Abbe Mendlowitz

Dr. Abbe Mendlowitz was born in Washington, DC, and grew up in Silver Spring, Maryland. As a teenager, he studied in Jerusalem at Yeshivas Kol Torah under Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, zt”l, and later received semichah from Rav Yaakov Yitzchok Ruderman, zt”l, at Ner Israel in Baltimore, Maryland. He earned his MD at the University of Maryland Medical School and completed diagnostic radiology training and board certification at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. He was an early pioneer of teleradiology, introducing remote imaging to his practice at a time when the technology was still developing.

He and his wife, Adena, returned to his hometown to raise seven children. They now make their home in Ramat Beit Shemesh, where he continues to balance medicine, Torah study, and the ongoing search for his reading glasses.
