With science continually fueling new knowledge about the disease as well as a growing list of effective treatment options, Dr. Hendin feels his work with MS and MS patients fulfills his life’s mission: to live with purpose in a way that requires him to constantly learn and grow in the service of others. His philosophy is to take the best care he can of each individual patient, dealing comprehensively with the issues of MS from diagnosis through the course of the disease, with compassion and the overarching goal of delaying and reducing long-term disability. When he is not working, Dr. Hendin enjoys traveling and spending time with his wife, three grown children (including fellow Center for Neurology and Spine neurologist and MS expert Lori Hendin Travis), and his 16 grandchildren.
