my child is only 4 weeks old but I enjoy this office so far.
was there for a injured finger. wish ears were checked
Dr. Koenig is so thorough, understanding, and caring. I love when my children get to see him!
he did a great job talking directly with my son and asking questions that were easy for a 9yr old the understand.
i never had any problems with any of the Doctor's.
it's always fun to see my son's doctor. Nurse and doctor are really nice and kind.
The providers at this office were quick and polite. The doctor made sure to go over any questions I had concerning my child. I switched to this office because of issues we had at a AHN office.
always satisfied with care and information given by CCP RIDC
excellent care
Great facility and caring doctors. I have been bringing my son here for his medical needs since birth.
first time meeting Dr. Koenig he was great and very informative.
Dr Koenig always gives balanced information that allows me as a parent to choose the best option for my child/family.
I have 4 boys that have all been seen at ccp Allegheny Pediatrics ridc. 3 are still currently seen by Dr.Koenig. He's the best! He's helped me & my family to have a home when homelessness was near he is so good with my kids and just a sweet person I can tell outside of the office !!!
Dr. Koenig was very patient and caring. He was very comprehensive in his discussion and was very accommodating with our requests for forms. We would highly recommend him and the clinic.
Dr Koenig and the whole staff are very efficient. We always have gotten a same day appointment every single time we've had a medical concern during office hours.
Dr. Koenig was terrific.
Excellent doctor who listens and communicates very well with my son and me (mother).
We just adore Dr. Koenig, he is the only doctor I want my children seeing.
always a good experience. always feel that i'm being heard and that my son is getting the most appropriate care.
very friendly, knowledgeable
always wonderful care from this practice. dr koenig was wonderful providing an appropriate yearly eval for an 18 ur old. discussed important issues but in a very professional manner and my son responds very well to him. very thankful for his input.
Dr. Koenig is great. He has always been there when we need him. He knows my sons heart condition and has been his doctor since birth.
always nice and helpful
Dr K is an EXCELLENT doctor. He is wonderful with my daughter and easy to talk to. He is so knowledgeable and has the perfect mannerisms to work with children and parents.
I appreciate that we have Dr Koenig for the kids primary care doctor. He makes sure to take the time to discuss school and sports along with health evaluation
Dr. Koenig is wonderful! he is always kind and willing to discuss my new parent questions with me! we feel very comfortable with him, the nurses, the office staff and the other physicians in the practice!
Great Care
Very good Doctor, and team at CCP. Always their when you need them.
great provider
we really like our child's dr.
Dr. Koenig, nurses and staff are wonderful. They make my children feel at ease. They are easy to talk to and listen to me and my children. They are also very prompt and kind.
Doctor is knowledgeable, attentive, and observant. Nursing and reception staff are on top of their work and very skilled at performing their jobs.
Dr. Koenig always spends a lot of time with us and answers any questions I OR my kids have.
We were seen right away and the Doctor took our concerns seriously.He took extra time to talk to my son about his job and his summer so far.
Dr. Koenig goes beyond what is required for a visit, not only providing good care and advice, but asking about my other children that he treated previously. He makes us feel like he knows the family, and is interested. He is very patient, and treats my son with respect. He respectifully speaks directly to my son, gives him time to respond to questions, and gives me time to ask additional questions. I appreciate that he gives advice that I may have already given to my child so that he "hears" it from someone other than Mom.
Dr. Koenig is an excellent doctor. He has cared for my children for the past 20 years. I hope that someone actually reads these comments and knows just what a "special" and "caring" doctor he is and how much dedication he puts into his job every time he sees the children. My boys have always felt comfortable and respected Dr. Koenig's opinion and the things that he talked about with them. Please, please, please, let him know how much we appreciate his services and care throughout the years.
always very informative and respectful
when my son was a baby. he had diaper cream on his butt rash. this dr checked his rash then out his finger in my sons mouth. not a fan
Mark Koenig has been my families pediatrician for decades, never once a bad experience with either of my children or any of my siblings. 10/10 would recommend. he's an amazing listener and really takes the time to decide what's best for the child in his care.
Doctor K always makes a point to address any concerns quickly while considering the young patient in the room. He always speaks to my sons directly which both calms them and is probably a better indicator, evaluative method.
Dr. Koenig excellent provider! I've brought all three of my sons to him & he has given all of them Excellent care! He is kind, caring & personable.
Our previous care provider left the practice and we have been seeing Dr. Koenig since then. He has been excellent. My son recently turned 18 and has signed the document granting me permission to his medical info. Dr. Koenig has treated him with much respect and has made him feel adult like with also keeping me in the loop. I truly appreciate it.
Very Happy with Dr. Koenig. He is THE BEST.
He actually changed my sons appointment to a spot so he had more time to spend with him because it was more then an ear ache or sore throat. It was stomach and migraines.
I have complete confidence in the care I receive here. All know me and my family well.
I cannot day enough nice things about Dr Koenig. He talks directly to the children about very relevant and important topics; he is clear; perceptive and upbeat. Dr. Koenig never rushes you and will take as much time as needed to answer your questions or concerns. He is a true professional.
Dr. Koenig and his nursing staff are incredible. They make office visits personal and pleasant. My children don't mind going to the doctor as they trust Dr. Koenig and know that he has their best interests in mind at all times.
Walk in appointment... daughter has flu... very happy with speed of visit and care given
care was excellent
I recommend Dr. Koenig every time someone is in search of a child care provider.
This provider is good
I had not seen this doctor ever and he was incredibly nice and easy to talk to. He was very engaged in asking my daughter about what her playing lacrosse. Didn't feel like he was in a hurry!
Dr Mark took the time to listen to our questions, and fully explained the pros and cons of the acne medication we were considering for my daughter.
