One Of A Kind World-Class Care
The Andrews Medical Institute provides top-notch care in an "off the grid" location
You don’t have to be a starting pitcher or star quarterback to get celebrity-treatment health care. And you don’t have to travel to the east or west coast for the country’s top one-of-a-kind center focused on prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries.
Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine, founded in 2007 by internationally renowned orthopaedic surgeon James Andrews, M.D., in conjuction with Baptist Health Care, is a state-of-the-art, one-stop health care shop on Highway 98 in Gulf Breeze.
Heralded as “the only place in the world to offer surgery, diagnostic imaging, rehab and athletic performance training all in one facility,” the Institute has become the go-to place for athletes of all fitness — and fame — levels.
Some of the most famous figures in sports have come and gone without much fanfare. Which is precisely the point. They come to Andrews because it is “off the grid” in a somewhat unlikely location (as far as celebrities go anyway), and they can get top-notch care and recover privately from injuries without being bothered.
With a 26,000-square-foot Multispecialty Ambulatory Surgery Center, Outpatient Rehabilitation, Diagnostic Imaging Center, Athletic Performance Center, a Research and Education Institute and a multi-specialty office park for physicians — all on site — the center is somewhat of a one-stop shop for those looking to prevent or repair injuries and enhance physical performance.
Though Andrews is thrilled to continue to be the “go to” facility for elite celebrity athletes — including New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, golf great Jack Nicklaus, L.A. Angels first baseman Albert Pujols — it actually prefers to be known as the health care campus of choice for those looking to improve their lives by way of good health. Whether that means getting back to a professional sports field or simply getting back to your backyard garden, Andrews Institute likes to say it is about healing “the athlete in us all.”
