Dr. David Godfried, MD

Excellent care. So kind to my nervous 9 year old. Helped ease his fears.

Dr. Godfried is one of the best! He’s an amazing surgeon. He is one of the most hands on doctors I have ever met. You see how he cares and loves his job!

Dr. Godfried is an exceptional Doctor. My daughter who is now 7 had been toe walking since she was 2. She had been seeing a different doctor for 5 years who had recommended she needed surgery. Her father was not so sure about the surgery and wanted a second opinion. We found Dr. Godfried through her pediatrician and from the first day I met him the experience was amazing. Not only was he very detailed about my daughters condition, but he was very thorough on his explanation of the surgery. We decided to have the surgery done by him and we are so glad we did. The whole experience was amazing. He was with us every step of the way. He even called me and asked me if I had any questions before the surgery and gave me his cell number. The whole experience was incredible and my daughter is doing amazing. Her surgery was performed in late August 2021. If your child needs surgery, Dr. Godfried is the one you need.

My son broke 3 fingers skateboarding. We went to the ER where they attempted to set them and told us to see Dr. Gottfried in a week. Two days later, after the doctor saw the xrays(which looked bad), his office called us and said to come in asap. They got us in the next day, did a pre-op exam there and then, and my son had surgery the next morning. I was SO impressed.

My 13yr old daughter was having pains in her hips and knees. We met with Dr David Godfried and Demetrios Roussos in their Manhattan office. They were both courteous, professional, caring and helpful. Dr Godfried diagnosed my daughter with Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis. Dr Godfried recommended surgery and explained the procedure. The surgery was a success. We are extremely pleased with the service provided.

David Godfried + Demetrios Roussos = The Excellent Team Our newborn son had bilateral clubfoot. We were scared about it, because it could affect all his life. So we started to find the best doctor to treat it. We chose NYU and we are happy. David Godfried and Demetrios Roussos did an AMAZING job. We cannot even believe!!! Without any surgery. But be aware, every visit takes much time (1,2 or even 3 hours). We had 8 casts (8 weeks) and 12 visits already. Don't rush, be prepare and have enough ti

Dr. Godfried is once of the most knowledgeable doctors I have ever met. My daughter has been a patient of his for 6 years and we have had an all around wonderful experience with him and his staff. My daughter has a rare orthopedic condition which required surgery. Dr. Godfried and his staff have taken exceptional care of our daughter and we highly recommend his services.

Amazing doctor!!!!

We waited for 2 1/2 hours and were never seen by the doctor. An emergency came in which I totally understand but this was not the only excuse. We were told the computers were down and then that he had no nursing staff today. Totally unprofessional!!!! Will meet use again.

This Doctor is literally a humanitarian that truly understands the human condition and potential. Please go to visit him if humanly possible or make it possible!

Dr. Godfried was late 1 hour and 45 minutes, didn't apologize, there was no real introduction or proper greeting and when he read the existing x-rays that were in the system he provided us with an erroneous calculation of the spine's deviation. Upon my husband's request he concluded that he made a mistake and that the spine deviation was different that the one he calculated at first.
