"Dr. Hendler spoke to me about my low platelets and what he decided to do lowering the amount of chemo I was given yesterday at my infusion."

"I could NEVER find a kinder hematologist! Dr. Hendler is incredible!!
I happened to ask him about a stomach issue I had. Completely out of the realm of his specialty. He ordered a sonogram of my abdomen.
As if that wasn’t enough. In addition. He’ll ask me. “Have you had a mammogram or colonoscopy done?”
☑️ I’m thinking to myself. 🤔. He a hematologist. Why is he asking me?
Doctor Hendler is AMAZING!! You should feel blessed if he has room in his schedule to take you on as a new patient.
I sound partial. I am. I’ve had serious problems with my kidneys. Hence, I see him often. It affects my body from producing the appropriate amount of hemoglobin.
Dr. Hendler is on TOP of everything!!!!"

"My experiences over the past 3 years have been nothing but great. The entire staff is so caring and empathetic. Dr. Hendler in particular has a calm, intelligent demeanor. He explains everything completely, in layman's terms. My recent visit was also with his PA, D. Singh, who was exceptional. She took her time, and really listened and empathized. Dr. Singh is a great asset to an already outstanding practice!"
