Get to know Internist and Pediatrician Dr. Angela Timm, who serves patients in Faribault, Minnesota.

As an osteopathic physician, Dr. Timm is able to treat the whole person rather than individual issues. She sees both children and adults at Allina Health Faribault Clinic in Faribault, Minnesota. 

Practicing internal medicine and pediatrics, her professional interests include preventive medicine, diabetes, well child visits and virtual visits. She offers face-to-face or virtual visits for a variety of health services and conditions, and believes that every patient is important, deserves to be heard and treated with respect.

“I enjoy meeting new patients and getting to know them in addition to their medical condition.  I love learning about what my patients enjoy to help understand how to treat their medical issues” expressed Dr. Timm.

Realizing that she cannot heal the world, her hope is to make a difference through dedication and love for her patients. Described as capable, thorough, and compassionate, she not only listens, but hears her patients’ needs and concerns. 

A native of Rochester, Minnesota, Dr. Timm graduated with her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from the College of Osteopathic Medicine at Des Moines University in 2005. She then went on to perform a combined residency in internal medicine and pediatrics at the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Peoria from 2005 until 2009.

A member of the American Osteopathic Association, the doctor is board-certified in internal medicine by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM). The ABIM is an organization that provides board certification to qualified Doctors of Medicine who specialize in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disease in adults.

Furthermore, she is board-certified in pediatrics by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP). The ABP is an organization that provides board certification to qualified Doctors of Medicine who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of medical diseases in infants, children, and adolescents.

In good standing with a number of professional organizations, Dr. Timm is a member of the American Medical Association, the American College of Physicians, and the American Academy of Pediatrics. 

Excelling in her field, she attributes her success to hard work through school, great family support, and a strong drive to achieve her dream.

Internal medicine is the medical specialty dealing with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Physicians specializing in internal medicine are called internists. They manage and prevent common and complex diseases by providing comprehensive care and promoting overall well-being.

Outside of practicing medicine, Dr. Timm enjoys walking, hiking, fishing, reading, cross-stitching, watching gymnastics, and playing with her kids. Her favorite place to vacation is at her cabin in Northern Minnesota. Her favorite professional publications are The New England Journal of Medicine, The Journal of Pediatrics, and The Journal of the American Medical Association.

Recognizing that balance is a good call when it comes to diet and staying active, her favorite health tip is to eat more fruits and vegetables and to get regular exercise.
