Dr. Timothy McCarthy - Manitoba Clinic

I am extremely happy to have Dr. McCarthy as my rheumatologist. He diagnosed and treated me when my previous rheumatologist couldn't figure me out. He answers questions and is not adverse to me being an active partner in my own health care (like my old rheumatologist, who did not like questions). He is prompt to reply to concerns, is available in person or via telephone appointments, which is exceptionally helpful for immunocompromised patients. His office is very busy, as are most specialists, but the wait times are not excessive. His assistant and the infusion clinic nurses are all helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend him and the staff at the Manitoba Clinic.

For several years, Dr McCarthy has provided me with excellent medical care. He has been instrumental in giving me my life back after struggling with bad flare ups due to psoriatic arthritis and am thankful that he continues to monitor me closely. I appreciate that he is accessible, approachable and always open to listening to my concerns. It has been difficult trying to navigate life with numerous health issues but Dr. McCarthy maintains communication with my other healthcare providers to ensure I remain medically stable.

I have a rare auto-immune disease that affects my vision. It is a progressive "blinding" disease for which there is no cure. Dr. McCarthy has taken pains to research my condition and as a result of the medications he has prescribed for the past 8 years, I still have vision; I still live independently. Without him, I would be blind today. No words can express how grateful I am to him.
