About Timothy M Bont

About the Provider

I wanted to be a doctor from the time I was in high school — partly because I enjoyed the sciences, but also because I enjoyed helping people.

My goal is to be thorough in my approach to care. This involves first getting to know you, as well as taking a detailed health history, performing physical exams, and sometimes ordering lab tests. But it can also include getting perspectives from colleagues. There is a lot to know in medicine, and when I am unsure of the best course of action, I feel fortunate to be able consult with our specialists or provide patients with a referral, if needed.

After practicing for more than three decades, one thing has never changed for me: the excitement I feel at seeing patients improve, grow, and thrive. I feel truly blessed to serve others while improving their physical and emotional health.
