His acclaimed career in medicine began after he earned his Medical Degree from Albert Szent-Gyorgi University in Hungary.

Beyond this experience, Dr. Saldin completed a neuroimaging fellowship at the Jacobs Neurological Institute and a fellowship in interventional pain medicine at the University of Virginia.

As an interventional pain management physician, Dr. Saldin focuses on the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of pain.
