Dr. Mandelin is always compassionate, professional and approachable!! Despite my depression and anxiety making me feel insignificant Dr. Mandelin is always non judgmental and never displays any type of bias. This is something I personally seeing diminished in the healthcare system today making me personally embarrassed to profess that I am a healthcare professional something I once took a great deal of pride in telling anyone who would listen . Dr. Mandelin has never forgotten and maintains MNFF core mission goal of providing the " IDEAL PATIENT EXPERIENCE" following the merge with NMH. Thank you Dr. Mandelin and God Bless you!!

I'm not sure if I can clarify any better than to say I was diagnosed with RA at 9yrs old, spent a few years under some care but, from 1982 until 2010, I had no care as I didn't trust any providers. No one, until Dr Mandelin, was able to balance a dosage of medication that gave me no side effects. I will never switch from Dr Mandelin!

Dr. Mandelin has been my rheumatologist for years now. He's very pleasant to talk to. He finds time to greet you before even getting to business which sets a nice tone for a comfortable dr/patient's dialogue. As always he listens to what I have to say, my concerns. He makes sure that we covered all the reasons for my visit and gives good medical advices. He's very professional and knowledgeable. I completely trust his judgment and expertise with my health care.
