Andrew Flanagan, DO

I specialize in emergency medicine, a discipline that values teamwork, calm decision-making under pressure, and the ability to provide care to anyone in need. The intricate blend of general medicine, critical care, and collaborative efforts to navigate patients through their most challenging times renders each shift immensely rewarding.

Recognizing the demanding pace of the emergency room, where patients often meet their caregivers for the first and only time, I ensure each interaction is personal and thorough, addressing concerns with attentive compassion. By cultivating a reassuring environment amidst the urgency of the emergency department, I fosters trust and clarity, providing patients with a sense of calm.

In the emergency department, I adeptly manage a broad array of conditions, from chest pain and shortness of breath to urgent issues like stroke symptoms and severe allergic reactions. I guide patients through the necessary next steps for their recovery, whether it involves connecting with specialists, pursuing outpatient testing, or receiving home-based supportive care.

With a focus on delivering safe, efficient care, I perform procedures such as laceration repair, abscess drainage, splinting, and management of high-acuity situations requiring airway support and urgent vascular access.
