When I went to Badia center last year I had bad pain in my right elbow area. My motion was limited, I really could not extend my arm without pain. I wore an elbow brace for months until I had the simple surgery done at Badia center. The surgery corrected the issue I was having. One week later I was back to work. I will have some tendinitis once in a while. I have a small dot on my elbow, Dr. Badia and his staff is amazing.

An incredible experience with Dr. Badia. I learned a tremendous amount scientifically and personally. Thank you for allowing me to spend these days with such a great team. Susan is a genius. Thank you for being there for everything. I highly recommend her in every way. A world-class hand surgeon. #handsurgery #wristarthroscopy #miami #orthopedicsurgeon #wristsurgeon #shouldersurgeon

This is the second rotator cuff surgery that Dr. Badia has performed on me, and once again, the results are outstanding. I’m experiencing continuous improvement—no pain at all after the surgery, no need for pain medication, and I’m already well into recovery just a week later. I can only attribute this to Dr. Badia’s expertise and, of course, the excellent support of his entire team.

This center has a team like no other. They literally made me feel that I was in the right place, with the right doctor, with the right staff, at the right time. Dr. Badia repaired my torn labrum and I have had very, very, very minimal pain. He and his team (Susan, Jessie, Lisa, Angela, etc.) has made me feel loved, cared for and they showed deep concern. The office, facility, and staff is like no other that I've ever met. They literally go above and beyond for their patients.
Best regards,

Dr. Badia was fast and to the point! I wouldn’t trust anyone else. He has so much experience and you can tell as soon as you speak with him. I will return to the office soon to take off my cast and will be recovered quickly!
Response from the owner
Glad you are pleased. If i recall, you went to a general urgent care (or was it ER?) first which often ends up being waste of time. Family or ER physicians are not ortho trained and subtle fractures need expertise. So glad you did not need our surgical skills and you appreciate the punctual and efficient nature of our visits.... 1 year ago

Thanks to Dr. Badia and his awesome office and medical team! I was suffering from sharp electrical shock sensation when I would grab or touch any object. I had nerve and carpal tunnel surgery accomplished in my hand with Dr. Badia and his team. I would recommend anyone to him and his office. Dr. Badia has a great bed side manner as well as the best technically skilled surgeon hands. They all truly care about the patient. You feel good knowing you are in good hands, emotionally and physically. We traveled from Dominican Republic and would travel again if we ever need to see Dr. Badia for anyone in our family.

We were referred to Dr. Badia by a friend of one of our sons that had a paraglider accident and broke his arm and elbow badly, and after several operations by local traumatologists, he wasn’t getting anywhere, so somehow he found out about OrthoNow and his problem was solved.
Our family has a long history with Dr. Alejandro Badia, starting in 2014, when one of our sons had a terrible motorcycle accident in Ecuador, where we live, breaking his pelvic bone in two parts, broke his spleen, had pneumothorax, his left arm had an open fracture and the wrist was nearly destroyed.
Several surgeries after, actually I lost count, his spleen didn't have to be removed as the surgeon thought in the first place, his lung recuperated very well, his pelvis too however he was bedridden for over a month.
So we went one day to Dr. Badia for a checkup and evaluation, and three weeks later he had the operation and has full use of his arm and hand. Actually he’s an airline pilot.
Then my wife had her left rotator cuff with broken tendons, which were repaired by Dr. Badia on January 3rd, 2023 and has full movement and no pain.
In 2024 she had the same problem with her right rotator cuff, so on March 4th, 2025 she was operated and now has full use of the arm.
We certainly have faith on Dr. Badia as a great and experienced surgeon and would certainly recommend him to anybody that has a problem with the upper limbs.

Thank you for trusting us with your family. We are so glad both your wife and son have recovered their function. The mobility of her arm is due to not only Dr. Badias work but the work of an amazing rehab team and a patient who has really put in the work ! 8 years later and your son’s testimony is still one of our favorites. We love knowing he was able to continue his career as a pilot. We will always be here for you. 3 years ago
