Not sure what to say?

Dr. Sander was so sweet and attentive when I would go for an appointment. We not only talked medical but, family. I remember when she had her son. She was just as thrilled being a new mom as I was being a grandma. Every time I went to the office, we showed each other pictures of her son and my granddaughter. My husband and I both were her patients of hers and we miss her dearly. We pray that God will give you strength and comfort to get through the loss and help you embrace your future.

When my husband and I first moved to the Gainesville area we chose her as our primary caregiver and over the years became friends with her. We were very excited when she became pregnant and l made her a crocheted blanket for him. We were so very saddened to hear she had become sick and now of her passing. She will surely be missed. We pray for all the family and friends that she touched. Fly high Ellen

After moving to Georgia in 2020, Dr. Sanders was the first medical professional that I had an appointment with that I thought "that was a great appointment! I'm happy that I found MY doctor." I'm very sad to hear of her passing. My deepest sympathies to her family, friends, and all who knew her.

Dr.Sanders was more than a Dr. She was so caring and compassionate. She took great care of my special needs daughter. She will be greatly missed. Love and prayers

Dr. Ellen Sanders was both mine and my wife's doctor. She was so special and sweet to both of us and an excellent physician. We are so sad that she was taken away so suddenly, and even though we didn't know what her condition was, we prayed for her often. To her husband and little boy, we are so sorry, and our prayers are with you. Rest In Peace, precious Lady. Love, Philip and Paula Casper
