Not sure what to say?

Dr. Liebgott was my doctor at Denver Health. He was kind and very caring. He is missed by his patients and colleagues. RIP

The best doctor at Denver Health. Allan turned down the opportunity to be the CEO OF DENVER HEALTH TO MY MOST PUBLICIZED CHAGRIN. HE WAS A LEADER!

Allan graduated from Rich East High School in 1962. He was friendly, intelligent, humorous and attractive. Everybody liked him. At his 50th reunion there are pictures of him standing by an award for his achievements that is displayed near the high school office. He will be greatly missed.

My father was beyond a physician, he was a dedicated civil servant. He truly believed and lived the idea that healthcare is a right, not a privilege!

I will miss his positive approach towards life, and his generous spirit! He was always ready to entertain, and truly loved to celebrate. His creativity lives on in his children and grandchildren as we strive to embody his flare for elegance and perfection, his love of art and the theater.

Thank you for always believing in...

Rest in peace beloved father.

Dr. Liebgott was my personal physician for many years. I always felt welcomed in his clinic and well cared for. I also worked with him on the design of the CCMF unit at Denver Health. He was always committed to providing the prisoners with the best level of care. He had a great sense of humor and I will miss him.

Allan embodied the spirit, science, and art of medicine. I was most fortunate to be a colleague at DHMC and to work with him when he was the internist for the former University of Colorado Davis Pavilion psychiatric inpatient unit. The photo is exactly how I remember him-as a smiling, pleasant, bright-eyed physician, always professional in his demeanor, known for his signature bowties and good humor. My condolences to all his family. To quote a sympathy card once given to me, "Where a...
