I've had a lingering sprain in my left leg and I started to get worried about it. Dr. Mendelsohn compared the pain on my right and left side until we were both convinced it was just a sprain, even though it had been persistent. He set me up with some medication and two physical therapy appointments and talked me through how to manage my activity to not reinjure it over the holidays. I feel very relieved now.
December 23, 2019Lydia B. C.Verified patient
Dr. Mendelsohn and staff were all very friendly and helpful. I was able to walk in, get an xray, get results back and get treatment options all within 2 hours. The office is clean and peaceful. Would recommend to all!

Dr Mendelsohn is caring, thoughtful, and trustworthy. He never rushes to most extreme treatment. The physical therapy group connected to his office is excellent.

I generally stay away from doctors so the fact that I am actually writing a review for one is something. Dr. Mendelsohn defines who a doctor SHOULD be for me. Caring, interested in my issue and proactive in helping my issue. He actually picked up the phone himself in the middle of our appointment to check wait times for an X-Ray at another facility for me.
The staff is likewise so amazing and extremely helpful. Michael and Jay have been gems and so accommodating and detailed in their correspondence.
This place cannot be recommended enough!
January 14, 2019Nisha P.Verified patient
Dr. Mendelsohn was excellent in assessing what was wrong, truly listening to my issues, and providing a calm demeanor in establishing a plan for treatment. He did all of this in a short period of time. I also really appreciated the level of communication from his team in booking appointments, following up, and answering questions via email. Looking forward to my ongoing care with Dr. Mendelsohn and his team!
