Robert P. Hershkowitz M.D.

Nick and I miss him terribly! We speak so very fondly of him remembering him often to our friends. RIP dear friend. Peg Ford

A great man and a great Doctor Never forgotten! God bless!

I remember a night, back in the 1970's, when I was so overwhelmed as a new charge nurse on BBR-II, that I actually put my head down on an empty exam table and began to weep. That is when a kind and charming resident named Bob Hershkowitz, smiled down at me and told me not to worry about a thing. He told me to cry all I wanted to, while he went out on the floor, answering call bells and emptying bedpans. From that moment on, Bob has lived in my heart as one of the finest human beings I have...

Sorry to hear of Dr H's passing. Agree that Dr H was one of the good ones without the ego. He made the best of the changes in medicine and adapted. Was happy to have him as a mentor and a colleague. RIP.

Elaine, We are send our love and sympathies to you and the family. Dr. Hershowitz basically gave my daughter back a normal life. He listened and solved the medical problem. We will be forget grateful having him as our family doctor and someone we could trust and believe in. A great man has passed.
Best Regards
The Wallach Family

Our sincere sympathy to you, Elaine, and all of the family. Bob was certainly a fighter through all he did. He was a wonderful friend, the best doctor anyone could ever have and he was so full of goodness and compassion. Words are so difficult at this time of sorrow. He will be greatly missed in this world. May Bob rest in peace. All of the family are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so so sorry to learn of Dr. H's passing. He was such a special, wonderful man. He brought sunshine to everyone he taught -- and an extra slice of sunshine to my life. His memory will forever be a blessing.

What a wonderful man & Dr. he was. Such a genuine, sincere & funny guy. I was a nurse in the ER in the early ‘80’s. He was kind & loved teaching the residents and the nurses. He did not have that giant ego so many docs had. Thinking of him, brings a smile to my face, may he RIP. God Bless his family & friends. May God heal your broken hearts and lift you close to him, Amen.

My sincere condolences to the Hershkowitz Family.
Although Bob and I had not been in touch recently; I remember fondly our many medical screenings we shared. Bob was truly the model of a compassionate physician. He will be missed greatly. Rest In Peace my friend.
