Dr Konigsberg made the experience for my son, who broke his arm extraordinarily manageable. He is fantastic at making a cast!! So much so that my son healed sooner than expected. Every visit was informative and pleasant. Plus, hisShow more staff was extremely knowledgeable and nothing short of supportive. I highly recommend working with this office whenever you might need tender, loving care over breaking a limb.
They had an appointment for the same day I called. They were great with my daughter, who was there for a fracture on her thumb, which ended up not being a fracture. The doctor was extremely knowledgeable and didn’t make me doubt tShow morehe second opinion once. I even made an appointment for my other daughter on an unrelated matter.

Reviews
Dr Konigsberg was able to immediately diagnose a bone infection in my son’s arm, that two other doctors missed. He is thorough, empathetic, knowledgeable and cares about his patients. I would highly recommend and I am very thankful for Dr Konigsberg’s expertise!
Great relating to the patient (my son) and making him feel comfortable and very transparent on the entire process…put my sons mind at complete ease!
I have trusted Dr. Konigsberg with my son's for years. My son's both play baseball and have had arm injury. He is thorough in explaining treatment and prevention.
By far the worst physician experience I ever had. The doctor had no bedside manner—he was dismissive, condescending, and seemed completely uninterested in helping. My son was clearly in pain, yet he repeatedly made him bend over despite his discomfort. When my son bent his knees to lessen the pain, the doctor sarcastically said, "Come on kid, we can do this all day." It was unnecessary, insensitive, and unprofessional. He repeatedly interrupted me before I could answer his questions, stopped during the exam to respond to a text message on his phone, and rushed through the entire visit. Most concerning, after reviewing the X-rays and recommending physical therapy, he refused to explain the findings, saying there was a problem but "we don't have time to discuss it." If you're looking for a physician who is compassionate, respectful, and willing to explain your child's condition, look elsewhere. I would not recommend this practice to any family.
Dr. Konigsberg was fine with my 2 year old (whose feet have been going inward, with one being collapsed), but offered little guidance after telling me her x-rays looked good. I asked questions about orthotics which her PT had been inquiring about, and wanted to know at the least if they'd be "harmful" if not helpful to try out. HIs response continued to be variations on, "have her seen by a neurologist." I'm open to seeing a neurologist, but the way he kept saying it ("repeat after me, see a neurologist and then come back to me"), had me feeling belittled for wanting more answers, clarity, and advice going forward. To demonstrate his point (and i guess to reassure me?) that he knows what he's talking about, he said something to the effect of "i've been doing this for 26+ years, and have seen children with half a leg walking better than she does." I know (or hope) it wasn't meant to be offensive, but there's a way to say things. A rephrasing perhaps with the addition of, "i know you're concerned" would have gone a long way. Take the time to go over what the x-ray actually shows, etc. Such a bummer. Left me with more questions than answers including this burning one: Do they offer Bedside Manner 101 classes at med school!?
I highly recommend Dr Konigsberg. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and takes the time to listen to his patients. He explains everything clearly and makes you feel comfortable and confident in your care. His expertise and compassionate approach make him an outstanding physician.
Dr. Konigsberg is great! We seen him a few times for various sports injuries. I would highly recommend him! His staff is super friendly as well!
Dr Konigsberg was so wonderful with my daughter. She was laughing the whole visit - even as she was getting her cast on. Great bedside manner.
Took my daughter there, Dr was great.
I am extremely disappointed with our experience at this practice. We scheduled an appointment to evaluate concerns about our 2-year-old's walking and running, hoping for a thorough assessment and guidance. Instead, we left feeling dismissed, rushed, and deeply uncomfortable. From the moment the doctor entered the room, his demeanor was abrupt and unwelcoming. The visit lasted barely 10 minutes, giving us little opportunity to discuss our concerns or ask questions. During the examination, he forcefully rolled our son onto his stomach without taking a gentle, child-centered approach. This startled our toddler, who cried for the remainder of the visit, making it nearly impossible to complete a meaningful evaluation. What was most disappointing was how our concerns as parents were handled. Rather than listening or explaining his assessment with empathy, the doctor appeared dismissive and made comments implying that his "28 years of practice" should outweigh our concerns, even suggesting that if we wanted a second opinion, we were free to seek one. Experience is valuable, but it should never replace respectful communication or a willingness to listen to a parent's observations. Parents seek medical care because we are advocating for our children, not because we want to challenge a physician's expertise. We deserve to be treated with professionalism, compassion, and respect. Unfortunately, this experience fell far short of those expectations, and we will be seeking care elsewhere. I cannot recommend this provider based on our experience.
We were seen shortly after we arrived. The staff was friendly & Dr. Konigsberg was wonderful with my special needs daughter.

Very thoughtful and caring. Excellent doctor. Goes above and beyond. Highly recommend.
Dr. Konigsberg doesn't even deserve 1 star. Terrible doctor! Do not recommend and will never go back. I think he took less than a minute to address my son's issue. He came in the office sat down said 2 words got up and left as I was asking a question. I also had additional questions. He could careless. Can't wait to see how much they bill my insurance. What a joke this doctor is.
They had an appointment for the same day I called. They were great with my daughter, who was there for a fracture on her thumb, which ended up not being a fracture.

We had great experience, the doctor was really helpful and stuff was super nice .
The staff at the office were very friendly and helpful with the check in process and getting us in to see Dr. Konigsberg. The doctor himself was very helpful and patient dealing with my 11-year old and trying to get information on his condition. Would definitely recommend the practice.
My daughter recently broke her ring finger in a martial arts tournament and we went to Dr. Konigsberg. Very friendly and informative doctor who let our daughter know what she could and couldn’t do with the her healing cast in place. Dr. K was recommended from a co-worker and I’m glad we went to see him. Professional staff and clean facility.
The best pediatric orthopedic! The office staff is also very polite and helpful. They are a great office!
Being told your child broke a bone and needing to follow up with a specialist is not easy, however, Dr. Konigsberg was kind, reassuring and amazing with our daughter. Staff were also great, his assistant was very sweet. Filling out new patient form was easy. Overall great experience.
Amazing
If I could leave 10 stars I would.. I’d even leave more! Everything from the office staff, to wait time to Dr Konigsberg himself is absolutely fantastic! He’s so calming, kind, and funny! This is our 2nd time around with him… apparently my daughter likes to break things this time of year lol but she doesn’t mind because she enjoys seeing him lol I couldn’t recommend him more!
Very nice and answered all the questions I asked.
Best experience.! Dr David was great! Explained everything and what was needed. So happy I was able to fine there office. Thank you!
We have been patients of Dr. K for years. He takes his time with us, listens, and makes sure all our questions are addressed. And he is also a lovely human!
The visit to Dr. Konigsberg's office was a sigh of relief and a pleasant experience. The entire staff was excellent with minimal waiting time and Dr. Konigsberg himself was excellent with my son and put us both at ease. I have already recommended his office to others.
Great bedside manner, quick and informative appointment!
Very caring, knowledgeable staff
Definitely the best doctor in his field. Not just his skill but his bed side manner is great for the kids and the parents. I always recommend him to anyone who needs pediatric orthopedics. Thank you Dr. Konigsberg.
Great office and great dr! They were able to squeeze us in right away.
