Not sure what to say?

I only just learned of Dr Hinrichs' passing. He was a good man, and a good doctor. He would call and follow up, personally, after an Urgent Care visit and had a comforting demeanor.

I just heard Dr. Hinrichs passed away and I am sick. My daughter and I adored him. What a wonderful doctor and human being. What a loss to so many people. It is so sad that his life was cut so short. His passing is just incredibly heartbreaking. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. I am certain his co-workers miss him dearly as well.

i Really did love him as a Human Being first....and as a Physician Second.....we Had so Much to Learn together, then we did, and i Had no Idea of his Passing this past Summer 30 July 2020...i Am GOBSMACKED and sorta Not Understanding. As an Underling Physician Practicing along Side with him, he did Share Many Pearls of Medical Practice with ME, And I as well to Him, from My EXPERIENCE @ WALTER REED AMC. Comrades in ARMS, so to Speak. I Recall that i did Not Have LONG to go in the Service,...

I was shocked and heartbroken today to learn of the passing of Dr. Hinrichs this past July.

I was a patient of Dr. Hinrichs. I live in Ballwin but would call and find at which location Dr. Hinrichs was working and then make an appointment and drive to either Town & Country or Webster Groves to see him. He was kind, compassionate and knowledgeable. Just a great doctor and person. He always took great care of my medical needs.

I would like to extend my deepest and...

I was quite saddened to recently learn of Paul's passing. I never had the pleasure of actually meeting him but spoke to him a number of times when I received mail meant for him and accidently addressed to me. He was always cheerful and understanding and seemed like a fine fellow. Please accept my sincere condolences.

Paul was a great friend of mine at Valparaiso University. We shared most of the same classes and worked and studied together for four years. His humor and spirit and energy got us through some tough exams and of course some great parties. I know exactly what kind of physician he was... even though we lost touch after graduation. My deepest condolences to his wife of many years and my sorority sister Tammy. Tammy, I know your faith will see you through this... my thoughts are with you

Dr. Hinrichs' death has touched me greatly. I had just seen him and had a great conversation with him. We laughed and talked about a number of shared interests. In the short moments I got to know him, he had a profound impact on me. It has certainly taught me to cherish the moments I have with people I enjoy talking to because you don't know when it might be the last.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Dr. Hinrichs was my medical provider while he was on Active Duty. He was a GREAT listener and we worked through my wellness. I am deeply saddened of his passing, which for all of us a tremendous loss. You have my deepest sympathies.
