Dr. Marra is a first-rate physician who is outstanding in his field, as well as very sympathetic to patient's needs. He made an excellent impression even during the initial 5 minutes of my 1st appt, when I was in excruciating pain. He is excellent at explaining the situation and quick to come up with a "game plan". I originally went to a Orthopedic Surgeon affiliated with a competing hospital near my home, who did not impress, and was SO happy I switched to Dr. Marra at NMH. He was certainly worth the 1 hour commute!

His compassion and knowledge are only surpassed by his surgical skills. He is what modern day medicine should look like across the board.

Dr. Marra did an outstanding job with my shoulder replacement surgery. His explanation of the procedures before and after surgery were clear and concise and all my questions were answered. He gets rave reviews from US News and World Report, all which were highly justified.

Dr Marra and his PA Amy were very thorough on exam and requested more tests to better assess the pain and weakness in my arm, to help achieve the best outcome. I feel confident they will help me get the strength back in my arm.

Professionalism Took time answering all my questions His examination was indepth. He went over the course of treatment or procedures scheduled. He gave me and idea of the treatments I'll receive, and the time table for the injections, and his over all goal at the conclusion of the treatments/injections. It was determined I needed additional x-rays, I was able to get the needed x-rays the same day while at the facility after seeing my physician

Dr. Marra is the best Surgeon in Chicago and performs damn near miracles on a regular basis. You should keep him on staff as long as you plan to offer orthopedic care.
