His patients have excellent experiences with him, one stating, “Dr. Mandelbaum was the second surgeon we went to for a consultation after my son suffered a torn meniscus. His extensive knowledge of soccer athletes in particular, as well as his positive demeanor, were what sold us on having him do the surgery. The communication from his office was consistent and encouraging throughout the process. He held my son to a high standard for his rehab and made sure he was doing the work he needed to do to get back on the pitch. He was cleared to return to playing just over 6 weeks post-op. We could not be happier with Dr. Mandelbaum and will refer him to all our friends and family.”
Orthopaedics is the medical specialty that focuses on injuries and diseases of your body’s musculoskeletal system. This complex system, which includes your bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves, allows you to move, work, and be active. While orthopaedic surgeons are familiar with all aspects of the musculoskeletal system, many orthopaedists specialize in certain areas, such as the foot and ankle, spine, shoulder, hand, hip or knee. As a surgeon, Dr. Mandelbaum is trained to assess, diagnose, prevent, and treat sports injuries in patients of all ages, and refer those patients to further services if needed.
With over four decades of experience in the field, Dr. Mandelbaum has treated thousands of patients. He has been awarded and recognized numerous times throughout his career, including being listed as a “Super Doctor” in Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Surgery in 2016, 2017, and 2018.
