I am sick to my stomach reading the posts about this nutcase. Clearly he gets off on watching the poor people referred to him squirm. The power struggle and subsequent suffering he inflicts is shocking. It seemed like a nightmare when I saw him and it was an experience that took a long time to get over. Reading these post bring brought the experience as if it happened yesterday. This man should not be a doctor and clearly does not enjoy his job. He needs to be referred to a real doctor himself to deal with his personality disorder.

Tim diagnosed and cut my son's upper lip tie, without him we couldn't breastfeed. So many people missed the tie. His appointment was brief but he got straight to the point and fixed the problem

Rush, Rush, Rush.
Does this guys care? Who knows, you don't have time to blink. Time is of the essence it seems and more important than patients. I'm not going back as I don't trust his judgement - seems very quick to make a diagnosis without any great examination - just wants to get you out and another patient in. If he bulked billed I could almost understand but he doesn't.

I used Dr Watson for nearly 20 years. He has changed over the time. He is still caring however you are very aware that he is in a hurry. I think he is now vey experienced in general medicine and can quickly pinpoint problems and cuts to the chase. He is highly intelligent and his mind moves at a rapid pace. Staff are the bigger problem with their rude, aloof attitude!

Dr. Tim is the very best. He was my doctor since 2000. He was great with my kids with cheer. He was Great and quick to pinpoint the problem. He is a righteous, honest and very caring. He will stand up for you if you had an injury at work place. Since I left ACT I am still trying to find good GP like him here in QLD. That's why I am reading this site right now. When I couldn't work because of my illness, he used to bulk bill for me. I thought that was very kind of him. Maybe running a medical center costs a lot in the location he is in. He is worth the wait and money. You have to ask yourself why all those people wait in line to see him. Because they know that he is great. Thankyou Tim!

Dr Watson sees too many patients in a day and doesn't spend enough time with you. You have to wait days for an appointment to see him and wait in the waiting room for over an hour, every time. He's a nice man, but his examinations are quite cursory. He has never taken my blood pressure or physically touched me during his 'examinations'.

Terrible doctor - more interested in money than people, is the impression I got. Rushes you through his rooms so fast you can barely blink or think - boasts 70 + patients per day. Worst thing was that he completed, quite literally, a 20 second Mental Health Assessment Plan with me, that was required to be completed in no less than 45 minutes to an hour!! He just said, "yep you're depressed, I'll tick this box"...and then "goodbye'! Epic fail, Dr Watson! He almost compromised my ex partner's eyesight, by not providing a referral to an Opthamologist for a serious eye complaint. I had to suggest he write a referral myself, for which he said "oh yes, good idea" and we consequently found out my ex partner needed spectacles to correct a serious anomalie in his sight. Watson is a waste of time if you require quality time to discuss health concerns. If you need a fast appointment for a routine problem, he's great at writing out a quick script and on your way - he's a businessman first, doctor second. Good luck.

Good doctor, doesn't bulk bill (major downfall for pensioners). He does rush however.
