Brandon C. Maisel, D.O.
Orthopedic Surgery
If your shoulder isn’t feeling quite right after an intense pickleball match, turn to Brandon C. Maisel, D.O. He is a non-operative sports medicine physician with Gelb Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center in Boca Raton.
Dr. Maisel treats acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries including bone, joint, ligament, muscle and tendon injuries. To further assess your injury, he may utilize diagnostic ultrasound.
“Ultrasound allows me to expand the physical examination and further evaluate what’s going on,” says Dr. Maisel.
Dr. Maisel’s expertise also includes non-operative treatment of peripheral nerve injuries (such as carpal tunnel syndrome), osteoarthritis management, concussion management and clearance, sports physicals, sports-related spine injuries and overall evaluation of an injured athlete.
He works closely alongside Howard Gelb, M.D., physical therapists and other health-related healthcare providers to provide well-rounded orthopedic care. “Dr. Gelb and I work hand in hand,” he says. “If conservative measures fail or surgery is required, I will consult with Dr. Gelb to develop an appropriate treatment plan.”
Patients range in age from young adolescents to adults. They vary from student athletes to weekend warriors. “The most rewarding part of my job is when a patient comes in with pain and we’re able to get to the root of it,” says Dr. Maisel. “Then they can return to what they enjoy doing whether that be gardening at home or being out on the golf course. I want my patients to get back to what they love to do!”
Dr. Maisel grew up right here in Boca Raton. He completed his sports medicine fellowship at the Andrews Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Center in Birmingham, Alabama. He is board certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation as well as holds a Certificate of Added Qualifications in Sports Medicine. He completed his undergraduate degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Central Florida. He received his osteopathic degree from Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine. He subsequently completed his Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation residency at SUNY Downstate Medical Center.
Now, he’s back home. “I’m glad to be back and ready to serve my community!”
