About Dr. Mandry

Dr. Jose M. Mandry has served as a cornerstone of endocrine care in Central Florida for over three decades. After completing his Internal Medicine residency at St. Vincent's Medical Center (a Yale University affiliate) and his fellowship in Endocrinology and Metabolism at Roger Williams Medical Center / Rhode Island Hospital (Brown University affiliates), he dedicated his career to combining compassionate, personalized patient care with groundbreaking clinical research.

As founder of West Orange Endocrinology and Principal Investigator at its Research Center, Dr. Mandry has led more than 60 Phase II–IV clinical trials, giving his patients direct access to therapies years before they reach commercial markets — while continuing to see patients himself, every week, in Ocoee.
