Not sure what to say?

I met Dr. Amin in late November when he was one of several doctors treating my father, who had suddenly and mysteriously taken ill.

We saw so many doctors and Dr. Amin was one of only two who spoke positively about my dad's situation. Dr. Amin took so much time and care to deal with my brothers and I. Dr. Amin helped us even when it became time to withdraw care.

I was saddened to hear that days later he and his family were suddenly in a similar situation.

It can be so hard to face the new year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.

I had the pleasure of working with Dr Amin at RMC as a new grad in 1980-1985. He was always pleasant with the nursing staff, as well as the patients. He was a kind, caring man and teacher. My sympathy to his family. His passing is a loss for all of us.

My deepest sympathy and prayers are with you. I am deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Amin. He was always such a compassionate and caring physician and was appreciated by his patients and respected by the nurses. He will be greatly missed at Resurrection Medical Center.

Dr. Amin was a wonderful physician. He took excellent care of my mother. It was a honor to work along side of him as a Micu nurse.
May God Bless him and his family...Nargis Nardi

Dr. Amin took care of our mother for years. He was very sympathetic to our concerns and always spent time explaining in detail her medical issues. He would always greet her with a smile and take time with her. We lost our mother earlier this year and Dr. Amin helped us through her last days. Dr. Amin will always be remembered by the Mategrano family.

Dr. Amin was the kindest, most gentle person I've ever known. He will be missed by so many.
