    Jesusa D

    Queens, New York

    Dr. Sanjit Konda is one of the best Orthopedists that I have encountered. His knowledge, professionalism and medical acumen are unsurprassed. After a major auto accident that I was involved in, I was brought to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center. Dr. Konda’s excellent surgical skills restored me to normal health and mobility. I just can’t thank Dr. Konda enough for all that he did for me. He is a superb physician. God bless him!


    Priscilla P

    Queens, New York

    Dr. Konda is an amazing doctor. He definitely knows what he is doing. He has gotten me back on my feet again and back to work with all three injuries. He is caring, intelligent, and knows his stuff for sure. I have highly recommended him to family, friends and coworkers


    Elizabeth M

    Queens, New York

    It took a year and a half to finally feel like my true self – but in a new body. Sometimes trauma can be a gift, and the love, care, and understanding that comes of it all the more significant and meaningful. I relearned how to walk (now slowly jogging again), and dance, but more importantly love and respect myself and my second chance at life after a perilous, dark time. I love my scar, it is like a work of art, my guardian angel, and I will never forget the doctors who built me back up. Thank you Dr. Ganta.


    Orlando T

    Queens, New York
