Dr Timothy Bartholomew

Tim Bartholomew DDS, FACS is a native of Ohio, having grown up in Mansfield and he has lived in Vermilion since 2009. He is married with 2 adopted girls from China. For the past 20 years, along with his wife, a physician who he met on mission surgical work in Cambodia, they have spent the better part of those years in multiple countries in Africa, as well as Honduras and Cambodia, working at mission hospitals doing maxillofacial and craniofacial surgery in subsaharran Africa and teaching and advising other surgeons, especially national doctors. His workload there included a very wide range of maxillofacial, plastic and craniofacial surgery and he gained expertise in these areas working in limited resource settings. They have recently rebased back in Vermilion as family demands have changed. His areas of interest are dentoalveolar surgery, IV sedation, oral and facial pathology as well as correction of minor facial lesions. Dr. Bartholomew spends 1 day per week at the Erie County Health Dept to serve the population there doing basic oral surgery. He is fluent in French. In their spare time, Dr. Bartholomew and his family enjoy returning for short trips back to Africa 2-3 times per year to continue work in countries where they have previously been. He also enjoys what outdoor activities are afforded living near Lake Erie. Together with Dr. Clemow, they offer a truly unique blend of oral and maxillofacial surgery expertise combining their wide ranging skills to provide a variety of options for patients both in a private office setting or health department setting as well as a university hospital setting nearby by Dr. Clemow.
