I suffer with osteoarthritis and for the second time in 10 years, Timely Medical Alternatives has helped me get me health back after Alberta Healthcare failed me. In 2012 I needed back surgery for laminectomy with fusion. For 2 years I went through all the hoops; chiropractor, acupuncture, PT, working with a nuerologist, and even after an MRI diognosed my problem I was refused as a surgical patient. Timely Medical helped me find a surgical hospital in the States to fix my back problem. It's been 10 years and my lower back has been painfree since my surgery. Then, last year my hip gave out on me and I was sent to the Calgary Hip and Knee clinic. In July I was approved for a new hip, however the wait time was 1 to 1 1/2 years down the line. I thought I could wait, but in October the pain was so severe that I couldn't sleep, sit or walk my dog. Timely Medical again helped me find a surgical hospital in the U.S. to replace my hip. My hip surgery was in January and I am walking farther now than I have since last summer. When it comes to urgency our social medicine works well. But I feel that if our medical condition is not serious like cancer or heart disease, we are put on a long wait list or denied proper help all together. Thank you Timely Medical Alternatives for helping me once again to regain a painfree lifestyle.

It was a pleasure dealing with Rick & Christian Baker at Timely Medical. They efficiently answered all of my questions. They were able to expedite my hip replacement surgery in less than 3 weeks with an orthopedic surgeon in Phoenix, AZ. I am so thankful to have found Timely and get my much needed surgery so quickly. Five star service all the way. Thanks again....Ina in Calgary, Alberta

Rick had helped me find a top notch surgeon in Oklahoma. As a frustrated Ontarian, it was a pleasure knowing that someone like Rick is out there to advocate on behalf of Canadians needing surgery now, not when the government has time or room.Rick is trustworthy and respectful.Don't live in pain waiting for c19 restrictions to end. These folks are the alternative.

No call back, no return email. Website states 1 business day, obviously they lied. Hard to trust a company with your medical issues when they blatantly misinform a patient.

My wife found Timely Medical while doing internet search for hip replacement in USA. After our initial contact with Christian Baker we received all the information we needed to arrange surgery with Dr KASSMAN. After sending the appropriate medical information to Timely Medical we received an email and then a phone consultation with Dr KASSMAN. Within 6 weeks my wife had surgery on her hip. Her recovery has been amazing - up and walking within 24 hours at the hospital, transitioned to a cane within 5 days under the supervision of an excellent physio, Dillon Harris. The whole experience was smooth and now my wife , who is almost 2 months post-op, walks with no cane and most importantly no pain. Her quality of retired life will only get better as her leg becomes stronger.THANKS to Timely Medical - do not hesitate to contact them.Ted and RitaAirdrie, Alberta

I am very very thankful to Rick Baker for instantly putting me in touch with the best spine surgeon. I was in great distress and pain and got their reference from a friend. I called the number and Rick picked up and talked, I had the images ready which I courier to him the same day. Next day I got the approximate cost from them and they put me in touch directly with the surgeons office. Thereafter I was directly in touch with the surgeon's office and I went under the surgeon's knife in 3-4 weeks time. I am now recovering very will pain free, 2 months post surgery. Rick or his son did not demand a cent from me, they get paid by the clinic. I thank the Bakers for their "Timely" assistance.

Outstanding experience with Timely Medical. Within two weeks, they arranged my (successful) surgery with an excellent surgeon. Support from my initial outreach to long after my return home was seamless and thoughtful.

Don't bother. Sketchy one man show that just doesn't get anything done and tries to charge for it.
