Fredrik Francois Broekhuizen, MD

To Dr. B's family - I just became aware of his passing and wanted to reach out. Dr. B was my OB/GYN twice. Once in 1996 and he became my perinatologist in 2004 resulting in the birth of my 14 year old son. His expertise and commitment to women's health gave me confidence I was in good hands.

To Jill and family - We met many years ago. I was one of Frits many residents and he was a great mentor. Sorry for the late message as I just saw this. I am sad I was not able to see him one more time. Aloha to a passionate and wonderful man!

Frits was a remarkable world citizen and he made a real difference in many ways during his lifetime. His life truly mattered.

In giving his best, he chose a pathway that reflected his profound respect for...

I'm so sorry to hear of Dr. Broekhuizen's passing. I was a resident at MCW from 2000 to 2004 and I had the honor of having him as a mentor. I truly enjoyed working with him and staffing patients with him. Despite the tiresome life as a resident, he made learning fun with his sense of humor.
