Andrew Bries
M.D.

Caring, professional. Speaks in a manner you will understand what exactly is going on and why it's happening. Couldn't ask for a better surgeon!

Friendly staff, thorough examination and explanations, didn’t feel rushed, and received optimal care. I’ve heard great things about Dr. Bries, and his patient-care was excellent.

I went in for my knee, he ended up fixing a finger too.

Dr Bries was who we went to for my sons second opinion for his elbow. He found out right away what was wrong with him after the 1st Dr wasn't sure. He checked on him the next day after surgery to see if he was doing ok.

They tell it like it is. I like that

Have had good results with Ora for both me and my son in the past and all staff is very polite and great to work with

Dr. Bries was great. He introduced himself as Andy. This was a follow up to a knee injury on a knee that was replaced 6 yrs ago. I was seen the first time in urgent care. Andy checked out the knee to make sure all was well and healed. Then he spent time talking about what I could be doing better for it. I’m a gym gal but kind of baby it. He encouraged me to do more strength training and less impact exercise. I loved this, as that’s what I prefer. He encouraged me to try a bike again. I had given up on this years ago, since my knee wouldn’t bend enough. Dr. Andy said I could do it and I should try again. That day I left his office, went straight to the gym, and was able to ride the recumbent bike. I was shocked! I just needed a kick in the pants, I guess. No more treadmill for me!! Lifting lots of weights, also. Thanks Dr. Andy!! Stacie Chambers

I broke my clavical bone in a car accident he has worked through each step of what has been needed. The surgeries have been amazing. If you need shoulder area work he is proficient and very caring.

I been going to Bries for a while. He is a great doctor. Explains everything so that you can understand what is going on with your body. Is very helpful. He has helped me with my shoulders an knee. Glad that I have him for a doctor.

6 month follow up . Met with PA Megan Wulf. She did an outstanding job. Very informative with my problem. Took time to answer my questions and determined the next course of action. Highly recommended.

Very little wait time before seeing Dr Bries. Staff was friendly. Dr Bries and his staff listened to my concerns and provided detailed information about my needed procedure. Would definitely recommend.

Short wait time at appointments. Staff is always courteous. Doctors answered all my questions and it appears the surgery worked.

Dr. Bries and his PA, megan, went over options and set a plan of action for my knee, instead of jumping right to a total knee replacement. They both listen, give you the options, and let you decide on your course of treatment.

Outstanding service throughout my experience with ORA and Dr. Bries

I came in for my knee I was treated with respect and I felt they cared

Very Knowledgeable. Very Respectful. Gets down to business. Doesn’t beat around the bush.

He is a wonderful doctor he cares and explains everything in terms you understand

He was very professional, yet kind. He explained and showed me my xrays. He answered my questions, some of which were probably minor. I have seen him 3 times for knee pain and a broken elbow. I would recommend Dr. Bries.

Ive been seeing Dr Bries since 2014 And he is amazing! He’s a very knowledgeable and passionate doctor. His PA Peter is amazing as are his nurses. Always recommend De Bries. To anyone I talk to.

Dr. BRIES. FOCUSES ON SHOULDERS. I BROKE MY clavical bone from a car accident. I have been cared for and surgery....in process of healing.

Every appointment for my 2 year old daughter was very quick and efficient. I felt like Dr. Brie’s and his team really cared about my daughter’s injury and her anxiety with the whole process.

Dr. Bries is great! He listens to your concerns and together you work on a plan of action. He’s very nice and very caring.

I would highly recommend Dr. Bries to anyone in need of orthopedic surgery. Dr. Bries has been very thorough in answering my questions throughout the entire process from the initial exam to post-operative recovery. He listens to patient concerns, and did a fantastic job at laying out all of my options and the potential benefits/risks of each route we could take. I opted to have surgery right away and I'm so glad I did (2 weeks post op and I'm already in less day-to-day pain than prior to the procedure)! Also, his nurse Katie is very good at returning calls and relaying questions/concerns to the doctor. I would definitely choose this team again in the future if I have another sports injury!

We highly recommend Dr. Bries! Daughter had a tear in her meniscus. Everything went wonderful with the surgery and the healing process. Great care with every appointment. Personable, professional and answered any questions we had. All the staff at ORA was wonderful. Thank you for all do!

Dr Brie’s listens as you discuss your problem and your hope for an outcome and then suggests possible solutions, allowing you to ask questions. Together, you decide on a course of action. Doctor and his staff treat you with respect and kindness.

