What Patients Are Saying

He is the top Dr. For meniscus issues, and I was very happy to get in to see him.

I was referred to him by one of his colleagues at the same clinic. Apparently he performs a certain procedure that I might be a good candidate for. It seems he has way too many patients or he is working multiple jobs. It took 5 weeks to see him, he asked me to come back in 3 weeks after doing an MRI, but the first available time on his calendar was in 8 weeks! I have no idea how time sensitive the potential treatment is, but in any case, this is not acceptable.

I've seen Dr. Mandelbaum multiple times. I appreciate his care and concern; however, my last two visits, I brought up cost multiple times. I received one injection per knee the previous visit, and then all of a sudden he schedules me for 3 injections in 3 weeks. The communication between him and me, and him to the front desk was very poor the past few visits.

No personal risks were discussed. All doctors, not just this one, need much more attention to the personal patient, not just a general view of all patients being the same with the same risks and benefits regarding treatment. That would take more than just a few minutes to do. More time needed for doctor/ patient visit. Cedars may be becoming like a "clinic".

Nice MD but rather full of himself. Ageism very evident as he did not believe my life was affected by my injury; thought I was retired sitting at home all day when I work full time, enjoy many sports including skiing, rock climbing as well as dancing.

This is related to the doctor. His PA was great. He on the other hand was absent and could really care less. He mostly interacted with the PA during the 30 seconds he was in the room with me
