Dr. Kevin Thomas is a board certified general surgeon with United Regional Physician Group. Dr. Thomas completed his undergraduate education at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, TX, earning a bachelor’s degree in chemistry. He attended medical school at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas, TX, and completed his internship and residency at Saint Paul Hospital in Dallas, TX. A Wichita Falls native, Dr. Thomas comes from a multigenerational family of physicians and is the third of four generations to practice medicine. From an early age, he admired his grandfather’s dedication to caring for others in the community, an influence that played a significant role in his decision to pursue medicine. Knowing by age 12 that he wanted to become a physician, he pursued medicine with a clear sense of purpose and a desire to help people in meaningful, tangible ways.
Dr. Thomas was drawn to surgery for the opportunity to care for patients from start to finish and to see the direct impact of his work. He values the ability to relieve suffering and restore health, finding deep fulfillment in helping patients regain function and quality of life after surgery. With experience that spans the evolution of surgical care, he now focuses on minimally invasive techniques and remains inspired by ongoing advances in medical technology and the complexity of the human body. His approach emphasizes careful listening, individualized care, and strong physician/patient relationships built on trust, empathy, and God. Outside of medicine, Dr. Thomas enjoys spending time outdoors with his family, especially his grandchildren. He is actively involved in his church community, where he serves as an elder and teaches Sunday school. He also has a passion for maintaining his land and is an avid car collector, with a special interest in Corvettes kept in show condition. Deeply connected to Wichita Falls, Dr. Thomas values the community’s family centered spirit and is proud to provide advanced, personalized surgical care in the town he calls home.
