Thomas LYONS MD
Obstetrics & Gynecology - Georgia Atlanta

I have had endometriosis for the last five years. I had two previous surgeries in my hometown of which both turned out to be unsuccessful. I continued to hurt and going out of State was the last thing I wanted to consider. I live in Alabama and since Dr. Lyons was in Georgia that was a big decison for me to make. I am so very thankful and blessed that I made the right decision and allowed Dr. Lyons to perform my surgery.
I found Dr. Lyons on the internet and it has been several weeks since my surgery and I am pain free. All of his office staff treated me with kindness and Northside Hospital was like a 5-Star Hotel. I spent one night in the hospital and stayed at the Holiday Inn on Hammond Dr. just minutes away from the hospital. Since I was out of State they gave me a great medical rate. The hotel made me feel like I was at home. Dr. Lyons has a great personality and will give you as much time as you need to talk. I felt better when I woke up from surgery. Dr. Lyons removed my appendix, uterus, and a very large cyst. Dr. Lyons is very OUTSTANDING IN HIS FIELD.

Dr thomas have made advancements in minimally invasive surgery.this surgery is most demanding now a days.i like to see a patient recovering from surgery within a day.dr lyon is awesome and loves his professional which gives him a great respect.

I had surgery with him for endometriosis a couple of years ago and so far haven't been in pain like before or nay problems associated with my endometriosis.

Dr. Lyons is very thorough and very professional, but he also has a great sense of humor. Great surgeon! I had a total laproscopic hysterectomy in May 2009 by Dr. Lyons and in 6 weeks I was back to the things I love to do, even some things I couln't do before my surgery.
All of his staff are nice and professional as well.
Thank you for helping me!!

Dr. Lyons is the best doctor I have ever seen. After seeing eight other specialist I was getting ready to just give up. I tried onemore time to get the medical care I needed. Dr. Lyons took time to listen to what I was saying, took me seriously.
We decided to go in for exploratory surgery, low and behold I had tumors on the inside and outside of my overies. Dr. Lyons was very honest, caring, and very open.
The second surgery I backed out at the last minute all ready to go in with my gown on. The nurse asked if I could stay long enough for the Doctor to talk with me. I did stay as Dr. Lyons walked into the room he sat beside me on the bed and told me that it was important that I have this surgery, the tumors would become cancer at anytime and he was concerned that if I walked out I wouldn't be back.
I did call that same week, the next week I was in surgery at 25 scared.
My point is, Dr. Lyons doesn't treat people like other Doctors, rather he treats eveyone with hope, care, and mostly like a human with a big heart.
I am now 36 living life, loving my son I adopted, and having a memory of one man that touched my life when all the other Doctors told me nothing was wrong. Thank you Dr. Lyons you are not like anyother Doctor you are a man with a big heart.

Wonderful, caring doctor who has a sense of humor along with the technical skills to develop and perform state of the art surgery. Six years ago, I had the outpatient laparoscopic hysterectomy he developed. Back at the gym (on the treadmill and elliptical) a week later. Highly recommended

I initially treated with my primary care physician - not Dr. Lyons! I was told my problem was aging, and that I should exercise my sphincter muscles 10 times daily!!! Several months later, I went to my regular ob/gyn, who basicaly misdiagnosed the problem and sent me to the urologist's office, who I overheard in the hallway say, "This is the third misdiagnosed patient in six months they have sent to me." Six months later, after having had Dr. Lyons recommended to me, he diagnosed the "real" problem and a few weeks later, a laproscopic/hysterectomy was performed. The care I received from Dr. Lyons and his entire staff was comforting and genuine. I was back at work in 2.5 weeks and I'm an older person. He DOES walk on water!!!

Dr. Lyons and his staff are exceptional. I traveled to Atlanta twice to have him perform my surgical procedures. He thoroughly outlined all of the options that were specific to my particular case. He and his staff administered such excellent medical care that I now return annually for my routine well-care visit. They were also very respectful and caring.

He is AWESOME. I am so glad I found him. I traveled to Atlanta to have my laparoscopic surgery by him. He is so caring and really listens to what his female patients are saying. I wish all of my previous surgeries had been done by him, because my recovery was about as long as it took for me to come out of the anesthesia!!

I contacted Dr. Lyons via e mail on New year's eve. He called me the next day and spoke to my husband and I for about 2 hours total. He was very understanding and explained things in great detail. I drove to his office in Atlanta and had my laparoscopic surgery for ovary,remnant,cysts and appendix removed. I went home the next day and have not been in any pain at all. I think more women should understand the type of surgery he offers because it means not getting cut open. he also uses a fluid he puts in the abdominal cavity to help prevent scar tissue formation. He and his team were awesome and everyone at the hospital bragged about his work and his work ethics. He educates other docs on the art of this surgery. I would recommend him to everyone.

Incredible surgeon! I researched for weeks and decided to take a leap of faith and drive 4 hours to Atanta. I had a Laparascopic Supracervical Hysterectomy which Dr. Lyons pioneered. I spent only 7 hours at the outpatient facility. Two days later I am back home with only a bit of soreness. Excellent care. This is the ONLY way to have a hysterectomy. Well worth the extra travel. Dr Lyons is the best!

Dr. Lyons was one of the pioneers of the laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy procedure in the 1980s. He has performed over 1500 of these procedures and is very skilled. In addition, he spends a lot of time with his patients, and is available by phone and email when needed. He is a brilliant surgeon and scientist and a warm and caring human being. I feel lucky to have had him as my surgeon. I had a very successful procedure with no complications.
