Mark Ayzenberg MD

Summary

• Dr. Ayzenberg has two main mottos in his approach to patient care:
  "I don't treat pictures, I treat patients" - many people may have tears and other injuries on their x-rays and MRIs, but these very often do not require surgery. Treating the picture (ie. the MRI) is not in the best interest of the patient.
  
  "Less is more - less pills, less shots, less surgery whenever possible."
