Dr. Feldman earned his B.A. in Chemistry at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. and went on to New York University School of Medicine in New York City.

He completed his internship in internal medicine at the New York Hospital - Cornell Medical Center, New York City and also did his residency there with clinical rotations at Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. From there, Dr. Feldman completed a residency in diagnostic radiology at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston where he was appointed chief resident.

He is board certified in both internal medicine and radiology.

Dr. Feldman was appointed Assistant Professor in the radiology department at Medical University of South Carolina before accepting a position as Senior Associate Director for Clinical Development at Berlex Laboratories in New Jersey where he was later promoted to Director of Clinical Development. In this capacity he designed and managed large multi-center clinical research trials at many university medical centers around the U.S. and in Europe.

In 2002, Dr. Feldman moved to Palm Beach Gardens, Fl. and was an attending Radiologist with Advanced Imaging Associates. Now, Dr. Feldman has brought his depth and knowledge to Coastline Imaging.

"I have several goals here at Coastline Imaging," said Dr. Feldman. "I want to improve our spectrum of services to help both patients and physicians. I want to increase the level of our commitment to customer service, while raising the quality of our clinical practice even further."

Dr. Feldman is at Coastline Imaging on a full-time basis, providing fast and effective interpretation of all diagnostic tests performed at the facility.

Utilizing his considerable knowledge and expertise, Dr. Feldman also hopes to bring new services to area patients and doctors, including providing imaging for small joints like hands and feet; abdominal and pelvic imaging including gynecological and specialized bile and pancreatic duct images; and, MRA imaging of blood vessels.

Having participated in high-level cooperative research trials at more than 20 different universities across the country and having partnered with many experts in his field, Dr. Feldman has developed the expertise to utilize the latest technologies available and he hopes to implement this knowledge into his work at Coastline Imaging.
