Neal Andrew Seidberg

March 27, 2026

Neal Andrew Seidberg, MD, 58, passed away in the comfort of his home on Thursday morning. Neal was born on June 23, 1967 to Dr. Bruce and Judith Seidberg in Boston, MA. The family moved to Syracuse shortly after he was born and he has been a Central New York resident most of his life.

He was a graduate of F-M high school, a cum laude graduate of the University of Rochester, and received his MD from Upstate Medical University. He completed his pediatric residency at Upstate Medical University, where he also served as chief resident. He was a critical care fellow at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh where he was also a member of the air transport team transferring critically ill children. He was an attending physician in the Pediatric ICU at Golisano Children's Hospital for the past 23 years, where he was also an associate professor of pediatrics, known for his work as a pediatric critical care physician and pediatric transport team leader. He also served as University Hospital's chief informatics officer, developing and maintaining the hospital’s electronic medical records system.

He was a member of Temple Concord, The American Board of Pediatrics, The American Academy of Pediatrics, and The Onondaga County Medical Society.

Known throughout his professional career as Neal, and not Dr. Neal or Dr. Seidberg, he was known for bringing humanity into everything he did. He remembered every detail and every experience and had a unique ability to blend humor into difficult situations. He was a friend to all, and his smile and good nature will be missed. His passions were his daughters, photography, sailing on Skaneateles Lake where he spent his childhood summers, technology, cooking and SU sports.

Neal's family includes his wife Tobey, their daughters Jennie and Hali, his parents Dr. Bruce and Judith Seidberg, brother Daniel (Jenee) Seidberg, sister Allison Seidberg-Pinsky, nieces Meghan Seidberg, Ashley Seidberg and Samantha Miller, nephews Ethan Pinsky, Cody Pinsky and Jonathan Wojcik, his sister-in-law Amy (Scott) Schaefer, his mother-in-law Susan Goldner, his fathers-in-law Peter Kresel and Michael Mierzwa, and his dog Finley.

Funeral services will be at 11 am on Monday at Temple Concord. Friends may visit immediately prior to the service on Monday from 9:30 to 11 at the Temple, 450 Kimber Road<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.google.com/maps/search/450*Kimber*Road?entry=gmail&source=g__;Kys!!GobTDDpD7A!PAaJhRcGUXp-jy8WQblP02CyDQWpFsw27XO_cN-nQ7QGbwFaMTVarCjdrQBa-xHpx0pKLnYSX3LEuQ8ZRkwe2Q$>. Burial will be in the Temple Concord section 63 of Woodlawn Cemetery. Shiva will be observed at the family’s home Tuesday from 2-4 and 7-9.

Contributions to perpetuate Neal's memory may be made to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at Golisano Children’s Hospital. The service will be live streamed at  Goldberg Sanctuary<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/hyunghdab.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Lk9Gl4aGY9L6I1HguVwjyC0_2lzIS-WTKZkgtDO4tcfo9fWH0f3Ce_THRla94ME1GQp6EenbyAxK18runWrNWap_BMlqUz8i1wa5SEF1sur1u2J3KwOiV21rcfIyNRBXU4kmQkYe0yrmcaOkawCtfdvedifx83OHQY6hbKvElF4=&c=YSAUldujivoPipq4I-49odJLYhveuqWGabZwRM4GVKoWizAFdsYdUA==&ch=74D5URzqb6wuW-L-43KcAWz3ve-cbxke05Q_yLYcuJCpsrhddPz2iA==__;!!GobTDDpD7A!PAaJhRcGUXp-jy8WQblP02CyDQWpFsw27XO_cN-nQ7QGbwFaMTVarCjdrQBa-xHpx0pKLnYSX3LEuQ8ldJfhOw$>.
