Leonard John Cerullo

Dear Cerullo Family, your loss is unmeasurable, Mama Mia What Amazing Human Being. Our world lost an expert in his field so well educated, experienced, knowledgeable and generous. I was lucky when I needed help he was there, so very sad for his loved ones. Dr RIP you will surely be missed....

Dr C operated on my fathers glioblastoma in August of 1986. I was only 11 but I remember how much my parents deeply appreciated him. My mom specifically mentioned the twinkle in his eye. He put her at ease. Rest in peace Dr C.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Just saw Dr Cerullos obituary this morning! I was his patient at CINN in 1990! I suffered a slight stroke at 29 years old & lost my short-term memory & eye-hand coordination. Due to a Left-sided Occipital Arteriovenous Malformation.I was one of the first 500 people in the USA to trial the Gamma Knife! I will be forever grateful to Dr Cerullo for giving me my life back!I am 63 years old now.Gods Blessings to Dr Cerullos family! Psalm 27

My deepest sympathy to Dr. Cerullo’s family. I’m so sad to just see this.

I just saw this! He was the Best Dr I have ever known.The kindest,most compassionate man ever.I am so sorry for your loss. I truly adored him
God Bless.

Dear Cheryl and Family, I was so deeply sorry to learn of your loss. Lenny was such a special human being and his insight and kindness were instrumental in launching me into my medical career. Forty years ago, when his office was on Saint Clair, he sublet a sliver of his space to me so that I could open my dermatology practice when I completed my Residency at Northwestern! In later years, Lenny oversaw my successful care for a ruptured cervical disc with his then innovative "aggressive...

Dr. Cerullo saved my life. He operated on my meningioma in Chicago in 1996. I just found his obit. What a great man. May he rest in heavenly peace and may his family be blessed with many memories.

My thoughts and prayers to the family of Dr. Cerullo. He was my mother´s surgeon and cared for her for many years. Then he became my doctor years later when I had a schwannoma in my spine. Dr. Cerullo moved swiftly once I was diagnosis and I was in surgery in about a week later. He told me he was grateful I kept searching for what was wrong and said if I hadn´t I would have been paralyzed within 6 months. Your husband and father was such a talented and famous surgeon but he also was a...
