Dr. Andrea Halim, MD

It was three years ago that I broke my wrist. I met Dr. Halim the day after it happened, and she was so encouraging that everything would be fine. She preformed surgery afterwards and her follow up visits were very reassuring. I have friends who were in the same situation and they had more trouble with their wrists afterwards, despite surgery. I am so grateful to Dr. Halim that it turned out as well as it did.

After shattering my wrist in a bad fall and being treated in my home town ER, and local orthopedic my wrist was hard casted and healed practically useless. I went to see Dr. Andrea Halim to see what could be done. She sat and talked with me about my profession as a seamstress, single 65 year old very active lifestyle, giving me the option of surgical repair. She was truly sensitive, caring and profession! Her staff are all just as nice and cheerful. She performed a 6 hour surgery at Yale , delicately re-aligning all the bones , with no damage to the nerves or tendons. Dr. Halim was there to explain the procedure after and followed up personally, calling me at home and checking in with the VNS and PT. She even called me on Christmas Eve to see how I was doing! I cannot say enough about her- truly one of a kind and a wonderful, caring person! Update: After another fall and a bad ankle fracture, I emailed Dr. Andrea for a referral- she called me within the hour to see how I was and… got me an appointment the next day with another fantastic surgeon! Thank you so much for everything you have done Andrea!

Excellent surgeon with great bedside manor

What a warm, welcoming personality! She explained everything to me in great detail, and my surgery went great. From start to finish, I was so happy with her care.
