His practice expertise includes the minimally invasive and reconstructive treatment of the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and ankle. As a former collegiate athlete, Dr. Hendel has a unique understanding of the challenges and demands encountered by athletes at all levels and ages.
Dr. Hendel is a former assistant team physician for the National Football League (NFL) New York Giants. During his surgical residency and fellowship, he was involved in the care of players of the New York Mets, New York Rangers, New York Knicks, New York Red Bulls, Brooklyn Nets, and the Professional Golfers' Association (PGA). Dr. Hendel has authored numerous peer-reviewed articles, including those published in the 'Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery' and 'Bone and Joint Surgery.'
We encourage all athletes, coaches, parents, trainers, and community members to join us! This is an excellent opportunity to meet an orthopedic provider in our community and for student-athletes to understand the benefits of strength training, the risk of overtraining, and injury prevention information.
