What is Dr. Mark Mandelkern's specialty?
Dr. Mandelkern is a Nuclear Medicine Specialist near Los Angeles, CA. Nuclear Medicine Specialist has expertise in using the properties of radioactive atoms and molecules for the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases, as well as for medical research purposes.
