Dr. Timothy R. Bonine, MD 1309 Ponderosa Drive, Sandpoint, ID 83864

"Dr. Bonine is an excellent doctor, who treats his patients as partners in their health care, as opposed to dictating to them. I really appreciate that fact. He listens to me, considers my view on what we should do, advises me, and in the end, it's a joint decision on a plan of action."

"Would not recommend, substandard services. Be prepared to not have your health problems looked into, he is always sure that he knows what's wrong with you , and has no doubt in his mind that he could ever be wrong. I had to get a second opinion on a health problem, he was wrong! I could of died if I only listened to his diagnosis."

"A great doctor for a simple cold, anything beyond that, not so much. His receptionist is unprofessional, inadequate, and not willing find the answers to your questions. I was called an insolent child and spoiled brat because I would not apologize for "saying goodbye and cutting off the conversation too quickly with my receptionist.", while being at work! I am sure if I was in my late 30s vs being in my early 20s, this would not of happened. I did not do anything that would Ok being treated with such disrespect. I was extremely stressed due to just having seizures the past week, my temper may of been short, but it wasn't unprovoked."

"I receive great care from Dr. Bonine and his staff. He always takes the time to talk with me and explains how/what things work. He also saved my mother's life, which we will always be grateful for. Couldn't ask for a better doctor."

"Strictly a country doctor who has no Christian values to help someone whose husband has been sick and unable to make his appt. I went in to ask and sign up in his office for Tamiflu to keep strong for myself and husband. I am 70 years old and am looking at major back surgery in Sept. I was turned away and he refused to see me because I take a zanax at night to sleep. The only reason I gave 1 star was to say how sad this happened to me or anyone else. He would not even come out of his office to talk with me. He had one of the girls do it. What is a world without a little compassion..Amen I also have fibromyalgia and lupus, very sad."
