Dr. Robert Irwin Henkin

I met and worked for Dr Henkin later on in his life. There were moments I considered him like family. As a professional Dr. Henkin´s standards were remarkably admirable. He walked in the office every morning with a greeting so purely spoken. As I type this I know he left us over a year ago, this was hard for me considering the circumstances. Although some considered him to be quite the opposite of approachable, I loved him with all my soul. The conversations he and I had when no one was was...

Treated me for exposure to CARC paint and was on way to bringing back my sense of smell ,,& taste.

Peace be with Dr. Henkin's family. A truly wonderful man who treated me at the clinic for many years. Ron

I know this is late but I'm just finding out about Dr. Henkin. To his family, please accept my sincere condolences. I first met Dr. Henkin back in 2003 after I developed a severe taste and smell distortion. I was a patient of his for almost 20 years.

A true expert and pioneer in his field and also a wonderful doctor. He will be...

In 2017, I lost my taste and smell due to a URI. Needless to say, I was devastated and researched as much as I could about who could help. I traveled from Arizona to see Dr. Henkin over the course of a couple of days. After numerous ENTs and their `no hope´ approach, Dr. Henkin was the only person who showed true empathy and concern. That meant more to me than anything. He was absolutely determined to find a cure for anosmia and for all of his work, I am grateful. Although he was unable to...

It was a privilege to have worked with Dr. Henkin at The Taste and Smell Clinic. It has been nearly 20 years ago, but I still think of him often. He had an ineffable passion for his work and was a true intellectual. He made a mark on everyone's life he touched. Dr. Henkin will be missed. My sincerest condolences to Jane and family.

It was great to enteract with as I called him (only to myself) Spitter. A great colleague and a good doctor and scientist. I really enjoyed our conversation and interactions. All our best wishes to Jane and family. Brian and Birte
