Christopher J. Gottsegen, MD

As a radiologist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to merging my love of science and health with the service of others. The ability to non-invasively peer inside a person and determine how to help them has been enthralling to me since the first time I saw a radiological image. My role allows me to provide critical insights that guide patient care, and I take great pride in contributing to the wellbeing of my community.

I specialize in musculoskeletal imaging, focusing on conditions ranging from sports injuries to arthritis. My expertise includes the use of all imaging modalities to interpret the musculoskeletal system from head to toe. However, my main passion lies in utilizing musculoskeletal ultrasound for real-time diagnosis and guiding interventional procedures to provide pain relief. With years of experience and a fellowship in musculoskeletal imaging, I am committed to using my skills to alleviate pain and improve the quality of life for my patients.

Throughout my career, I have focused on proactive healthcare engagement, and I believe in fostering strong partnerships with my patients, ensuring a positive and responsive healthcare experience. My affiliation with NYU Langone allows me to offer coordinated, seamless care, leveraging a comprehensive approach to treatment.

My journey into medicine began with a fascination for radiology during medical school, despite initially knowing little about the field. Post-graduate training on the West Coast refined my expertise and solidified my passion for musculoskeletal imaging. Returning to my New York roots to serve the community I grew up in has been a joy and a privilege. My educational background and personal experiences have inspired me to pursue a career where I can make a tangible difference in the lives of my patients.