Caring and easy to understand, explains so you understand. I scheduled surgery

Dr.Bries is a great Dr great staff very helpful all questions were explained he did a great job on my meniscus surgery.

I have been very happy with Dr. Bries. My surgery which he performed went well. And at his follow up appointments he answered all my concerns and encouraged.me to continue with all my therapy.

The staff is great doctor has a sense of humor look forward to my surgery I know he'll do a good job

If you have bad limbs like tree, you can get them cut off or fine a excellent Doctor & trust his opinion. PS Like Dr Bries Thank John Suiter

Dr. Bries has been amazing. He was frank, open to questions, and responsive to my concerns. He also follows the current science around the procedures he uses as well as pre/post physical therapy, etc. I recommend him without reservation to family and friends.

Great personality and seemed very interested in my care. Communication was very good and relaxed. So far Dr. Bries has helped in fixing the pain I have felt for some time.

My care has been Fantastic Dr Bries and Megan and Katie have gone above Beyond in care!

I was sent to Dr.Andrew Brie's,M.D. when I fell down the stairs taking the garbage out. There office is very clean and my ride had to stay in car and I was told just myself was told to come in building. It went very smoothly and I got in pretty quick. All the staff was very nice and friendly. They were kind and got me in room in back. They set up appointment for surgery that day. I really like Dr.Bries and would recommend him highly. He explained what he was going to do in surgery and made me feel very comfortable about it. He did a wonderful job.

ORA was so informative and helful throught my whole process for carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel surgery ANDREW made sure what i needed to do and how to do it with every step.

Highest possible recommendation. We go there for all our broken bones and joint injuries. Kind and knowledgeable staff explains everything that needs to be done.

Surgery was awesome they took really good care of me

Efficient check-in/quick service - very little waiting time. Staff is very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Dr Bries made sure I understood his diagnosis and patiently answered my questions.

Dr. Bries is an excellent surgeon, he works under pressure most of the time and uses his expertise in the best way he knows. Yet is very personable.

Quick efficient got the problem taken care of.

I have sustained several injuries requiring surgery over the past couple of decades serving our great nation and was very apprehensive about yet another surgery. When I had arrived I was greeted by a very professional and courteous staff at both OAR Orthopedics and Crow Valley Surgery Center. Dr Bries listened to my concerns and needs as a patient, recommended a course of action that I had felt comfortable with, and delivered on his promises. Two weeks post-op and I’m feeling so much better. Thank you and your staff for putting my mind at ease, you truly are one of the best! Godspeed!

Very professional and courteous. Dr. Brie’s was very concerned about my health and well being. Made recommendations on what I should do with my medical condition. Very smart man! Would recommend Dr. Brie’s and associate to everyone.

Dr. Bries’ care of my rotator cuff, labrum repair was exceptional & expedient from diagnosis to surgical repair. Megan Wulf, Dr. Bries’ Assistant, is very professional, thorough, helpful, reassuring & personable. Megan was patient with the many questions I had re my shoulder repair. Her orthopedic experience is evident.

ORA ORTHAPEDICS has a great staff and Doctors who take the time to answer your questions and treat each patient with great care. I watched how caring they were with an elderly couple who needed extra attention for their special needs. I was really happy about that. I knew then that I was in the right place to have my needs taken care of. What a great team.

I received a cortisone shot in each shoulder

Dr. Bries was very understanding, professional and genuinely cared about my medical issue. I would recommend to others to seek Dr. Bries for like orthopedic problems.

I recommend all the doctors here especially Dr Bries. He takes care of my stump ( I lost my leg 42 years ago to cancer), knee. I have had wrist problems due to using crutches and they took care of that. Doctors have retired and then I get a new one. I ? ORA and all doctors especially Bries and his PA.

Dr.Bries is a wonderful doctor. I have had surgeries on both my shoulders. I had issues during recovery, but he was patient with me. I highly recommend him! Recently I was having issues with my right shoulder. I saw Dr. Bries and he took the time to talk with me and recommended a variety of options. I love Dr.Bries...he always takes the time to make sure that I am doing well. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs to see an Orthopedic surgeon.

Dr. Bries was professional and answered all my questions.

They get the job done well, with as little pain as they can. All I have my appointments have been quick and done well.

This was my second total shoulder replacement that Dr Bries has done. I had my right shoulder done last November and had so much relief I scheduled my left shoulder for March.. then COVID hit and I had to postpone. My Left shoulder Is going easier than my right. I just have to remember to take it easy. This surgery is highly recommended by me if you are living with pain!

Love the family, Dr. And his PA are very interested and concerned about me as a patient.

