Groupwise summary statistics for all dependent variables in R using dplyr

I am trying to generate groupwise (hearing - my independent variable, so HL and NH are the two groups) summary statistics (mean, sd, min, max, standard error etc. ) for each of the 10 dependent variables. I was able to do this for one variable (R_PTA) using these 2 codes:

1.

RightPTA <- mydata %>% group_by(NHL) %>% summarise(n=length(R_PTA), mean_R_PTA=mean(R_PTA), sd_R_PTA=sd(R_PTA), se_R_PTA=sd(R_PTA)/sqrt(length(R_PTA)), min_R_PTA=min(R_PTA), max_R_PTA=max(R_PTA))

2.

mydata
mean<-tapply(mydata$R_PTA, mydata$NHL, mean)
mean
sd<-tapply(mydata$R_PTA, mydata$NHL, sd)
sd
median<-tapply(mydata$R_PTA, mydata$NHL, median)
median
max<-tapply(mydata$R_PTA, mydata$NHL, max)
max
min<-tapply(mydata$R_PTA, mydata$NHL, min)
min
cbind(mean, sd, median, max, min)
round(cbind(mean, sd, median, max, min), digits = 1)
t1<-round(cbind(mean, sd, median, max, min), digits = 1)
t1

Here is the output:

RightearPTA
   mean  sd median  max min
HL 26.9 7.3   27.5 37.5 8.8
NH 11.6 4.1   12.5 16.2 2.5

I want the same exact thing for all the remaining 9 variables (L_PTA, B_PTA etc.) but in one shot if possible. Is there no way to do this? Do I have to code for each single dependent variable? I am sure its out there, but I cant find it! Any hep would be appreciated!!

Consider a base R solution with by (the object-oriented wrapper to tapply to subset dataframe into factor groups) and nested sapply (to build matrix of stats). Below demonstrates with random, seeded data for 10 stats columns:

set.seed(88)

df <- data.frame(
  GROUP = sapply(seq(50), function(i) sample(c("NH", "HL"), 1, replace=TRUE)),
  STAT1 = rnorm(50)*100,
  STAT2 = rnorm(50),
  STAT3 = runif(50)*100,
  STAT4 = runif(50),
  STAT5 = rgamma(50, shape = 2)*100,
  STAT6 = rgamma(50, shape = 2),
  STAT7 = rpois(50, lambda = 100)*100,
  STAT8 = rpois(50, lambda = 100),
  STAT9 = rexp(50, rate = 1)*100,
  STAT10 = rexp(50, rate = 1)
)

dfList <- by(df, df$GROUP, FUN = function(d)
                sapply(d[2:ncol(d)], function(i) 
                  c(mean = mean(i, na.rm=TRUE),
                    sd = sd(i, na.rm=TRUE),
                    median = median(i, na.rm=TRUE),
                    min = min(i, na.rm=TRUE),
                    max = max(i, na.rm=TRUE)
                  )
                )
            )

Output
