Read MoreDr. Mijer was our doctor starting in 1967, and took gentle, wonderful care of all four of our children.

God Bless Dr. Mijer.

Dr. Mijer was my partner in in Pediatrics for many years. More importantly, he was a friend who gave me a lot of support during difficult times in my life. I will always remember his kindness. Midge and all of thr family are in my thoughts and prayers. May they find peace.

Dr. Mijer was indeed special to our family. His care of our three sons from infancy to early teen years was exceptional. His understanding of mothers who needed TLC as much as their sick children was legendary. My husband and I have continued to send greetings to Dr. Mijer each year, always with words of praise and gratitude. We are heart-indebted to this great man and humble physician. Pat and John Brunner

Mijer family,
I worked with Dr. Mijer for several years organizing the Senior Pediatricians breakfast for Children's Hospital. He was always so kind and jovial, and such a joy to talk with. He will be missed and you are all in my thoughts.

To the Mijer family, my heart hurts for you. Be gentle with yourselves.
I fondly remember Dr. Mijer and the mynah bird and the doorknobs that were soooo high that us little kids couldn't escape the exam room. It was about 30 years ago that I became too big to sit in the tiny chairs in the waiting room and had to transition out...and only recently found a doc as wonderful as he.
