John Andrews MD

Been going to Dr Andrews for almost 2 years now and they don’t make doctors better than this one! So much attention to detail, Dr Andrews is highly personable, thorough and examines every variable before making a final judgment. He truly cares about the emotional and psychological aspect to your well-​being and how it plays into your physical conditions/​ailments, so not just a dismissive, «you have this condition/​issue/​etc» along with a quick writing of the prescription. He takes his time (longer than most doctors) and truly cares about his patients. Gem of a find. Oh and did I mention how amazing Michelle, his nurse is! A true angel and an asset to Cedars-​Sinai as are all of the lovely staff there. Very happy patient!

Every time I’ve been to see him, I’ve been kept waiting. And we’re not talking a few minutes. Half an hour, forty-​five minutes, an hour! He asks a few questions, then sends you on your way. I don’t think I’ve ever been «treated» by this guy. It’s been done with over the counter meds and time. He’s also hard to get hold of, he takes a long time to return your calls or emails. Just yesterday, my other doctor told me to see Andrews for some blood tests. All day yesterday, I got the office voicemail. Cedars patient services got them on the phone, the girl said she’d give the message to Andrews. As I write this, I still have not heard from him. If you can go elsewhere, I suggest you do.

Dr. Andrews is the best doctor I’ve ever been to. He really listens, he’s easy to talk to, and he addresses all of my medical questions and complaints thoroughly. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. I’ve been going to him for several years and I’ve never had to wait too long in the waiting room (I’m not sure why some have said this is an issue), and he’s never cancelled my appointment. I can’t recommend Dr. Andrews highly enough.

Doc Andrews is a good guy. You can trust him with his professional opinion. I have an inside view of which doctors are the best at cedars and I was recommended to use John. He has a laid back, but knowledgeable perspective of medicine. He will work with you on solving problems that you may have to overcome. He’ll probably be my primary care physician for a long time.

Dr. Andrews is EXCELLENT! He’s friendly and polite, and he really takes the time to listen to his patients to hear their questions and concerns. Also, and this is a doctor pet peeve of mine, he never interrupts! He really seems to care about his patients. I was struggling for a little while to get pregnant, and when it happened and he saw my bump, he was genuinely tickled for me. It was so sweet. Additionally, his office and nursing staff are super nice and helpful. My whole family goes to him and he’s wonderful with all of us. At one point it looked like our health insurance wouldn’t be contracting with his office anymore (that turned out not to be the case), and I was ready to switch health insurance mid-​pregnancy in order to stay with his office.
Such a GOOD doctor.

This doctor is useless. I’ve never been angrier with a healthcare person, (he’s certainly no professional). He cleared a week that I had been waiting 3 months for a physical and now cancels and puts it out another two months.
What kind of circus is cedars Sinai running?

Dr. Andrews has no understanding of the value of patient’s time. He overbooks and keeps patients waiting. He acknowledges that he runs behind but feels that is his privilege.

Dr. Andrews is a patient person who listens, takes time to understand what’s going on, and is genuinely interested in resolving/​alleviating your health problems. In general, I have found the level of care at Cedars Sinai to be consistently high, especially compared to UCLA, but Dr. Andrews is one of the most capable and caring physicians at CS. The other great thing about Dr. Andrews is that he and his staff respond to electronic messages sent through the MyCSLink system available to all patients and some of the issues I would have had to make an appointment to discuss with other physicians can be taken care of by email.

Dr. Andrews is the best doctor in LA. If you are looking for someone to speak English and call you out on your shit and tell you to lose weight in a way that you understand, he’s your guy! I’ve recommended him to several people and none of them have died since going to Dr. Andrews. I can’t wait for my physical on 12÷1÷14.

Doctor Who
Iz a very nice doctor who will actually listen & even tho he’z world famous isn’t stuck up or anything! I jus wish Cedars-​Sinai wasn’t all screwed up by stealing $ 2000 in medical marijuana/​& my vaporizer & edibles, I wish they would Listen 2 My World Famous Doctor; John Andrews MD. & I’ve had lame Doctors in the past & not anymore! I feel spoiled 2 have such a smart & nice Doctor who takes hiz time w/​each patient! Bless it up

Dr. Andrews is everything a doctor should be. Knowledgeable, caring, easy to talk to… I have been going to Dr. Andrews for almost TEN not 16 years.(thanks to Stu for catching my error. it just seems like he’s been my doctor since i have lived in LA He has watched me go through pregnancy, insanity with my work, more breakups than I care to divulge and has always been a steady guide through it all. I moved back to Boston for a year, and I actually cried when I last saw him. Rosario and all the other women in the office are so much more than just employees. they know me, I feel understood, and after being back east where i felt like every doctor was a cylon. (no personality at all) it made me long for Dr. Andrews and his team even more. He has given me stern lectures when i’ve gotten to thin due to stress, applauded my decision to change careers.(«your health isn’t worth any amount of money») he runs behind sometimes because he refuses to rush through time with a patient, and Cedars wants doctors to book twenty minutes apart.
If you are looking for a doctor who will know YOU. make you laugh. and loves what he does. Dr. John Andrews is your guy. Appointments aren’t always the easiest, but they will work with you.
I am happily back in LA, and so happy to be back where I am more than just a patient.

Dr. Andrews is very kind and thorough. His office and clinical assistants are very pleasant and efficient. I never have to wait a long time in the lobby, and my phone calls are promptly answered. Dr. Andrews even called me on a weekend with my lab results. He seems to be a nice guy who went to med school, works hard, and does right by his patients. I’m glad my Ob/​gyn recommend him to me and I’m now recommending him to all you fellow Unilocalers. My husband and my physician colleague both see Dr. Andrews as well and are very happy with him. Thanks, Dr. Andrews!
Park at nearby meters, or on the street (free for 2 hours).

Dr. Andrews is one of the best doctors I have ever visited. He’s attentive and clearly cares about his patients. Never before have I had a doctor get another specialist on the phone while I’m in the room, nor has any other doctor personally called me with lab results the following evening after hours. His diagnostic questions were very thorough and not once did I get the feeling he wanted to move on to another patient. If you’re seeking a good internist, give his office a call. The staff there is also some of the friendliest I have ever encountered.
