recti as well. (I was at 174 day of surgery). Dr. Tomas said he could stitch it partially while he was doing the NO MESS but could not get it all. however because of my weight loss he was able to accomplish more than he expected, but still had a separation. I am posting today to let you know that after per your orders of taking two months off post surgery and healing. Then resuming my exercise routine of bike riding, walking and light exercise that just two weeks ago I was on my back roller stretching out and looked at my stomach and what you were not able to get stitched up has completely healed per my commitment to eating healthy and continued investment to my health. I with you accomplished my goals. Thank you so much, great team work!

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!

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.
