Linda D'andrea's Online Review Report Card

Dr. D’Andrea was very kind and took time with me each visit. However, I was usually waiting over an hour each time I went for an appointment. Her medical assistant NEVER returned my calls. I was also given the impression that I had some very serious brain and spine issues at my last appointment and it sent me down a very expensive and stressful few months. Only to be told that I have NONE of those issues by reputable neurosurgeons.

I hate to leave a bad review, but I have no choice. I’ve spent $1500 dollars over the last 5 months and have gotten no further. My last 2 visits I spent 30 minutes in the waiting room and then an hour in the exam room before the doctor came in. I would think after an hour and half or more of waiting, she would at least review my file, but instead she confused me with another patient. She tried to assign me physical therapy for a second time. She didn’t even know what vertebrae she was looking at in the MRI. I’m picking a new doctor to get my cortisone injection. I mean, leave me in the waiting room where there is a tv. Don’t make a person with nerve pain wait in an exam room FOR OVER AN HOUR!!!

Found her to be kind and caring. Was satisfied with how she explained and treated my injury.

As I lay on the waiting room floor in pain because the doctor was 45min late, she then come out and first asked why I lay on the floor. I'm in pain, that should be obvious. She then went on to lecture me about proper mask wearing, and how the one I scrambled together wasn't respectful enough. I've never before, been greeted with such egregious arrogance in my life. Find a practice that cares about your health, not your mask

STAY AWAY!!! FAR AWAY!!! If you want a COLD, UNcaring doctor then this is the pace for you! You will wait over TWO HOURS - EACH time you go there, only to be told that if you do not qualify for expensive surgery or do not wish to have surgery, there is nothing they can do. Dr. D'Andrea is ESPECIALLY cold - no handshake upon entering the room, allows you to ask only one or two question because she constantly over books and run late, then she kicks you out and says "Oh well, if you don't qualify for surgery then I am going to discharge you!"

Absolute worst doctor I've ever been to. She delayed the diagnosis of my CRPS by nearly a year. The next doctor I went to diagnosed me at my first visit. Dr. D'Andrea is very unprofessional, and ran nearly an hour late for every single appointment. PLEASE see any other doctor, I'd hate for anyone to go through what I did with her. Save yourself the headache and go to a doctor that has much more knowledge of their profession.

I was very disappointed. I waited an hour for an appointment that only lasted 5 minutes. If I could give 0 stars I would.

Dr. D'Andrea is by far one of the most thorough orthopedic specialists I've encountered to date. From my initial consult, her in-depth questioning and careful attention to detailed made me "feel" as if I was the most important patient of her career. I'm a USMC disabled Vet who suffers from serious back issues as a result of a tragic incident in 1977. Since then I've seen a plethora of VA & civilian doctors who for some reason have been unable to diagnosis my chronic back pain and am therefore simply treated with but another pain med prescription. Dr. D'Andrea is the first in over 40+ years who's been able to look beyond the norm in order to identify a probable cause. I was in awe with her ability to ID irregularities in my X-rays & MRI that all others overlooked for decades. Although I'm still in the diagnostic stage, I'm confident that if the seemingly "hidden" pain source is indeed identifiable, Dr. D'Andrea will be the one qualified to do so - and "do so", I believe she will.

Started seeing her in 2014 after tearing/ herniating my L4/L5 disc. Started treatment with PT, then injections. Unfortunately both were short term solutions. Finally decided on disc replacement in 2018 as surgery was a last resort for me personally. 14 months post surgery and I feel amazing. No more back pain! Dr. D'Andrea always gave me all of my options and never pushed me for one treatment over another. Always had a good experience when I saw her and would highly recommend her. She helped me resume a normal life after 4 years of pain.
