Dr. Andrews   became a physician because he enjoys finding creative solutions to complex problems.  His passions as a physician include wound care and joint replacement in the foot and ankle; he also has extensive experience in limb salvage.  Dr. Andrews is an Alliance Health “O.G.” and has actually been with the company since before we grew into the Alliance Health we are today.

As a doctor, he would advise all of his patients to research their medical conditions, ask questions during your appointments, and be an informed consumer.  Healthcare is complicated, but understanding your own situation can help make things easier.

Outside of work, Dr. Andrews enjoys spending time with his wife (who is also a podiatrist), and their two children.  He is also a veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.
