Not sure what to say?

I have to say this! My father passed away exactly one month from my father age 91! Dr. Wooldridge always supported me while I was caring for my father and being in charge at the Adolescent Treatment Center where he showed up all the times in the evenings for the children. The children would run to him to share their progress and goals! He was a Gem I don´t know if God still make them like he did Dr. Wooldridge. Here it is almost five years coming since he´s been gone and it´s like it´s...

There aren't many days that my sister, who was a patient, does not remember him and all the advice and support he gave her. We are so grateful that he crossed our paths. Still miss him.

I am still missing this wonderful and caring man. It´s been a year but it feels like yesterday that he left us all. I miss how caring he was, I hadn´t had a doctor make me feel like a person from the moment I met him. He cared enough to take me on as a patient when no one else would. It still makes me cry to know how accepting he was of me as a person, I miss him dearly.

I would like you all to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during the passing of your father. He was my doctor for many years and I will never forget his philosophical words through the years. He was a good doctor and I will miss him dearly. He brought a lot of knowledge and expertise to the Petersburg area. God rest his soul. Amen

Dr. Wooldridge is a wonderful man!!! I won’t ever forget him for all he did for me and our clients. A remarkable spirit!!! A fun loving sense of humor and May God Bless him for all the love he shared about his beautiful wife. He loved her dearly. We love Dr. Wooldridge dearly and miss him sooo much!!!

Dr Wooldridge touched my heart the moment we met. He was so caring and understanding when no one else in his profession was to me. He helped make me whole again when I needed a doctor desperately. He took time to help me and always treated me with kindness and respect. He had such a great sense of humor, and spoke of his family always, while retelling me their funny stories of his kids growing up.
He was the only doctor willing to treat me in this area. This made him a...

I was a patient of Dr. Wooldridge for over 20 years. He was an excellent doctor. He treated me with the utter most respect and kindness. He understood me as a patient and a human being. He spoke so highly of his family and how proud he was of his children. He was a great and wise man. If it weren't for Dr. Wooldridge I wouldnt be where I am in my personal life. He gave me hope when I was so lost. He changed my life in so many ways. I'm so very sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed...
