Patient Reviews
The following are reviews from patients of Dr. Wendel.
“Dr. Wendel takes the time to explain things vastly and transparently. Very impressed with him.”
– Mark F.
“Dr. Wendel is lovely. He doesn't rush through the appointment. Gives a thorough exam, listens to your questions and concerns. He askes questions and gives detailed explanations on the diagnosis and course of treatment. He has helped me with my back. He is now working with me on a shoulder issue. Dr. Wendel and his team are top-notch!”
– Teresa P.
“Dr. Wendal was attentive to my pain needs after a fall, which left lower back pain and struggling for relief. He assessed my symptoms through a cat scan and requested movements and believes a pinched nerve is an agitator. He carefully considered options to relieve and prescribed Gabapentin, with ibuprofen as needed. I'm praying it works.”
– Eileen R.
“Very professional and concerned about my needs.”
– Barry B.
“Dr. Wendel was great, and he was professional and personable. My 15-year-old daughter was his patient for a procedure. He answered all of our questions and explained what he is doing every step of the way. It made my daughter's experience very positive.”
– Evelyn O.
“Very helpful. Took time to explain things to me. A real feeling Dr. Wendel cared for you and not an in and out and onto the next patient.”
– Christine C.
“I was seen very quickly after arriving and met Michele, Dr. Wendel’s Assistant; she gave me instructions about changing. Dr. Wendel came in and talked about my problem and history; he then examined me and confirmed that an injection would probe the best procedure and why. I agreed, and Dr. Wendel performed the process; he finished, and we talked about resuming physical therapy and exercising, and he said to wait about a week; finally he said to call Gary Racich at the Bedminster office.”
– John N.
“Efficient, personable and professional.”
– Debbie G.
“Excellent.”
– Mary K.

– John H.
“He is a beautiful doctor.”
– Barbara D.
“Well done.”
– Fred K.
“Everyone in the office was pleasant. Dr. Wendell was very thorough and attentive. Hardly any wait times. Very efficiently run. I highly recommend this practice. Having a walk-in clinic on a Saturday is an excellent service to patients with emergencies.”
– Linda D.
“Dr. Wendel was wonderful. Immediately put me at ease. He took the time to explain everything to me and calm my fears. He gave my knee a thorough examination and then talked to me in terms I could understand. He told me my options, and even though I was still in pain when I left I felt much better mentally, and I was confident in the course of action Dr. Wendel suggested. The entire staff was professional and compassionate. I would highly recommend Tri-County Orthopedics and Dr. Wendel!”
– Margaret G.
“Dr. Ian Wendel was great with Amanda. However, we signed in at 4:03 and were seen at 6:55 pm. There weren’t that many patients there — less than 5 in the waiting room at all times. I would never use the clinic again for this reason.”
– Amanda F.
“Dr. Wendel listened well and seemed like an excellent diagnostician. He helped discuss meds and prescribed PT as the first step regarding an apparent pinched nerve in my neck.”
– Susan K.
“Dr. Wendel is professional yet very caring. He only wants his patients to feel better and works toward that goal.”
– Sheila T.
“Dr. Wendel is an excellent doctor, and more importantly, he talks to you. By that I mean that he will explain what he can help you with and what he cannot.”
– Jack S.
“My provider, Dr. Wendel was professional and courteous. I believe the staff was also very professional and greeted me with a warm smile.”
– Sonia A.
“The doctor was thorough and sufficiently conservative in his approach which was appropriate and appreciated. We agreed on a course of treatment and an alternative plan if that is not productive.”
– Janet P.
“Dr. Wendel listened well. I needed to walk my daughter down the aisle, and he suggested pain mitigation options that suited the urgent timing. The procedure was painless.”
– Ian W.

– Stephanie S.
