Remembering Dr Kosnik. My 4 yr old was playing on her bunk bed and fell on her head and broke her neck in 1977. My husband and I took her to emergency room were the emergency Dr only saw bruising and we went home. Dr Kosnik called me the following morning to tell us to bring our daughter back to to do more xrays. We returned and Dr K explained that he saw a break in her neck on the previous xrays and she needed surgery. If he had not seen the break my daughter would not be here today. ...

I'm pretty sure Dr Kosnik was in part responsible for me being here today. I don't remember him because when he saved my life I was only 22 months old but I'm very thankful for all his work in helping to save my life. At 22 months old I fell out of a hammock and a piece of plastic went through my temple and I suffered a subdural intracerebral hemorrhage and was diagnosed with traumatic brain injury. Literally half of my brain was damaged. I wasn't expected to make it through the surgery. It...

Dr. Kosnik has come across my mind today. He diagnosed me with Hydrocephalus (1999) and saved my life with multiple surgeries under his care throughout my life. He was the smartest and most talented man I ever met. May he rest in peace, and his legacy; never forgotten.

Wow. Dr. Kosnik came across my mind. He diagnosed me with a benign neuro tumor at age 4 when I had my first surgery (1988). My second surgery was at age 9 (1992). I will NEVER forget him. Now, at age 40, I can't believe I still remember the way he spoke, smiled and reassured my family that I would be do great in life. It's awesome to hear his daughter has followed his steps. Bless his whole family. Forever a memory. Never forgotten. <3 :)

He was the greatest surgeon I ever met and had.

Dr. Kosnik saved my life at age 12 after having an AVM and stroke in 1992. He troubleshot all throughout my life even when it came down to having my first child. He was simply giftted. My family is still as overjoyed as if it was 34 years ago. To the family I pray for your peace and prosperity in knowing of the legacy he left behind Elvira williams Barnett

Dr Kosnik diagnosed me with the brain tumor when I was 14 years old in 2001... Dr k always took great care of me. He actually gave me a hug after one of my appointments in his office and told me to hang in there... Hands down the best doctor I have ever had! From the second I met him I knew he was somebody I could trust... God bless Dr k!

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

I still think of Dr Kosnik often. He saved my daughters life many times and even troubleshooted for her after moving from Columbus to Boulder. We have never had a better Doctor and miss him terribly. He would be proud of Lindsey and how successful she is due to having a partner in health like him to allow her to live and thrive. We love you Dr Kosnik.