Took great care of my 3 year old... was very patient with him
i appreciates that Dr Koenig took the time to talk to my son, who is 12, and explain what he was thinking with regards to whybhe was sick instead of just talking to me. i think it is good for kids to feel included once they are old enough to understand.
My past 2 visits did not go well at all. Dr Tucker faulsly diagnosed a skin rash that I've had. When I brought this to Dr Koenig's attention, he completely ignored it. I'm still suffering from the same skin rash 3 weeks later
He always takes time to first talk with the child and make him feel at ease. after getting info from the kid he gets started and always talks with the child first then us. makes the child feel very important and that he matters
love this office love our Dr.
Love the doctors, nurses, and ancillary staff at this office. All are caring and go above and beyond (from the check in to the check out). My kids were rowdy and tired but everyone made me feel like they were little angels. Thanks from a tired mom!
I'm very happy with her provider.
good visit. they got my sick daughter in quickly and dr Koenig was very attentive
My son's regular pediatrician was not available for his well appointment and Dr Koenig seemed to have gotten himself familiar with my son's history before the appointment which was very helpful. overall great experience.
We love Dr. Koenig!
wonderful no-nonsense and kind physician. the archetype pediatrician
de koenig was very thorough , very holistic with all aspects of our sons mental physical health, life in general.
Dr. Koenig seems to have a script that he uses with all of his patients. I didn't feel that he was really listening to us or focusing on my child. For example, when he asked about potty training, he didn't really listen to our response but went ahead with what felt like generic, standard advice. This is fine because we don't really need help with this, but it makes the visits seem fairly useless and unnecessary. I also would have preferred that he talk through his examination with my child as opposed to directing the conversation toward my husband and I. At three years old, my child is curious and interested in what is happening around and to him - I feel that his medical care should reflect this.
We have always loved Dr. Koenig he talks to my son and that means a lot,, he really cares,, very thorough
I have been taking my children to Dr. Koenig for 20 years. He is an excellent doctor. He is always interested in the children's lives, not just their current physical condition. He always explains events, conditions, medications, and social activities relevant to their age in terms they can understand.
Our experiences have been good so far.
we love Dr Koenig and CCP
This was our first visit since moving to the area and Dr. Koenig was very gentle yet firm, my son seemed to be in a trance when Dr. Koenig examined him. My son is typically strong-willed and lets you know it, so I was very impressed!
Dr. Koenig is an amazing doctor. great with my kids
great
my son has been seeing Dr. Koenig since he was a newborn. he listens to me and my concerns and explains things to me and my child. I have recommended him to several people.
Dr Koenig is an excellent Doctor and I would recommend him to all
I know people who rank this provider one of the top in their choices to see their children, but I didn't see a great bedside manner for a younger child. The provider could tell my child was apprehensive when he walked in the door. He didn't try to chit chat or make her smile. When he went to check her ears I said, "he is looking for bunnies" because it was something the provider I like her to see regularly volunteered at the last sick visit when we first met her. This provider didn't pick up on it as an invitation to play along. The visit was more uncomfortable than it needed to be for the child, the parent, and the provider.
We could not be happier with Dr. Koenig. He has the best interest and care for all three of our children.
My care provides was not only knowledgeable and medically experienced, he took the time to provide me health and life tips. He actually cared about me.
I am extremely upset that dr Koenig partially retracted my sons intact foreskin when I asked him not to.
the doctor made the kids feel at ease
the doctor spoke to my kids about sensitive subjects in an easy to understand... non embarrassing way... he did an excellent job
very comforting and helpful
Dr. Koenig always make the patient feel comfortable.
exceptional care
He brought a potential concern to my attention and ordered a test to get further information.
Very helpful staff. Dr Koenig keeps it simple and gives me confidence as a parent.
Dr. Koenig always makes sure to take plenty of time with us - I always leave feeling like my concerns/questions were addressed appropriately. He even asked the boys if they had questions at the end of the visit.
very professional and efficient.
Dr. Mark Koenig has been our boys' doctor since birth. We have been satisfied with the over all care we receive. A couple times, I feel I have had to make my voice heard by speaking up and doing so repeatedly.
Dr. Koenig critically assessed my child's problem and came up with a very reasonable plan. He also discussed next steps if the medication he prescribed does not resolve the issue. I always feel very comfortable taking my child to CCP.
absolutely love Dr. Koenig! would recommend him any time !
Dr. Koenig always spends a good deal of time with my children. he is very thorough and kind. he always makes sure we have no questions. if he feels he has one, he can see that. he is a fantastic provider.
we love dr. Koenig!
My child has been seeing Dr. Koenig for the past 15 years and I would continue to see him. He is always patient and explains everything to not only myself but to my child. I would not want to receive care anywhere else.
provider does not listen well when asked questions. completely ignored one of my questions
Dr. Koenig is the best! He listens and always has helpful recommendations. I trust him to take care of my son, and I would recommend him.
I brought my son in for flu symptoms and the doctor insisted it was everything else but the flu, because the flu season is officially over. So he swabbed his throat for strep, which he had to redo and the second time made my son throw up, which he's never done before. Then the doctor try to say that my son was just gag sensitive. Then he printed me out a sheet to get blood drawn for mono and promptly left the room without a good bye or anything. I didn't even realize the visit was over and just stood there for a minute. And of course he didn't have mono, but I have been treating him for flu symptoms. I'm very disappointed.
doctors were kind and knowledgeable. it was comforting hearing reassuring information and answers to our questions.
wonderful care
we love Dr Koenig!
great visit
Dr. Koenig is not my children's regular provider, but we've always loved seeing him when Dr. Tucker is not available. He is great with our kids and has always addressed any concern we have had. He's a great doctor!
