Hernandez, Timothy, MD

West St. Paul

CEO, Entira Family Clinics

As a family physician with over 36 years of experience, my mission is simple: to provide compassionate, holistic care for my patients, treating them like they are part of my own family. I am deeply committed to supporting the well-being of each individual and family I serve, and I strive to build long-term relationships based on trust, respect, and mutual understanding.

I have been privileged to watch my patients grow, whether they are children reaching milestones or adults managing chronic conditions. My approach to care is rooted in the belief that health is shaped by a combination of physical, emotional, and social factors, and I take the time to understand all aspects of a patient's life.

I’m constantly in awe of the privilege of being present for life's most important moments – from assisting in births to guiding children through adolescence, and supporting adults as they navigate health challenges. I find great joy in being a part of these significant moments and walking alongside my patients as they navigate both the highs and lows of life.

As CEO of Entira Family Clinics, I am honored to work with a dedicated team of providers who share a commitment to offering high-quality, patient-centered care. Our clinic is a place where continuity of care matters, and I take pride in knowing that I can see families through multiple generations, providing care from birth through adulthood.
