DR. PHILIP B. NEDELMAN

NEDELMAN, Dr. Philip B. Dr. Philip B. Nedelman, a dedicated physician and cherished member of the Braintree community, passed away peacefully on October 9, 2025, surrounded by family. At the age of 90, Phil's life was characterized by a steadfast commitment to caring for others, a love of adventure, and a genuine kindness that touched many lives. Phil retired from the Navy as a Lieutenant Commander and flight surgeon and began his career at South Shore Hospital where he spanned more than five decades, making him their longest-tenured medical professional at SSH to date. In 1968, he opened his own practice, Braintree Family Physician, where he served his patients and community for over fifty five years. Phil is survived by his wife, Dorothy O'Flaherty Nedelman, known to many as Charity, and his children: Mark Nedelman (Judie) of Florida, Gary Nedelman (Susan) of New Hampshire, Neil Nedelman (Janet) of Middleboro, and Kathryn Nedelman Herbst (Peter Jr.) of Braintree. His pride in his grandchildren-Emily D'Annolfo, Melissa Birt, Sophia Cummings, Lucy Nedelman, Abigail Herbst and William Herbst - was boundless, as was his love for his great-granddaughters, extended family and friends. His love for his family was eclipsed only by his love for his beloved Weimaraners. Family and friends are invited to celebrate the Doc's life at his funeral Service at Stanetsky Memorial Chapels, 475 Washington Street, CANTON, Massachusetts, on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, at 10 AM. Burial will follow at Blue Hill Cemetery in Braintree. A Shiva and gathering of remembrance will be held from 4 to 8 PM, at Leo's Events and Restaurant, 589 Granite Street, Braintree.
