My Video Profile
"My goal is to provide evidence-based medicine that allows my patients to receive the best quality of care. I strive to treat the patient rather than the disease and believe that personal, individualized care is key to favorable outcomes. I believe that communication is essential to patient care, which is why I aim to develop healthy relationships with my patients and their families."

Not many people know this, but Dr. Timme plays the guitar and she danced ballet for nine years.
