About Timothy K. McNichols, MD

The practice of internal medicine has always appealed to me because I enjoy the relationships that develop and grow with my patients over the years we spend together. My prior service in hospital medicine was intellectually stimulating for me, but I found it lacked the opportunities to grow those long-term relationships. That’s why I affiliated with MDVIP, which allows me to more time to expand those relationships.

My aim is to support your personalized care and health goals, help you address any current problems and guide your pursuit of preventing possible future problems. The MDVIP model focuses on wellness and prevention, and my smaller practice size allows me to be there for you for more urgent problems or concerns.

I have practiced in Tucson for many years, and I have relationships with many specialists in the community to whom I can refer you, if the need arises. I also have more time to speak with them and advocate for your care.

I am proud to provide my patients with individualized care and more resources to support their prevention and wellness efforts.

My Dad is 84 and has medical issues that require the care of a primary care physician. Dr. Mc Nichols was recommended by a specialist my dad was seeing. Although the doctor seems competent his office staff lacks the professionalism and attention to detail required in the medical field. Be aware of long hold times, poor communication, and non-existent call backs. It is almost impossible to reach a human being. Also, avoid calling between 12-1 pm as lunch takes precedence.
Avoid the frustration and find a doctor with staff that really cares. In Tucson that may be difficult because the top-notch service providers are all booked up and seldom take new patients. Ina Family Medicine has a lot of room for improvement. Training would be a good place to start.

I have recommended them to a family member & a co worker. They both were thankful & had very positive experiences at Ina Family Medicine under Dr McNichols care.

Dr. McNichols was very professional, thorough, and quite personable. He and his staff were both friendly and knowledgeable. I went for a quick annual checkup, and felt genuinely cared for. The staff was very courteous, took care of me MUCH faster than any other office I've been to, and made me feel comfortable throughout my visit. I would absolutely recommend this practice and Dr McNichols.

My first session today with Dr. McNichols was outstanding! The entire office staff and my nurse from front of the house to back were polite professional and helpful. Dr. McNichols is a man who takes the time to sit with you and listen! So nice these days! Anyway - I’m 59 and I’ve been to my share of Family doctors - Dr. Tim and Ina Family Medicine were definitely a pleasant experience. Thanks - happy holiday I will be in to see you in 2020!

Completely unprofessional. I called for an appointment with his partner Dr. Hanna, and was told only McNichols was taking new patients. Took the day off and arrived a half hour early, only to be told McNichols has not made the move to this office yet, he's down the road. Arrived at the other office 15 minutes later than appointment and the receptionist has trouble finding my appointment. When she does, I am informed McNichols has a new patient in 15 minutes and I have an indefinite wait, if he can even see me at all. Don't waste your time like I did!

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
