Not sure what to say?

I learned of Dr. Privitera's passing about two years ago. I became a patient after my heart attack in 1995. He helped me a lot in my recovery and always treated me well with conversation and a smile. He gave me a discount for my Vietnam service. A wonderful man and I was so saddened to learn he had passed. My condolences to his family.

Remembering our generous and beloved Dr. P on the anniversary of his death. My family and I continue to remember him in our daily family Rosary. Requiescat in pace doc. Missing you.

I was a patient of Dr. Privitera several years and moved to Florida in 2007 . What a beloved man and doctor! Such a Prince. He was so gracious and loving. He truly loved and cared for his patients, always smiling. Miss him. I keep sending him emails. I just found out a few moments ago that he passed. Now he is safe with Jesus, the greatest healer of all time.

Immortal Legend

Just a reminder, my father's spirit is still with us and we are continuing his legacy www.privitera.com

I absolutely LOVED Dr. Privitera! He was one of the most wonderful Dr.'s I have ever known. I trusted him and he never let me down. I remember when I got an infection and wanted to heal it holistically. I hadn't seen him in a while and called the office. I was desperate. Without hesitation he gave me the holistic cure and within hours I was well on my way to recovery. HE WAS AMAZING!!!

I was stunned to hear he had passed. He was far too young and full of life. My sincere...

I was so surprised and sad to hear of Dr. Privitera's death. My husband and I became patients about 35 years ago when we had health problems that other doctors could not treat. He had us well in no time and he became our regular doctor for many years until we moved to Montana. We have continued to take his recommended supplements all these years and owe our good health to him. My heart goes out to Gail and their families and I hope that time will heal their pain.

I am shocked and saddened to hear of the death of the man that God sent to save my life and sanity. I was diagnosed 30 years ago with severe hypothyroidism. I was taking pharmaceutical meds and still not feeling normal. At a bible study a person that I didn't know came up to me and said " The Lord told me to tell you to see this Dr.!" I immediately called and thus started my 29 year journey back to health with Dr. P. I've always said that he saved my life and now sadly for us that remain his...
