About Alex Behar, MD
Alex Behar, MD, a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician specializing in sports medicine at Endeavor Health, helps patients recover from injury and return to the activities they love. He treats a wide range of conditions across all stages of life, from pediatric to geriatric patients, with a focus on restoring functional ability. Dr. Behar takes a holistic, team-based approach, working closely with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan.
My endeavor
My endeavor is to be able to give patients the best care possible and make sure that they feel comfortable with the plan that we have outlined together as one unit.
Care philosophy
I treat patients to get them back to their functional baseline and be independent in the activities they love to do—whether that’s playing basketball, playing golf or walking around the block with family. I believe the most holistic approach is the best way to treat them.
