LEigh Naftolin was my Doctor for many years & I loved him! HE was not just my Doctor but my friend. I was going through a very painful Time in my life and he was always there to listen and supply the Kleenex. I don't know what I would have done without him.
I was heartbroken when he told me that he was leaving. HE was the best Doctor that I have ever had then or since. I will never forget him.
MY thoughts are with the family at this time.

I am profoundly saddened to find out recently that a man that had mentored me had passed away. With great regret that I did not thank him when I had a chance.

DR. Naftolin was my Doctor for several years in London, Ontario. He was my favourite Doctor ever. When he moved I felt as though I had lost a friend, not just a Doctor.
My sincere condolences to his wife & family. He was a wonderful man!
Sincerely, Grace Baker

I was saddened to hear of the Doctor's passing. Dr. Naftolin became our family doctor soon after the doctor's arrival in Houston; took over our doctor's practice 40 yrs. ago. We loved him. When our son was born he became his baby doctor. I can remember Dr. Naftolin brought his staff to the hospital to see our newborn; Dr. Naftolin & staff seemed as excited about our baby as we were. He was our family physician for many years and I can't say enough good things about him. My prayers are with you.

Our sincere condolences go out to your family on the passing of Leigh.
He was our doctor in London Ontario that many years ago,with Dr's Patten and Annet.
However his kindness and compassion, his humour and joyful manner endeared us to him .
What a lovely person.
We thank you for his kind service to us and mourn his loss.
John and Brenda Kay
