Dr. Timothy Palomera, MD

I absolutely CANNOT recommend Dr. Timothy Palomera or SMASA.1) As a medical practice, your time apparently means nothing to them; on more than one occasion, I've sat in their waiting rooms for more than 90 mins after my scheduled appt time.2) Palomera is a mediocre physician and has been an absolute waste of my time, as he would neither address a cyst in my knee NOR give me an injection in my hip himself, but rather wanted to refer me to other doctors for those procedures.3) Rather than take Palomera's referrals, I've sought treatment at an internationally-recognized medical group, but it's now been over a MONTH since that practice requested my medical records from SMASA and there's been ZERO response.4) On more than one occasion, Palomera has handed me a business card with a hand-written phone number on it suggesting that number will get me directly through to his team. NOT ONCE has ANYONE ever returned a phone call when I've left voicemails at that number.

I have been seeing Dr. Palomera for about 8 years. He is by far one of the best doctors I have ever seen. He always takes time to listen to my concerns and discuss a variety of treatment options. He takes a thoughtful and conservative approach, and doesn't rush through the appointment. He is also an advocate for his patients when working with insurance. Phenomenal physician!

Everything good you have ever read about him is 100% accurate. If you see him for care, you are in the very best of hands.

Dr. Palomera is in a league of his own. He has such amazing bedside manners, listens and understands. He is thorough and makes you feel like he really understands. Personable and compassionate. Everything you want in a Doctor. Takes the time to be certain you understand what is going on. He has been phenomenal in every way. I can't recommend him enough. Such a wonderful Doctor. Thank you for all you do!

Excellent. Dr. Palomera treated my daughter who tore her ACL playing club volleyball. He seemed just as determined to get her back on the court as we did. Excellent bedside manners and spoke in a way that made us feel very comfortable. Very Knowledgeable.
