Andrew Cromwell Riggs M.D.

I was saddened to hear the news today. Dr. Riggs was amazing. He was my son's Endocrinologist and I'm so thankful for all of his advice and deep concern over the years. He made a very difficult time much easier to bear and I will ALWAYS be thankful for that. My heart goes out to the family... May you find comfort in your memories as well. Thank you for sharing him with us.

We are so very sorry to learn of Dr. Riggs passing. He was an amazing doctor and offered such great comfort to us and our son Cade, who was diagnosed Type 1 Diabetic at age 12. Cade was a patient of Dr. Riggs until age 17. We always enjoyed visiting him and felt encouraged after his appointments. He was a great man and doctor. He will be greatly missed. Our deepest sympathies and prayers for his family, friends, and coworkers.

A visit to Andy was always fun. My daughter, Emma & I would march in. She'd jump up on the table & I'd whip out pen & paper. In his kind, gentle way he asked the RIGHT questions. Ones that made Emma think & reflect - what needed improving but, equally, what she was doing RIGHT. Often her tears would come, which prompted my Mamma Bear tears. He would smile & wait for the moment to clear. I found it amazing, she was always so honest with him. Admitting how life was overwhelming & she wasn't...

Dr. Riggs treated my daughter for a few years. We traveled a few hours every year to see him. He was a kind and caring doctor. I was surprised and saddened to learn of his sudden passing. My thoughts and prayers to his family. RIP Dr. Riggs

My son was diagnosed as a T1D on Christmas Day 5 years ago. He's 19 now and still enjoyed remaining a patient of Dr Riggs. We traveled an hour each way even though there were endocrinologists closer than that because Dr Riggs was just that good. He had a way of inspiring young people like my son Alex to want to be compliant and responsible diabetic patients. He was an inspiration and a pleasure to deal with as both a patient or a parent. My family is deeply saddened by this news and send...

I just learned of Dr Riggs passing. My daughter Harper, 6, was diagnosed on Thanksgiving last year and he came home early from Thanksgiving, I understand, to see her in the hospital. He was absolutely wonderful and am so glad he was her Doctor and was there for her and us from Day 1. We were so blessed and fortunate to have saw him mid-September again. My heart goes out to his family and friends. Our family was definitely blessed by him!

We are so sorry to hear of Dr. Riggs passing. He was a wonderful doctor to my son and we trusted him without question. He will be greatly missed by many.

I have been a patient of Dr. Riggs' (One of his first in the endocrinology department when it was still St. Vincent's children's hospital!) for almost 15 years now. After my diagnosis with type 1 in March of 2005, Dr. Riggs became a guiding light in my life. I will never forget his positive encouragement and support in every appointment. He is the reason diabetes doesn't overtake me, but fuels me. He watched me grow up and always made me feel like I was more than my diabetes. He is greatly...
