He received his undergraduate degree at Purdue University and graduated Phi Beta Kappa. Dr. Andrews completed his fellowship training at John Hopkins Hospital in joint reconstruction.

patient testimonials
“Dr Andrews did double hip replacements on my husband in 2012. He is very knowledgeable and both times we went in for surgery it was a great experience. I would recommend him”
“Dr. Scott Andrews did a knee replacement on me on 11/2014. And he did a great job. I feel that he is one of the top surgeons in his field. I had my other knee done at Rush in Chicago 5 years ago, and I feel that Dr. Andrews is a far better surgeon than the other one that worked on me at rush. I have told everyone i know about what a great job he did, and i would recommend him in the highest regard. If you are looking for a top performer he is your man.”
