“Very nice experience”

I had to wait half hour to be seen, but it was worth the wait. I had extreme shoulder pain and had seen 1 other physician without relief. I have had pain for 6 months and nothing seemed to be helping, it was just getting worse. Dr. Timmerman diagnosed me with a frozen shoulder, she gave me a cortisone injection and I was better within 10 minutes. She explained that it would take time to regain my motion and helped me to get set up with a good therapist. I have a follow up appointment to see her if I am not improving, but I am so far very happy with my results.
I would highly recommend her.

“Highly experienced doctor”

After complications from 2 Patella Tendon surgeries, I went to Dr Timmerman and she fixed it without any other issues. She saw me quickly, expedited my MRI and scheduled my surgery within several days. The surgery and post operative recovery went smooth. Almost 3 months later, she just told me to go play golf, hike and ride my bike again! Dr Timmerman is a five star doctor!

“Saved my arm! Tennis here I come!”

Dr Laura listened to my concerns, diagnosed my issues and provided immediate solutions. I had been seen by another orthopedist for a year, who not only did not provide relief for my arm, but had horrible bedside manner.
Dr Laura performed surgery on my elbow, which has healed beautifully. She was available at any time after surgery for my calls and answered any questions I continue to have. She also provided excellent recommendations for other doctors I needed. Love Dr. Timmerman and Highly recommend her!

“Awesome surgeon! Dr. Timmerman has repaired my PCL and my left shoulder!”

Dr. Timmerman worked on athletes at UC Berkeley when I was a student athletic trainer back in the late 90's. I saw the work she did on athletes there and when it was time for me to have an orthopedic repair, I knew who to look for right away. I have felt well cared for by Dr. Timmerman and her office staff every step of the way through both of my surgical experiences. Dr. Timmerman and her team understand insurance, workers compensation and great medicine. As a professional firefighter I rely on my physical mobility and strength for everything I do. I truly appreciate the quality of service provided to me by Dr. T and her team!

“Dr. Timmerman is an absolutely amazing orthopedic surgeon.”

I had a badly damaged elbow with multiple tears including ligaments and nerve damage. Dr. Timmerman skillfully put my elbow back together and through the course of several surgeries gave me both motion and strength back to my right arm. I couldn't be more pleased.

“Phenomenal!”

From the moment you walk in the door, the staff is efficient and welcoming. Dr. Timmerman respects your time. She is always prompt with her appointment times. She takes her time with you in the appointment. I never feel rushed. She listens to all my concerns, answers all questions and comes up with a plan I am comfortable with. My surgery was a breeze and the follow up appointment were like the others. I can not say enough wonderful things about her!

“Excellent treatment.”

I came to Dr. Timmerman for the Regenokine treatment. I have some early arthritis and have had cortisone and lubricant injections, but nothing seem to help. I am still quite active and wanted to stay active hiking and doing other sports. I found Regenokine information online and then found out she is the only one in Northern California doing the treatments. I made an appointment and had some test done before I went. I then had the visit with her and she explained everything about the treatment. They drew some blood and started the treatments a couple of days later. I noticed improvement after the first couple of injections. It was a little sore after each injection but that was it, no down time. I have now completed the treatment and back hiking. My knee feels the best it has in years. I don't know how long it will last but was told 2-4 years. Anyway for me it was worth it. I had to pay cash, but for me it was definitely worth it.
