Andrew Ashcroft's Online Review Report Card

Yes, I have already recommended this doctor to others. He knew right away what to do to help me with my problems.

Not right for me; tardy without explanation; abrupt and dismissive.

Worse surgeon ever!

Dr. Andalkar realized that without surgery I would have no quality of life. I was very high risk due to a clotting disorder but we bluntly discussed the risk-vs-reward. His skill level was incredible as I had a dual level laminectomy in March of 2019 and he was able to do it without screws or metal being used. He was honest about the post surgery pain level and recovery time frames. I have 9 other bulging discs as well as other other spinal issues but if I ever need another surgery - this man is doing it! Thanks Doc!

This man is an angel from above, reading other reveiws seems like people dont like straight shooters. I do as im one myself. When i first met Dr Andalkar i could hardly walk after being in a motorcycle accident. We spoke all straight honest answers, no sugar coating and thats the best way to be. He will tell you everything in depth and spends time explaining. Here i am nearly one year down the road after surgery but im walking standing up straight and i could not give this man more gratitude..... however his office staff are on the other end. Terrible and rude.

In 2006 &. 2007 I was blessed to have been a patient of Dr Andelkar in Tucson, Arizona. He did a extensive & through examination of my lumbars & we discussed the outcome of having a surgery. He advised me that it could paralyze me. Finally, he scheduled me for the surgery on Nov 7, 2007. It took him 7+ hours to complete. Today I wear a steel brace in my back. After Dr Andelkar moved to Mesa I was told that I had the best surgeon in the United States. Today I am basically pain free. I have repeatedly & will continue to recommend patients to Dr Andelkar.

No visit office staff rude, unorganized and simply can’t do there jobs. Amanda makes guarantee and can’t follow through. Office manager no where to reach Alexis is so called fill in and and simply wrong for the office as she’s rude and unpatient care. They really need training in patient care and how to provide higher level of service. Do not use them as I can not nor will I recommend them for this issue alone.

Horrible office staff can’t find paperwork, they are disorganized and simply rude. They lack in patient care and organization. Amanda says things and never follows it through. Alexis is a so called fill in for the office manager that is never around and just as rude. Unable to make appointment and will never recommend them based on first impressions the office staff needs major training in all areas. Don’t use them find someone else that had it together and puts patients first. Because this office doesn’t do that. They can’t do there jobs.

Dr. Andalkar was a super professional and the surgery he did on my back turned out great. He was very straight forward in his communications and took the time to understand my concerns and outcomes. He also had a sense of humor. A great neurosurgeon.

I started seeing Dr Andalkar at the end of 2017. After some persistence I was able to provide them with all the information they needed to evaluate my case. Once I got a appointment the MRI’s and Catscans were scheduled. Once the results were back I was scheduled for surgery. I had my surgery in February of 2018. My pain is all but gone. I had pain generating down my arms to my fingertips. I was in excruciating pain. He is a brilliant Doctor. By far my favorite doctor.
