Worse experience I have ever had with a physician! Waited patiently for over an hour after my appointment time. When he finally came in, he never examined my shoulder for inflammation, range of motion, nothing. He stood across the room and basically told me I had to lose weight and then wanted to prescribe an anti-inflammatory, without looking at my chart to see that I am on an anticoagulant therapy. I wouldn’t see this doctor again even if I broke every bone in my body.

Timothy C. Wilson spent all of 5 minutes (and that's a generous estimate) with me before ordering an MRI. Most of that time was spent writing and the whole visit felt rushed. I was quite disappointed. After that visit, I decided to do some research and learned that Dr. Wallace Huff, Jr had excellent reviews. I switched providers. During the appointment, Dr. Huff was patient and poised. He maintained good eye contact and I felt like he was engaged and present. He reviewed X-rays with me, recommended a course of treatment, and gave me new hope. He suggested a laser treatment and answered all my questions

Dr. Wilson was excellent! He sat down and explained everything to me before my surgery and after my surgery he spoke in detail to my family regarding what he had done. EXCELLENT physician!!!

Dr. Wilson spent less than FIVE MINUTES in my TWO visits combined with me. He has not seen my fractured wrist that he is treating me for, other than on X-ray. He filled 3 days of medication for a break that has been casted for FIVE weeks now. New cast was put on today by staff (and I will say the staff is nice enough). I asked about possible refill of pain med and was told NO....alternate Tylenol and Aleve. When something is broken, it hurts. Why is it ok to hurt? When there’s an answer for that I would really love to talk about it!

My son saw Dr. Wilson for a fracture in his hand. His first broken bone so he was scared but Dr. Wilson made him feel very comfortable right off the bat. He showed us the xrays and explained everything thoroughly. We went back in 6 weeks and my son's hand is perfectly normal!! Would recommend him to friends and family in a heartbeat! Thanks Dr. Wilson!!
