Not sure what to say?

This is my 2nd post about Doc Teed. I am happy to say that I still have the original full hip implant that Dr. Teed gave me. It's been 16 years since the hip replacement and no issues whatsoever. Doc died way too soon. Rest in peace shipmate. Pete Madlem Retired US Navy

Just found out about Dr Teed's passing. My condolences to the family. I had the honor of serving with Dr Teed at 29 Palms, California. May he rest in Peace

He was an excellent surgeon. He did my hip replacement surgery in 2009 in Hillsboro Oregon. I am sad to hear that he has passed. I live in the Philippines and I am trying to find out if the Stryker hip implant he gave me is MRI safe.

Thank you for service. It was nice knowing you. "Good journey"!

I loved Ron. What a wonderful man he was. He was so sweet to me at UO. Plus he introduced me to Heather who became my roommate. I hadn´t seen Ron for years and one day he surprised me with a visit at my work in Missoula. It was the best surprise ever. I have nothing but great memories of him. Heather, I continue to mourn with you for the loss, but celebrate the amazing man he was. Love you both.

I first met Dr. Teed in 2003 when I went to him for a frozen shoulder. His patience and kindness stood out, along with his physical height! And I liked the aquarium in his office! He said I needed a steroid shot, and said I'd feel great for a few hours, but that I would hate him later that day when the numbness wore off. I confess I was really hurting later, but it was hard to hate him haha! I saw him next in December 2008, when, on the Saturday before Christmas, during the big snow...

I was shocked to hear of him passing, I was a patient of his, I met him about 11 years ago when he did surgery on my right hand and later did another surgery on my right arm. He was from the old School of medicine from where he took time to listen and along the way became your friend. I also Knew him through Keen Medical.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and staff, he will always have a special place in my heart.

Dr. Teed was an amazingly kind man. He was there for me, during some of my lowest points, with a smile and a quiet word of encouragement. I wish to offer my heartfelt condolences to his wife and children. Having lost my Dad recently, I understand your pain. Why are all the good ones gone so soon? Ron made patients feel like friends.
Fish on, Big Man❤

I didn't know Ron well but what I did know of him was all positive. He was a great guy and a great surgeon. My wife Susan Orloff and I live just down the block from where he lived. I recall him waking us up at 6:30 am or so on a Saturday practicing his "touch and goes" on his float plane. But glad he kept in practice as a pilot! Sorry for your loss, it is a loss for our entire community.