Dr.bries is a no nonsense doctor .to the point highly recommend..all the staff at ora are awesome group.

Dr Brie’s and his staff are always on time, pleasant and efficient with my time. I’m happy I come here.

Professional good at what they do determine to make you feel better

I have had to go to Dr. Bries for two different injuries and each time he actually listened to my pain and my story. My knee I ended up having surgery on, but he tried everything to avoid the surgery. My ankle was not healing after months of treatment from another Dr, so I went for a 2nd opinion through him. He diagnosed me with a rare disorder that hadn't even been mentioned through my previous Dr. Within weeks, my ankle was on the mend.

Everyone there was so nice and helpful

The staff very friendly. Very professional.

Dr. Brie’s is an awesome and amazing doctor. He listens to his patients and make sure they understand what is going on with their injury or joints. Dr. Bries makes you feel at ease that everything is going to be completed correctly and safely if you need to have surgery. Dr Bries is very meticulous and will do the very best he can as your doctor.

Very well. The Dr and staff was very friendly and helpful

Peter, PA, has been taking care of my issue, with input from Dr. Brie’s. I feel very confident in their assessments and care.

Great Staff and service, NO LONG WAIT TIME!

My shoulder surgery went very well. Post-operative pain was very minimal, hardly more than what I was experiencing before surgery after the tear. Dr. Bries and his staff were very attentive. Two weeks after surgery, I couldn't be more pleased. Within days all I was taking for pain was Tylenol. I strongly recommend Dr. Bries in all respects.

Dr. Brie's is a very attentive and compassionate provider.

Felt safety measures during Covid times were thorough. Got into appointment quickly. Kind, friendly nurse. Happy with expertise and professionalism of Dr. would highly recommend ORA.

Great

Dr. and nurse we friendly and professional. Follows the protocol for safety with covid and I felt safe.

Well the first time I met Dr. Bries he was tough but good. I am having surgery tomorrow with him as the Surgeon. I have no doubt it will go well. He comes highly recommended from many people and Organizations that I know personally.

Thank you so much, in the few minutes of being with you, you already had a game plan and an idea of what my issue is.

Dr. Bries is a knowledgeable and thorough doctor who I have seen for both a shoulder issue as well as a radial head fracture. He is appropriately conservative in approach and did not recommend surgery as first course or even second course based on individual circumstances. His PA Peter is also very good. Nurse is responsive. Overall great care!

Dr Bries has done both of my knee replacements. I have not had any problems with either surgery. I have RA and he always keeps my existing condition in mind. EXCELLENT physician!!!!!

Very impressed with the entire process. Everyone pleasant and professional. Dr Bries came highly recommended by other professionals affiliated within this industry. He uses the latest of technics and prosthetics. His concern for accuracy and results are forefront of his practice. I am about a week out from surgery and doing much better than I expected. PT agrees that I am ahead of the curve. I give all credit to Dr Bries and staff.

Dr. Brie’s listen carefully and unhurried. Explained my healthcare issues and provided adequate treTment and follow up.

Dr. Bribes and staff are very pleasant. They show their caring and actually listen to what you have to say. He asks if you have questions and gives you time to answer.

Dr. Bries and his staff are very professional and provide excellent care.

Excellent care. They all were so friendly!

Dr. Bries and Peter as well as all of the ORA staff are wonderful. My surgery was a breeze as well as my recovery. The highest quality of talented doctors and nurses who also provide the most caring environment. I would recommend ORA to all! You will be pleased you chose them. Thank you ORA!!!

Dr. Bries was very informative on my injury and very caring. I had no pain 3 days after my surgery. Very thorough at answering my questions and concerns. He gets an A plus. Thank you Dr. Bries.

Very nice guy!!! Explained things so I understand. Great place!!! Verg friendly.

Care was outstanding. Went in for a cortisone treatment for my right knee.

Dr. Bries is very knowledgeable. He takes time during appointments to educate and listen. I learn without asking the right questions and that makes me feel aware of my injury and what to expect. He does not push any agenda, and allows me to make safe decisions.

Dr. Brie's is one of the best surgical drs there is! He cares alot about his patients. His PA Peter is awesome too!! Very very professional and great bedside manner!

I have one leg and dr Bries and done alot for me. He was going to be doing knee surgery but I broke my hip. So first I need to heal before I even plan having my surgery. I respect Dr Bries word.

The prompt service. Shelly, Peter, and Katie are very nice.

The staff is very friendly and helpful and the doctors listen attentively and are concerned for your welfare.
