Dr. Lovell is the best! The guy knows what he's doing and is kind and compassionate. He replaced my hip when I was 46 years old. I was pretty much disabled from hip pain and Immobility. The other doctor I was going to kept telling me he wouldn't replace my hip because I was too young. Dr. Lovell took one look at me and said "do you think you waited long enough?" (as in disbelief someone would be going around with a hip that bad). He said he would replace my hip and I was overcome with relief. Dr. Lovell put in a ceramic hip that has given me no problems for the last 20 years. He gave me my life back!
Providence Patient
He did my total hip replacement. I am very happy with how well that was done and the wonderful results.
Providence Patient
He's excellent!! Only thing adverse that happened is they forgot to put me on the surgery wait list 1 1/2 years ago

Providence Patient
All very good care .
Providence Patient
Probably the only "negative" was that the medical assistant who took me back to the room was not the friendliest, tho did her job professionally. The "good" part was that the provider I saw was friendly, had a good sense of humor and explained things thoroughly.

Providence Patient
The doctor listened and explained in detail about my problem with my hip. I have never had a doctor explain to me about what needs to be done and let me make the decision regarding what needs to be done next. He showed empathy and compassion to my problem. I would tell anyone to use this doctor for their needs.

I am very happy with the care provided to me.

Providence Patient
Dr Lovell is the best!
Providence Patient
First of all I was able to see the surgeon on my very first visit!Secondly, he asked me what is the reason for my visit. Explain my injury. When it occured...etc.He wanted to hear from me first before looking at my chart.He is a great listener.Then he examined my hip and leg.Then he listed options to ease the pain.Then I chose surgery.It was so clear and thorough.Dr Lovell is concerned that my bones may be too thin. After viewing my ex-rays.I'm so grateful he spotted that serious disease so I can get immediate help from my primary physician.Hopefully I can turn that problem around.Dr Lovell was a gift to meet and the best surgeon for my hip replacement.

Professional office, good communication, expert in their field
Providence Patient
As a rheumatologist, I know Dr. Lovell and his personal and surgical reputation. Great to deal with now over a very complex knee problem. Specifically made an appointment to seek his valued opinion during a short visit from Tucson. Will treturn soon for the rest of the summer and would highly prefer him for any knee surgery then.
Providence Patient
All good
Providence Patient

Dr Lovell is so helpful and genuinely seems invested in helping me get to the best possible outcomes. I can't tell you how much I appreciate this when I can't find a primary doc who seems to care.
Providence Patient
Dr. Lovel-Excellent
Providence Patient
Dr. Lovell has an excellent raport with patients.
Providence Patient
Dr Lovell was kind with great people skills. He is very thorough and professional. I drive two hours from the TriCities just to see him
Providence Patient
Dr Lovell has always treated me with the utmost respect and treated me like a valuable individual. Upon disclosing some personal tgings he has never judged me or treated me any different like his colleagues did and do. He is genuine and I feel cares about me as a person not just as a patient although he is always just conserned with my best medical outcom.
Providence Patient
Very pleased
Providence Patient
Was a bit disappointed as it was the first time that Dr. Lovell really didn't seem to listen or understand my concern. He seemed to focus in on one thing, even tho he said it was unlikely, but never addressed what could be the problem if it wasn't the unlikely thing. No phone call with results and still same post op problem with no explanation. Frustrating
Providence Patient
The care was awesome that I received..
Providence Patient
I was very happy to meet Dr. Lovell who will do my knee replacement surgery. I appreciate being able to ask questions about concerns with the surgery. I feel very confident with having a good outcome from this surgery.
Providence Patient
I have had a very positive experience with all my care providers. However, it has been a very long wait to get my surgery scheduled; 18 months from my initial visit with my surgeon to the actual date it's scheduled. This has put quite a strain on me. I don't blame my surgeon or his staff, but the Providence system needs to work on how it can solve some of these delays in providing care to its patients.
Providence Patient
I would recommend Dr. Lovell to anyone that need knee or hip replacement surgery and in fact I have sent him patients.
Providence Patient
He was good in dealing with a difficult situation v
Providence Patient
Dr Lovell was outstanding! He was highly professional while being uniquely skilled at maintaining a friendly atmosphere.
Providence Patient
I always have a good experience when I see Dr. Tim Lovell. He has replaced both my hips and this visit was a 5-year follow up.
Providence Patient
Good experience. I trust him. He operated on my other knee with a very successful outcome. Hoping for the same this time.
Providence Patient
Is very knowledgeable and thoughtful.
Providence Patient
Dr. Lovell explained in great detail how I was supposed to rehabilitate my knee for about the next year. I appreciated the detailed help.
Providence Patient
Dr. Lovell is the best!
Providence Patient
I was referred over to Dr Lovell, from my other provider, to get his opinion. Dr Lovell didn't know why I was there. I felt that he was willing to listen to my answers to his questions but not to all my concerns. He was very nice and knowledgeable but I felt talked down to because I think he didn't know my provider had referred me over not that I was just looking for a second opinion. I'm thinking miscommunications took place that day. I have no doubt he is an excellent physician and very caring.
Providence Patient
I love this office!! They treat me like family. They know who I am and what my needs are!
Providence Patient
Dr Lovell has a great healthcare team.
Providence Patient
I really like Dr. Lovell - he clearly is one of the best of the best technically, but he also has an excellent "bedside" manner - I believe that his perspective on the application of medical care for me is right on target. If I should need further surgery which would require his attention, I hope that I will be able to have him do it.
Providence Patient
All care was very good
Providence Patient
Both the person who did the x-rays on my knee's and Dr Lovell were very professional and kind, they listened to me and answered any questions that I had!! I left the appt with all my concerns answered and with full confidence that I will be in good hands for when I have surgery on both my knees!! :)
Providence Patient
Thank you Dr. Lovell for taking the time to hear my concerns and explain what exactly was happening to my knee!
Providence Patient
This visit was specifically about answering my questions about hip revision and recovery. Dr. Lovell was patient and kind
Providence Patient
Tim Lovell is great
Providence Patient
I'm very glad Dr. Lovell is practicing again after his accident. I will be having knee replacement in 10 days.
Providence Patient
Dr Lovell does a great job
Providence Patient
Dr Lovell was very concerned that all my questions about my upcoming hip replacement were answered. He was very apologetic about my 30 minute wait time in the exam room. He explained that he had 3 complicated patients before me.
Providence Patient
Best experience possible.
Providence Patient
I had dislocated my left knee and it was taken care of in an ER. Both of my knees have been replaced by Dr. Lovell. I was not able to see Dr Lovell or his assistant for 10 days, which I thought was a big delay for my condition. Once I met with the assistant and then Dr Lovell, all was fine.
Providence Patient
The survey may be vague. Doctor is a surgeon who did a full hip replacement. I had quality care from all staff.
Providence Patient
Dr. Lovell and his team are excellent and are taking good care of me as I prepare to have my 1st surgery, Mako knee replacement at age 75.
Providence Patient
I am confident Dr Lovell will give me the best possible service.
