Dr. Ela Timbadia, MD

Dr. Timbadia is a highly skilled and experienced surgeon. During every office visit, she took the necessary time to explain my situation to me and to answer all of my questions. She provided detailed documentation and instructions prior to my procedures and then provided explicit instructions on what to do post-op. She and her staff were completely focused on getting me well. I feel fortunate to have had Dr. Timbadia be the person who administered my colonoscopy and repaired my hernia.

I was sent to Dr. Timbadia at the height of our pandemic. She absolutely, was strict and professional. We had a incident with an intern or nurse who misread the situation. Dr. TIMBADIA, was phenomenal. She is incredibly talented and very professional. Absolutely, 100 % in my best interests. Thank you Dr. Timbadia. Without her I would have been postponed for another year. 5 stars..

Had surgery and all is well

Great doctor, she knows a lot about medicine and she knows what to do. Yes, sometimes the process is immediate but she takes the time and will always have a good result.

My experience with Dr. Ela Timbadia was EXCELLENT! LOL! Yes, this all happened in 1998 when I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, my husband and I moved to Phoenix from Hawaii, so we were in a whole different world! I was referred to Dr.Timbadia by my Administrator I worked for in a Medical Center. I didn’t know about any Surgeon there, and where to begin searching for one. Before I made my decision to have Dr.Ela Timbadia be my Surgeon I had a second opinion from another well-known Surgeon in Paradise Valley. I am thankful for Dr. Timbadia, yes… I know, the majority of you out there, dislike her for her demeanor. I had 2 surgical procedures done by her, first a Lumpectomy, then a partial mastectomy plus removal of 6 lymph nodes; she was awesome in her job well done. She was a little rough around the edges but a heart of gold! I look for the good in a person and there was a reason for her personality… she never let her guard down. She did me No wrong and I am thankful

I have been in pain for over a year and thanks to you I am not and you kept me calm (not nervous) about the surgery. thankyou

Worst doctor ever!!! Went in for follow up on operation she did, she ordered a MRI. She said MRI showed little growth and to come back in 3 months. Went back in 3 months and she said it looks like I was out of the woods. Couple days later I started having bad pain so I called to get in to see her. Her assistant told me I had been discharged, will no longer see me and hung up on me.

Date Seen 3-14-19-WOW! I have NEVER had a Dr. from the start say "Most people don't get a long with me and seek a 2nd opinion",setting me up not wanting to be there and expecting an unpleasant experience. I cant imagine telling a customer that people dont get along with me and you may want to go somewhere else. Was rude when I asked questions, & would talk over me, not listening to entire question. Wont look you in the eyes!

Ela timbadia is the worst surgeon that I have ever had to deal with she is completely unprofessional very sarcastic depersonalized and does not care about your personal feelings the surgeries that she does is simply a check to her she is very rude very ill-mannered and my last visit I have to get my referral switched over in the midst of my recovery because of her attitude her younger assistant had to come in and apologized for her thinking that would help but it did not do not take your family

This Dr Ela gets a huge fat zero the size of Jupiter for bed side manners for dealing with her patients!!! Don't bring your loved ones here. ????

If there is negative rating, I'd give that lowest one to this "Dr". This was the worst Dr visit experience in the entire USA. This "Dr" will guide the front desk lady personally how to lie to you, when they get busted, this "Dr" will pull u into a room and scare you. First of all, my co-pay for specialist is $70, and she charged for $210. 5% additional charges on top of that if you used your HSA card. They even ask you for cash and there's an ATM in the gas station next door. Most unethical!

She collected two $55.00 copays after I had met the deductible. I requested she return the money to me twice. She has not retuned the money to me.
