PCMA provides palliative medical care to achieve the best quality of life for patients and their families facing serious illness.
Personal Care Medical Associates (PCMA) are the finest group of dedicated physicians and medical practitioners in Western Pennsylvania. Dr. Thimons and his group are very compassionate and caring individuals and they are true advocates for our nursing home residents. PCMA goes above and beyond in all aspects of care. I am proud to be associated with such a fine group of professionals in healthcare and to have Dr. Thimons and Dr. Mantine as our Medical Directors at Brighton Rehabilitation and Wellness Center.
I love working with PCMA, they are so approachable. They all have wonderful bedside manners that help patients and families feel relaxed and comfortable. Most importantly, they care about the patient’s total well-being, mind, body and soul.
The PCMA Doctors and Nurse Practitioners are so attentive to their patients. They are all very quick to address patient and family needs. If I need to talk to them about a patient, they are always available.
PCMA fits into our facility just like family.
The doctors treat me so well. They are very tuned into my needs and listen to everything I want to tell them about my health and then they do what is needed to make me feel better.
PCMA is available to us 24/7. Regardless of what time we’re calling, they are always available to us.
PCMA is a great group they are wonderful to work with, most importantly they are very attentive to their patients.
When I call them for a Peer to Peer review they treat me very respectfully and listen very intently to what I have to say about the residents case.
The therapy department really appreciates how prompt PCMA responds to the needs of their patients. They are very team oriented and constantly involve therapy to produce the best outcomes for our residents.
The Providers at PCMA are so easy to work with, more importantly, they have a quality focused approach to patient care.
The Doctors and Nurse Practitioners at PCMA are so amazing at relating to their patients. I had a patient that was very hard of hearing and the Nurse Practitioner put his stethoscope in my patient’s ears so the patient could understand the conversation! They are a very unique group that really cares!
The Providers of PCMA are always available and I’ve never any difficulty communicating with them and they are very efficient and quick in emergency situations. If I feel something is wrong with a patient, they respect my assessment skills and judgement.
PCMA doctors are very friendly. They like to be familiar with all the staff in our facility.
It’s a pleasure to work with PCMA! Their efficiency helps our medical records department to remain consistently, compliant with state mandated requirements
