He was so attentive and friendly. Such a nice doctor! He took the time to show me my MRI and explain it to me. Made such a difference for me. I left feeling so much more confident in my decision. I will be referring him other patients in need of his speciality.

Dr. Andrawis met with me for 10 minutes and prescribed a full double hip replacement. He reviewed the same X-ray that my PCP provided. My PCP stated I had mild to moderate arthritis. Dr. Andrawis stated I had severe degenerative arthritis from the same X-ray. He never asked if I had any pre-existing conditions. I had an extreme Vitamin D deficiency which was causing severe bone, muscle, and joint pain. At my second appointment 3 months later, he advised I needed the double hip replacement because I was bone-on-bone. Since I continue to weightlift and do Zumba, that is impossible. I got a second opinion and was told that I failed to stretch and allowed my hips to get tight. He recommended Yoga and it's working. I am highly disappointed in the rush to surgery with no investigation into underlying factors.

Dr Andrawis is amazing he knew exactly where my pain was coming from in my hip , I received a cortisone injection and after 2 weeks the pain I’ve been in for years is gone . It’s only temporary as I’ll probably need a hip replacement but wow what a difference physically and mentally. Pain is also very mentally draining. I feel like I can finally breathe . Excellent Dr.

He helped treat my knee and I am doing amazing. I recovered faster than any of my friends who had the same surgery!

He did my hip replacement and I only needed to stay in the hospital for a few hours. I went home the same day and have had little to no pain. Great team. Great surgeon!!

Dr John Andrawis was awesome. He took as much time as I needed to answer all my questions regarding my Hip Arthritis and possible replacement surgery. He is very knowledgeable and has great bed side manner.

He spent time with me and went over all my xrays. Honestly he was the first person to explain to me what arthritis was and what I could do about it!
