Here’s a reworded version of your review that keeps it professional, heartfelt, and clear: ⸻ Dr. Andry was my second opinion for my right shoulder after a disappointing experience with a previous surgeon. From the start, he was Show morecompassionate, knowledgeable, and took the time to walk me through every detail, answering all of my questions thoroughly. I’m now 1.5 months post-op and the difference compared to my first surgery is like night and day. The office staff—especially Ayesha—were incredibly helpful, and the surgical and recovery team was top-notch. I can’t recommend Dr. Andry enough to anyone dealing with shoulder issues. 100/10! Thank you so much again Dr. Andry!

I've seen Dr James Andry several times now. He's very thorough and will take time to answer your questions so come prepared. I'm a nurse and so I appreciate his answering all of my questions. He's very encouraging but doesn't sugar coat either. He expects you to follow instructions and perform your physical exercises regularly at home.

Todo salio bien de mi cirugía, tenía más problemas de lo que el pensaba y me pudo reparar todo el daño que tenía en mi hombro...me tienen que operar el otro hombro y claro que regresaría con el
Dr. Andy got to the heart of my issue (shoulder pain from an old sports injury) superfast, and then explained in a clear, logical manner my options to deal with this issue.
Dr. Andy seems to be concerned and knowledgeable about my specific shoulder injury and getting me into physical therapy to help with my healing process.
I’m a fan of Dr Andry was thorough and responsive. I would definitely see him again should the need arise.
He is a great Dr understand and listen ....I would recommend him to all my friends and family..the staff is great

GREAT SURGERY GREAT STAFF GREAT DOCTOR
Dr. Andry was great. I felt very comfortable with his skills as a surgeon. However, he needs a second "scheduler". Samantha seemed overwhelmed because there was a delay in carrying out his orders - Every. Step. Of. The. Way! From the "stat" CT scan of my elbow, to scheduling the surgery, medication, and the therapy afterward.
The entire experience with Dr. Andry And his office was uniquely, professional, courteous, and competent. From the surgery itself to the follow up with his office, staff was a wonderful experience I would highly recommend Dr. Andry And his office to anyone seeking the very best in orthopedic care.
