So many doctors are stuck in 20-minute block sessions, and never truly understand their patients' needs. Peter Lefkow was the exception. He spent his time, his energy, his wisdom, and the most genuine care and concern for me every time we met. I remember your kindness and your enthusiasm, and I pray you had had many students who learned from you what it means to be a caring doctor. You are remembered with great affection.

Rest In Peace

Peter, here I am in the year 2018 and still thinking of you. I miss you so, so much.
Janet has passed - three years ago - and is buried close by where you are buried. In her last days, she did talk about you and said that she was not afraid of dying because she knew that she would see you then.
Love you both, always, Liz

I still carry his NYU card in my wallet to this day. He was a great doctor and a great man. He always made me feel good and safe. When he walked in to greet me, I always felt that he was a special man.
