Patient Reviews
Oct 29, 2024
Dr. Timko is incredible! He understands the disorders and conditions he treats, and he always knows the latest advancements in psychiatry. He tells you like it is but also explains why it is that way. I have been seeing him for several years, in the office and via telehealth. I have treatment resistant MMD. He is methodical when starting new meds or removing meds, but is also willing to think outside the box and try meds off label. He is available to his patients and will always advocate for their best interest. (His office team is also incredible! They are friendly, knowledgeable, and will advocate for Dr. Timko’s patients themselves.)
