Timothy O'mara's Online Review Report Card

Rude staff. Waited multiple hours in the waiting room. Why make an appointment if you’re going to sit and wait for hours as every other dr in the practice sees their patients on time. It was an absolute disgrace.

I am the spouse who is a patient of Dr. Omara’s. I have watched my husband’s medical care or lack thereof provided by O’Mara and his office get worse and over the last few months since my husband was diagnosed with Lyme Disease and subsequent lingering muscle and joint pain along with new uncontrolled tachycardia. I have called O’maras office once already complaining about the subpar medical treatment when at the first instance of severe crippling pain he (Omara) immediately referred my husband to a rheumatologist without even doing a complete blood work up first (ie) simple blood work to check to celiac disease etc. I had to write this down for my spouse to essentially beg Dr. Omara to perform. My husband currently is waiting to see a rheumatologist, a neurologist, and has seen an orthopedic specialist. He has been to the Emergency Room with shortness of breath, tachycardia, and chest pain, and while the ED visit was negative (no MI although MI’s run in his direct family) he was sent back to O’mara who (for 3 months now) has only prescribed Lisinopril for hypertension which is not helping (but he is compliant and continues to take the Lisinopril and my spouse has told O’Mara and his affiliates it is not helping) and today 2/1/21 saw him once again for a follow-up and my husband on two separate occasions has asked for Omara’s office to order an ECHOcardiogram and both times the office would not. Today Dr. Omara simply said you need to see a cardiologist (only after my spouse pushed once again for an ECHO which can and is very often ordered by a PCP) which could take weeks or months to get into see a specialist, meanwhile, my spouse is (prior to Lyme and tachycardia) a healthy 40 year old male construction worker who has been compliant with all Drs. orders and appointments. I am extremely concerned either a severe cardiac event or stroke is going to happen to my husband and I will hold Dr. Omara and his office (other covering MDs also saw my husband over the last 3 months) personally liable for his negligent and delays in necessary treatment (s) such as a simple echocardiogram for uncontrolled tachycardia since Lyme disease that isn’t responding to antihypertensives. I have filed a complaint with the RI adept of Health as well. This is absolutely atrocious mismanagement and medical negligence.

Negligence

Dr. Omara’s is my husbands PCP. I have watched my husband’s medical care or lack thereof provided by O’Mara and his office get worse and over the last few months since my husband was diagnosed with Lyme Disease and subsequent lingering muscle and joint pain along with new uncontrolled tachycardia. I have called O’maras office once already complaining about the subpar medical treatment when at the first instance of “pain” he immediately referred my husband to a rheumatologist without even doing a complete blood work up first (ie) simple blood work to check to celiac disease etc. I had to write this down for my spouse to essentially beg Dr. Omara to perform.

A complaint has been sent to DOH. Drs executing subpar care leaving patients in danger need to be held accountable.

Dr. Omara is very nice while you’re in the office with him. After you leave you’re on your own. You seriously have to chase him to get your blood work read... even when it’s abnormal. Because of this very important piece, I would not recommend this doctor to anyone.

He has been my doctor for over ten years. Takes the time to listen to you, diagnose you and come up with a solution. The BEST doctor in RI!

He is a humble and caring health professional. He really listens. In my case II chose him to be my Primary Care Provider because he is competent and good on a personal level too. Very Recently I went to checkout what I thought was water on the knee due to bumping it or because of a chronic condition I have. Instead of sending me to get it drained, he ran an extensive blood test which confirmed Borrelia Miyamoti, an infection that is distantly related to Lyme Disease. WOW. The blood test results were off the charts...I would never have thought of this. I am presently under his care for this and am following up after strong doxycycline medicine treatments. Excellent.

He has been my doctor for over ten years. Always an accurate diagnosis. He takes his time with you at each visit. He genuinely cares about his patients. Very polite and knowledgeable.

Just what everyone else has said...he listens, easy to make an appointment, spends as much time as necessary to go over symptoms, X-rays on site, drawing blood on-site. Has referred to good specialists when necessary.
