Andrea is amazing. She is professional, friendly, and makes one feel comfortable and accepted. Courteous, funny, fun, and I loved her and wish doctors were just like her. This is how past doctors have always been. Doctors don't care anymore. Andrea is a physician's assistant.
Andrea is an amazing communicator. She always describes the medical issues clearly and shows me my images to help me understand. She is a positive person and I feel absolutely comfortable with sharing my questions with her. She gives me top quality care.
Andrea Bruzas was outstanding! She answered all of my questions, explaining her answers clearly. She demonstrated kindness and compassion. She is an excellent PA.
It feels very weird typing in that I had zero minutes of wait, but it is true that the wait was less than half of a second for me. I also feel weird not talking to an MD/DO, but Andrea is so well trained [and she has fantastic soft skills] that it's okay. She takes out the time to give very detailed explanations and recommendations, which is what I'm looking for. 10/10 great experience.
Great provider. Reviewed imaging studies. Responded quickly to follow message on the same day. I have seen urologist in another state so I wasn't expecting much based on my previous experiences. The np was fantastic and listened to my concerns. I would definitely recommend her.
Andrea is great. Very verbal & informative, with a nice manner of delivering information.
I was very impressed with Andrea Bruzas. She described the medical situation I was experiencing and gave clear answers to all the questions I had. Andrea made careful and extensive notes on my ecare chart and provided me with literature to read.
Very good experience, I liked Andrea Bruzas very much.
Andrea was very clear, concise and open to answering all my questions and providing answers on options and what to expect next. One of the best encounters with an AARP ever.

Andrea was great very thoughtful and thorough in her explanations.
Dr Bruzas was great. Explained everything that was going on from the test and also what the next steps would to help.
Andrea is FABULOUS! She's clearly really smart and knows a ton; yet, she's also gifted in how she explains -- in layman's language -- the kidney stone diagnosis, the "reading" of the CAT Scan imaging....and outlining the pros and cons -- and the appropriateness -- of various treatment options. Top Notch skills. [,,,]
Andrea was very thorough with explanations and options. She took time to answer all questions and was very kind and patient.
I was thoroughly impressed. I'm married to a physician and know the health system well. This was the best medical appointment I've ever had by a margin. The provider was attentive and gave me all the time needed. They discussed my diagnosis in detail and was able to comment on research topics my partner had asked me to discuss.
Andrea was very thorough. Listened to my concerns; discussed options for ongoing care. Felt like a real team process!
Andrea Brussas was very professional and competent.
