Patient Stories: Patient Stories

I met Dr. Martin Koenigsberg around January of 2014 while I was looking for a General Practitioner. I am so glad I did, and it would be remiss for me not to share my story, in case he can help anyone else who may be suffering out there.

I happened upon Dr. Koenigsberg randomly, and went in to meet him to see if he could figure out the cause of my pains. I was having severe migraines, sensitivity to light, dizziness, pains in my body, among other ailments. It was such a random grouping of symptoms, that the countless Neurologists, Specialists, Doctors, etc. all but said it was Psychosomatic, or all in my head. I went over my symptoms with Dr. Koenigsberg, and he told me, ‘I think I have an idea as to what it might be, but I want to be 100% sure, and I don’t want to cause you any unnecessary stress by speculating. We’re going to find out today if this is the right path to pursue.” And with that, he made a phone call and got me in immediately for an MRI. Less than 24 hours later, I was back in his office and he had the MRI results in his hand. ‘Chiari I Malformation’, he said, ‘I knew it’. I had never, ever heard of the condition before, but it is a birth defect, so all of those other doctors I saw all missed it, and Dr. Koenigsberg, in less than 24 hours after meeting him, solved this mystery of my health I had suffered from for YEARS.

I required 11 hour Brain surgery or I would have been paralyzed. Any trauma to my Brain or Spine could have killed me as well, and I walked around for 28 years not knowing I had this condition...SCARY! I now have rods and screws in my Neck, and a fusion of my Brain and my Spine, but I HAVE MY LIFE BACK.

 I am telling you, if you have a medical condition that you cannot solve, you will not meet a more competent, determined doctor than Dr. Martin Koenigsberg. He WILL get to the bottom of it. He is my personal Dr. House…I have spoken first-hand with other patients that he has saved- from finding cancerous lumps that went unnoticed by others, to diagnosing rare diseases (and another Chiari patient- which is EXTREMELY rare). He is kind, caring, and will fight for you. He gave me his personal contact information in case I ever had an after-hours emergency, and told me to never, ever, hesitate in contacting him. He is so dedicated to his patients, and I know he has worked tirelessly to help patients get the most out of their insurance benefits when insurance refuses to pay. I want to make sure he gets the recognition he deserves, because he saved my life.

While I was waiting for my surgery to be approved by insurance, I ended up in a wheelchair due to the degeneration of my spine and Craniocervical Instability that made it extremely painful to stand. I have no doubts in my mind that if I had not met Dr. Martin Koenigsberg, I would have ended up in a wheelchair permanently and had no answers to my condition. I SWEAR by Dr. K. He is not only an amazing doctor, he has become a fast friend as well. I would, and have, trusted Dr. Koenigsberg’s expertise with my life. I hope that if you are reading this, and unsure if anyone can help you, that you will take the chance I did and let Dr. Martin Koenigsberg change your life.
