Board certified neurologist Mark Mandelbaum, M.D., has joined FirstHealth of the Carolinas and will see patients at the FirstHealth specialty clinic located at 3716 Morganton Road in Fayetteville.
Dr. Mandelbaum earned his bachelor’s degree at Brooklyn College in Brooklyn, New York and
went on to receive his medical degree from the University of Oklahoma. He completed his
medical internship at the University of Oklahoma before attending a neurology residency at the
University of Iowa.
“I’ve always been interested in psychology and how the brain worked,” Dr. Mandelbaum said in a press release. “I felt I could apply that interest in medicine and neurology.”
Prior to joining FirstHealth, he worked at the Hannibal Clinic in Hannibal Missouri. Earlier in
his career, Dr. Mandelbaum worked at clinics in North Carolina, including Blue Ridge
Neurology in Morganton. Originally from Brooklyn, New York, he and his wife, Christine,
moved back to North Carolina to be closer to their first grandchild.
