Timothy V. Jorden Jr., MD

This man’s hands may well be blessed by God. About a year ago, he saved the life of one of my cousins (due to a near-​fatal surgical error by a different doctor.)
This past December, he saved my own mother’s life, through a series of three very risky, very complicated surgeries. He is not only an extremely gifted surgeon, he is a hell of a guy. He looks at you when he is speaking to you (both patient AND family) and he is genuinely concerned about his patient’s well-​being. He is forthcoming with unpleasant realities, but also exudes optimism.
After nearly 70 days in the hospital following her three surgeries (all in December – an extended and on-​going healing process), he came to check on her, took her hands in his and referred to her as his ‘miracle.‘
He seems to have a spiritual understanding of what he does, which is to say, as good a technician as he is, he never loses sight of the fact that his ‘procedures’ are also human beings, with minds and souls.
God Bless this man.
