Dr. Steven Mendelsohn graduated medical school at the age of 23 and became the managing partner of Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology in 1992, at 36-years-old. But he considers his real accomplishments to be his family and six kids.
Mendelsohn’s life’s direction and mission was radically altered when his mother, living in Pittsburgh, passed away at age 65, just four months after being diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. For years, she did everything she was supposed to do – annual mammograms, breast sonograms, and clinical breast examinations. Innumerable repeated errors and sloppiness eliminated her chance for being cured. This created the driving mission for Mendelsohn and subsequently for the entire Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology practice.
