Dr. Laura Timmerman is a great orthopedic surgeon who fixed my full ACL tear with great results. From the minute you step into her office and meet her, Dr. Timmerman makes you feel like you are an old friend and will take the best care of you as if you are her family member. She fully explains what is wrong, what needs to be done and what it takes to recover back to the best you can be. Gaye, her PA, is also great and very knowledgeable.

Dr. Timmerman was wonderful at helping me and allowing me to get back to volleyball as soon as possible with still getting me to feeling 95%. When I tore my ACL in Feburary I was in surgery by my spring break in March to play in September for high school volleyball. It has been a year later and I am cleared to no longer play with my brace. I am stronger then ever and cannot thank her enough for every thing.

After being treated else where and being misdiagnosed, I found Dr. Timmerman. She was highly recommended, and I must say she totally exceeded my expectations. She was a great advocate for me, performed my surgery, with great follow-up. She is lovely, great bedside manners, she listens, takes her time, and KNOWS her stuff! Dr. Timmerman and her staff are all incredible. I wouldn't think twice about coming to see her in the future if needed.

the best ever, highly recommended

I've seen Dr Timmerman and Gaye (PA) for multiple injuries( rotator cuff, ACL reconstruction) over the last few years. The treatment including two surgeries were were performed flawlessly. I'm now stronger than ever! Dr. Timmerman and the entire staff are wonderful, from the receptionists to the nurses, the entire staff make you feel at home from the first visit. I cannot recommend this office more!! Thanks for patching me up Dr. T

This is the second surgery I have had with Dr Timmerman.
She did my surgery within 2 weeks and my recovery time was great.
I can go skiing and play golf again. Yeah!!
It is nice to know that I have someone I can go to if I have any injuries.

Thank You so much

The entire office is cheerful, helpful, and ready to help. Options are given and guided to the best results.

When I ruptured my Achilles I started reading about surgery and recovery. I decided on Dr. Timmerman to do the surgery and was really happy I did! She has stayed engaged from before surgery all the way up to being fully recovered. I would recommend Her and Her practice to anyone!

I went to see Dr. Timmerman after seeing another orthopedist to get a proper diagnosis of my shoulder condition. Dr. Timmerman did a thorough exam and immediately identified my shoulder problem as frozen shoulder. She was able to give me a cortisone injection in the right place by using an ultrasound at the appointment. In just a few days my mobility improved and I started physical therapy after 10 days of the injection. I am back to my normal activities and pain free thanks to Dr. Timmerman.

I had a shoulder issue from when I was a baby, I had several diagnosis regarding the injury all of which were incorrect. I came to Dr. Timmerman based on her reviews. She had me do the proper test to get a diagnosis of the injury and completed a procedure.I have since gained almost full mobility back and have been building up my strength again. She was great throughout the entire process and I would def. recommend her.

The whole staff is the best you could ask for!!!

I cannot express my appreciation to to Dr. Timmerman and her entire staff for my repair and post surgery follow-ups.
This is one great surgeon and an amazing staff that treats you with a smile every time you have an office visit.
If you need a surgeon this is the place to go!

I was told that i needed a shoulder replacement in my home town. One of our friends in Redding recommended Dr. Timmerman in Walnut Creek so we made and appt. She told me she could put it back together and she did. It has been 3 1/2 months since the operation and I am doing GREAT! My full range of motion is back and I look forward to doing normal things again.

I can not begin to tell you how awesome
Dr. Timmerman is! Dr Timmerman was very clear on my elbow diagnosis, explained the procedure and my kind of gal "no nonsense".
I am so pleased with the work she did for me I almost wish I had other body repairs needed.
I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone and already have done so.

I had previously seen two other doctors over a period of 6 months to try to alleviate my knee pain. I was within a month of having surgery with the first Dr and decided to get a 2nd opinion. The 2nd Dr. treated me with a steroid shot and sent me home. I was in severe pain and used a cane. A friend recommended Dr. Timmerman. In my first appt. I got my first shot of Orthovisc and literally skipped out! Dr. Timmerman is fabulous and a miracle maker! Thank you!!

Great experience

The MRI was showing one thing bit when she went in and found it to be so much worse. I had heard about her extensive experience with pro athletes and was not disappointed! I'm three months out and have full range of motion and am in the gym now! Incredible

Dr. Timmerman was attentive, explained the process very well and was able put me at ease. Best bedside manner ever! I am very pleased with the outcome of the surgery and almost no scar to be seen!

After crashing my mountain bike this summer my rotator cuff was toast. Weighing my options and researching the options I went with Dr. Timmerman. She did a great job and the shoulder is 100% again. Great job!

Very professional, with great results to my knee.

Within two weeks I was back on my bike

Thank you
