Meet Dr. Rachel M. Thomas

Hi! I'm Dr. Thomas. I grew up in Abilene, Texas, where I learned the value of close-knit communities and meaningful connections. My journey into medicine began early, inspired by medical mission trips with my father, a physician, where I saw how health care could transform lives.

I earned my undergraduate degree at Baylor University and completed medical school at the University of Texas at Houston. During my third year, I discovered my calling in pediatrics, dedicating my electives to caring for children. I completed my pediatric residency at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Amarillo, Texas, where I refined my skills and deepened my commitment to helping kids thrive.

For me, pediatrics is about more than treating illness - it's about building lasting relationships and being a consistent, caring presence in a child's life. I find joy in watching kids grow and thrive while connecting with their families both in the office and in the community.

As a mother of three, I understand the joys and challenges of parenting. This perspective shapes my compassionate approach and strengthens my dedication to earning the trust of the families I serve. I look forward to caring for children and their families in Granbury!
