Dr. Thies received a master of philosophy from Temple University. He has an interest in preventive care and wellness and is a lead physician for the Primary Care Quality Initiatives. Care Philosophy: "One of the most import parts of being a doctor is communicating with patients about their symptoms, concerns, and treatment. I use clear language and I am happy to help patients better understand their health. I also like to focus on preventative health care and enjoy working with patients to custom design ways to lower their risks for illness."
