Dr. Andrea Staneata is a board certified Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation physician and is fellowship trained in interventional spine and pain management, and is now practicing at Cape Fear Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, in North Carolina. 


She has a compelling story: after medical school and two years of orthopedics residency in Romania, she immigrated with her then husband to the united states by winning a lottery sponsored by the romanian government. 


Upon relocating to the United States, she went on to complete her Internship and Residency in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at East Carolina University’s Brody School of Medicine, followed by a fellowship in Interventional Spine & Pain management at OrthoCarolina in Winston Salem, North Carolina.


She is the coauthor of the anthology Warrior Women: A Sisterhood of Immigrants, and in her chapter she details her story of burnout, depression/anxiety, and an abusive marriage she courageously left while her children were young. She has a passion for sharing her story so that others can learn from her experience.
