I was referred to Dr. Marra by another orthopedic surgeon who said “if you were my son I would tell you to go with Dr. Marra. Also my surgery was “a big repair”. One that I don’t think all doctors are capable of executing.

He also was most caring and listened to my needs and concerns. He did not put any pressure on me to make a decision for surgery or not. When I asked if I could get my (original ) shift cut back so I could have use of my fingers he asked them to make me a new, removable, washable splint!!!

Dr Marra took the time to recommend follow up with a different MD for a medical problem I didn’t even realize I had. He goes above and beyond addressing the shoulder issues. He is very knowledgeable, professional, kind and treats the whole person.

Dr. Marra is very concerned with my recovery from the revision surgery he performed on my shoulder recently. He was very happy to see the progress that I’ve been able to make at this point.

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.
