Dr. Scott Timko, DC

Chiropractic Physician

Dr. Scott Timko is originally from Pittsburgh, PA and has resided in Phoenix, AZ since 1999. He took his undergraduate studies at the University of Pittsburgh and received his doctorate degree in Chiropractic from Sherman College of Chiropractic in 1993. In addition to his Chiropractic training, he has taken hundreds of hours of continuing education and has received multiple certifications in Chiropractic, Rehabilitation and Nutrition.

He is married to Nichole, and they have a son, Nick. Dr. Timko is an avid sports fan and loves the outdoors and working out. He gives “Life Enhancement Seminars” on various health related topics at the office and throughout the valley. You can view videos of his classes and webinars on his YouTube channel. Dr. Timko prides himself on treating each patient as if they were a family member.

Along with utilizing the Gonstead adjusting technique, Dr. Timko is skilled in a multitude of other techniques as well. These include high velocity corrective techniques such as Thompson, Pierce and Pettibon to low force techniques such as Arthrostim, DNFT, Activator and SOT (for those who do not like being “popped”). He is also skilled in extremity adjusting and soft tissue work for all types of acute and chronic extremity issues such as shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee, foot and TMJ problems.

Each patient’s adjustment and therapy plan will be based on their particular needs and is not “cookie cutter.” Dr. Timko would love to use his years of experience to customize a health and wellness plan for you and your family. If you are looking for additional nutritional counseling, he would be happy to review your particular case and make recommendations for necessary nutritional support or appropriate lab testing to get to the root cause of your problem.

Back To Doctors

“The doctors at Gonstead Physical Medicine are the best in the valley! Dr Lara literally saved me from back surgery. I had been to several other chiropractors on and off over the past 30 years looking for some sort of relief for my bad back from laying brick and block my whole life and nothing ever seemed to help until I started going to Gonstead Physical Medicine. The DRX9000 Spinal Decompression as well as a series of adjustments were literally a life saver for my back and my whole body. Had I not come to this place, I would of had a costly surgery and who knows if it would of even helped. Dr. Lara and his team are not only very caring and honest, but absolutely by far the best doctors in Arizona. I highly recommend Gonstead Physical Medicine.”

“Gonstead Physical Medicine is the Best! I have been to many medical doctors and chiropractictors and this is the first place that told me the actual cause of my pain. I had multiple disc herniations and spinal misalignments. I couldn't walk, drive, sleep or enjoy anything. I was so frustrated that I was getting worse everyday. After the very first treatment at Gonstead Physical Meddicine I felt tremendous relief. After a series of Spinal decompression and adjustments I feel 100% better. I can do anything. Im back to working, sleeping normally and I have so much energy. The staff is so professional and caring. God Bless all of the doctors and staff at Gonstead Physical Medicine.”

“I have been a patient of Gonstead Physical Medicine for many years. From the Front Desk, through the Therapy Room, and into the Patient Rooms, I have never met a more pleasant and efficient group of professionals...kind, courteous, and caring. The Physicians, Therapists, Clinical Staff always have a warm smile and greeting. They take the time to listen to their patients' concerns and the results prove it. Most of the staff are bilingual which truly makes consultations simple. I wholeheartedly endorse this Practice.”

Carlos P.Patient

“I 1000% recommend. Everyone there is so professional and knows exactly what they are doing. I came in with EXCRUCIATING lower back pain and was diagnosed with a huge hernia. Their treatment plan has helped me get my life going again. Thanks to every staff member and doctor at Gonstead Physical Medicine!”
