Shameful. He is my parents’ doctor. He didn’t know my mother died a week ago…that’s how closely he followed her illness and recent hospital stay. My father has to constantly call him to get him to look at and respond to alarming bloodwork results. My father almost died several years ago because Dr Papandrea misdiagnosed sepsis as a UTI. Shame.

Most caring knowledgeable primary care doctor I’ve seen over a lifetime of 70 years. He takes a personal interest in every aspect of the physical & emotional well being of his patients. Love his ‘old style’ ( remembering /knowing you and family) patient relationship. He gives you his complete undivided attention during each visit, along with the assurance of always getting the best care needed. Both my husband and I consider ourselves so privileged that he is our doctor. Nancy & Phil Cahill

I can't begin to tell you how nice it is to have a doctor actually take his time while examining you. He listens to your concerns and does his best to rectify the problem.

Reminds me of the doctors from my childhood. Resisting intervention by outside forces and dedication to his HIPPOCRATIC OATH. I'm fortunate to be one of Dr. John Papandrea's many patients and friends. In addition his Staff support system is always efficient, professional and warm.

I have been his patient for many years and would not change at any price. He is very personal, very conscientious and he has my total trust. Wish that more physicians could be like him.

Dr. Papandrea is the best. He's thorough, explains everything, he's direct (love that) and he has a great sense of humor too.
