DR. JUSTIN BRAZEAL, MD

Orthopedic Surgeon

Dr. Brazeal is a member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of '01. He went on to UT Southwestern Medical School, and then completed his orthopedic training and fellowship in shoulder and elbow surgery at UT Health Science Center San Antonio where he was Chief Administrative Resident. Dr. Brazeal joined St. Joseph Orthopaedic Associates in 2012. Dr. Brazeal and his wife have two sons.


What I like about Dr. Brazeal was the time he took with me. He sat down and explained everything. After my first operation I reinjured myself and he guided me through options and treatments for reconstruction. Years later and my shoulder is doing great. I’ve been back doing the things I love and that’s thanks to Dr. Brazeal.

Dr. Brazeal is very personable, kind, and knowledgeable. He did a great job of helping me understand my injury and walking me through the different treatment options available.

I was waking up crying from the pain. I didn’t even know what had happened. My shoulder was killing me. When I talked to Dr. Brazeal he immediately had a solution and within hours he had me all taken care of. He explained my options and also sat down to help me weigh out the different paths to take.

Dr. Brazeal helped me so much! His compassion for my injury was the most notable about my experience. My ankle has improved so much due to his attention to detail and dedication to getting me back in my everyday life! Getting back to the gym was difficult, but with his help, I was able to recover and become stronger than before. His ability to share knowledge on the procedures and recovery was uncanny, and I can’t express how much I appreciate his patience and professionalism!
