Neurologist William Thomas joins Beebe Medical Group
William A. Thomas Jr., MD, is joining Beebe Medical Group after being a neurologist on Beebe Healthcare’s medical staff for more than 20 years.
During that time, his private practice, Delaware Neurology Associates, was recognized as a valuable resource for local patients in need of comprehensive neurological care. Two physician assistants who were part of that practice, Mary Kate Horner, PA-C, and Kristina Johnson, PA-C, are also joining Thomas in the transition to Beebe Medical Group. They will see patients at Beebe Neurology Lewes, 33672 Bayview Medical Drive. The practice number is 302-645-2437.
Thomas specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of complex neurological disorders including dementia, migraines, strokes and seizures. Thomas also performs electromyography, a technique used to evaluate and record electrical activity within muscle cells and nerves. This procedure aids in the diagnosis of neurological issues such as carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy and sciatica.
“Beebe is the right choice for my practice as I work to expand services to the community,” said Thomas. “Beebe is very attentive to the needs of the community, and I am committed to providing comprehensive neurological care for the people of Sussex County.”
Thomas earned his medical degree at the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine. Upon graduation, he completed his internship in internal medicine at Griffin Hospital in Connecticut, a Yale University affiliate, and subsequent training in psychiatry at the University of Connecticut Health System. Thomas completed his training in neurology at the Allegheny (formerly Hahnemann) University Hospital in Philadelphia.
He is a member of the American Academy of Neurology, the American Association of Electrodiagnostic Medicine, the American Medical Association and the Delaware Medical Society. In his free time, Thomas enjoys playing golf and spending quality time with his family. His wife, Michele D. Thomas, MD, FACS, FASCRS, is a colorectal surgeon who also practices at Beebe. Together, they have three children: William, Grant and Jacqueline.
