I hadn't seen Dr. Gold for a couple of years because his treatment was so effective that I didn't need to come back. I was so saddened to hear of his sudden death at such a young age and my condolences go out to his partner and family. He had that rare combination in a doctor -- a sense of humor, skill and compassion.

I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Gold's passing. I first visited him last year and he really helped me with the worst allergy experience I had ever had. My condolences to all who loved him.

I am so sad to just have heard of Dr. Gold's passing. He was a doctor who truly cared about my welfare and always took the time to answer all my questions. I loved his no nonsense approach which had a smile and a sense of humor right below that exterior. He will be missed.

Our family simply adored our beloved Dr. Gold so very much. He loved my grandchildren and each time we came to see him, he would mentor them so sweetly and lovingly. I can't bear to tell them that he is gone. I can barely believe it myself. Such a sweet spirit is with God and his selflessness will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace Dear Prince. We will love you till the end of time.

The first time I took my daughter t Dr. Gold, she was having severe sinus headaches. He started asking questions and when I went to answer, he asked me not to talk, Hanna was his patient and he wanted to hear what her symptoms were, from her. He helped my daughter when no one else could. She is happy, healthy and headache free. We will miss you Dr. Gold, you were special.

Words can't express how we feel. He was more then a physician; he treated my son who has autism and severe allergies for years, then other members of the family including myself. He always had time for Alex, understanding for all of his idiosyncracies, innate kindness that Alex responded to and such a desire to help. He became my rock, helping our allergies became secondary to counselling, his deep care for many aspects of our lives really helped to make hard choices. Our love is with Dr. Gold wherever he is.
Our deepest sympathy to Dr. Gold's loved ones.

When we had the power outage last year Steve knocked on my door every day to offer to get gas for my generator knowing I was taking care of my bed bound, alzheimer suffering mother. We could not have survived without his kind, thoughtfulness. My condolences to Bill, his family and friends.
