John Worthington

Dr Worthington (and his RN Mike), literally saved my life. I had all but given up on ever getting over my demons. My sessions with Mike and the Doc never had a time limit, nor were they relegated to one topic. They spent a great deal of time talking, considering, caring. I felt a duty not just to myself, but to them, to be a success story. I am so sorry it took me so long to find this page. I hope his family gets to one day read these stories and helps them to know what a truly amazing man he...

Dr. worthington was ONE IN A MILLION to our family. He helped us navigate our mental health issues for many years. My son truly loved him.

I was deeply saddened to hear about Dr. Worthington’s Passing. I’m sorry I couldn’t pay my respects earlier. Thank you Dr. Worthington for your kind compassionate guidance. Rest in peace

Our son was treated for 10 years by the greatest man, Doctor and genius at the young age of 20. We were SUPER BLESSED to have him in our lives. The Dr. who treats him now, and everyone we know LOVED HIM AND SO RESPECTED HIM. THANK GOD FOR DR. WORTHINGTON!!!

Dr Worthington treated me and helped me tremendously. I will hold his memory in my heart with love. Condolences to the whole family.

Condolences to the Worthington Family. May the peace of Christ be with Dr. Worthington.

We used to talk about Saint Mary his beloved wife, the Eagles, Iowa and many other things.
He was always teaching and sharing his knowledge to the med students on up to nurses and attending phycisians.
He was a sartorial genius even though he always gave Mary the credit.
Well...

Please accept my deepest sympathy. I had the pleasure of sharing a number of patients with John over the years at Abington Memorial Hospital. He was tireless in caring for these patients, and always had something to offer them. I vividly remember one patient on 3 B, a classic catatonic patient who stood facing the wall when I tried to evaluate her. I saw her again several weeks later after John's treatments, and she sat on the bed conversing normally with me. It was one of the most...
