Rude, arrogant, made out I had injured myself. More concerned about medico legal matters than reality. He cannot handle someone standing up to him.
If your older or a woman don't bother going to him. Very rude man. Left me in a dangerous position with metalosis. Obviously out of his league.

Avoid this surgeon at all costs! He is one of the most arrogant and pig-headed surgeons I have ever encountered. Despite running two hours late, he only spent five minutes with me and charged a fortune!
In Melbourne, there are countless other highly skilled orthopedic surgeons who would be a much better choice. Save yourself the trouble and seek out one of those instead!

Had a second opinion appointment with Tim
After feeling unsure about my knee plan and feel so much more reassured, clear and confident after Tim’s explanation of my problem, he offered some
Different treatments to help me manage until I am ready to have surgery

Very happy with my care from Tim. 8 years of non surgical advice
And physio, finally made the decision to get a knee replacement with Tim as well. I can’t believe I’m walking without pain. The recovery was tough the first few days but then so worth it . He is caring kind and funny. Thank you Tim and his receptionists Isabella and Jacki, very good team

Cons: always runs late, bedside manner is so so, doesn’t spend much time with you.
Pros: He is the best in the business, do what he tells you to do and you will get good results. I’m 4 years post acl surgery and I have put my knee through the wars and it still holds up. This guy gave me back my footy career and I can’t thank him enough. Absolute legend

Tim cared for our daughters terrible knee injury. He was so kind, sympathetic and couldn’t do enough to help us . The knee reconstruction recovery was tough but went so well , now she is now returning to sports And her knee couldn’t be better.
we are so happy with the results that I wanted to share our appreciation of this doctor. The staff at epworth and the childrens ward were very nice to our daughter. He has helped a couple of members of our family and we are so grateful.
