He treats patients of all ages and backgrounds, with a focus on comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of knee and shoulder disorders. Dr. Bollom utilizes minimally invasive techniques and a sports medicine philosophy of returning patients to normal activity as quickly as possible.
“I was drawn to the medical field because I wanted to make a difference in people’s lives,” says Dr. Timothy Bollom. “When I get to see a patient I’ve treated doing what they love again, it’s the best feeling in the world.”
