Dr. Flandry is extremely knowledgeable without being arrogant. He was able to explain what I needed surgically and set me up on the right path to move forward.
I had no contact with him the day of my surgery or after surgery. I was in agonizing pain in the hospital and when I was released. Hydrocodone and Tylenol did nothing to help me and it’s shameful that a 75 year old woman who has had two breasts removed at separate times, 3 breast reconstructions and her gall bladder removed had to be ignored when asked for something stronger. Worrying about patient possible drug addiction should NOT be your concern but patient comfort should be your priority. I would have happily signed a waiver to release the doctor and facility of any responsibility of possible drug addiction.
Excellent doctor. Very smart and knows what he’s doing for sure. Just have to wait a long time every time I go see him. Needs better time management.
Excellent
Dr Flandry takes time to listen to his patients concerns. He genuinely cares about his patients treatment plan and executes.
extremely knowledgeable, did not rush us and makes you confident in his
Excellent in every way. I was extremely pleased
I like seeing Dr. Flannery not a person in training.
But he said he would call me about my blood work and I haven’t heard from him
I had a pretty bad accident back in January 2025. My surgery was performed by the trauma team in Ft Pierce,FL. Unfortunately, complications followed, and I remained non-weight-bearing for over five months.I landed in GA due to not being able to walk. After spending several weeks, researching orthopedic surgeons, Dr Flandry stuck out above everyone else. I had my first appointment with Dr. Flandry today. His entire team was outstanding. My exam was thorough, the radiology team was so kind, gentle and professional. Dr. Flandry, answered all my questions. Even though this was my first visit, I felt like I had known this doctor for a long time. For the first time I felt hope once again, Dr. Flandry told me his specialty was dealing with complex surgeries. I left feeling I was going to leave that wheelchair behind me, and be the person I was prior to my injury. I can’t tell you why, but I trust him. I would totally recommend Dr. Flandry, I can’t wait to become whole once again.
