Not sure what to say?

Dr Saltstein, "Hello Hello Hello", I can vividly see memories of him, followed by a focused draw, asking Mom or Dad "How long has been (breathing/coughing, etc.) The knew exactly what was wrong within seconds... SECONDS! Not only is that genius, but a clear indication he about you. I realize it has been 18 fulls seasons, but His patients remember and Will remember him eternally. I hope at least two families reaching out within that timespan. Every seasonal illness, major, I wished he was...

To the family of Dr Saltstein, My daughter and I were talking about your dad yesterday...she is now 47. He was our pediatrician for my sons as well now 42 and 45. There will never be another doctor quite like him. He was really a special man. I think sometimes God sends down angels disguised as mere mortals to walk among us and your dad was one of those....the kindest most caring individual I´ve ever met in the health field. He set the bar high and sadly we may never find anyone close to his...

Our deepest and sincerest sympathy, are with Dr. Saltstein's family and also to his staff. Our family just found out today. We are deeply saddened by your recent loss, he has been our son Paul's pediatrician. He is a wonderful doctor and caring man. He never made us feel rushed or silly, when asking questions about our first and only child. Our prayers are with you all through the holidays and always.

Dr. Saltstein is the only doctor I've known. My mom brought me to him as a new born and I saw him right up to before I got married. Dr. Salstein was more then just my doctor but like a second dad. He always took such good care of me just like a father takes care of his children. I felt as though he cared for me as if I were one of his own. Even though I felt silly telling people at age 23 that I still see my pediatrian, when I saw Dr. Salstein for doctor visits I always felt at home and...

I was a patient of Dr. Salstein for 23 years and I have so many fond memories of him. I felt such a sense of loss when I heard of his passing. I can remember Dr. Salstein when he was a rather young man and just beginning to practice medicine. Over time, his dedication and love for his patients seemed to grow even more. His many positive qualities never seemed to dimish in any way. I feel that time cannot erase all of the care and healing that Dr. Saltstein had shared with thousands of his...

We will miss Dr. Saltstein he has and in my mind will continue to help our children. He was a wonderful and kind doctor who understood the type of care parents and children needed to achieve health

It broke our hearts to hear of the passing of Dr. Saltstein. He was such an important part of our lives for almost thirty years. The very best decision we ever made as parents was to entrust the health and well being of our children to this wonderful man. He never once let us down in any way, and was the true meaning of what a doctor should be. The only problem is that after experiencing how kind, patient, compassionate, and down to earth a doctor can be our expectations are so high...

Dear Saltstein Family,
Our deepest and sincerest sympathy, condolences and most of all our prayers are with you. My family just found out today. Dr. Saltstein was a doctor whose compassion and care far exceeds many. Every child was important and Dr. Saltstein never rushed his patients or their parents out the door when they had a question. He took time to provide guidance and care to many families. He will be greatly missed and remembered in our hearts.

We were all deeply sadden by the news of Dr. Salstein. He was a wonderful doctor. Take comfort in knowing that we all have a special guardian angel to watch over us. You will never be forgotten. God bless.
