Stephen V. Flagg

Dr. Flagg was a phenomenal Surgeon and an exceptional person. He saved me at 12 yrs old with his professional talents for many years but also came to our home on Candlewood Lake for BBQ and boating with his family. We had so much fun skiing or trying, tubing, sailing and just enjoying those days on the water. Its the memories from those visits at home which made him more than a Dr. but a friend, thank you Dr. Flagg. My condolences to Edith, his children and so many more who loved him.

Dr. Flagg was a very special person, a surgeon, a caring Dr. who saved and ultimately helped shape the person I am. He was My Dr., the man who got to know me so he could help me. I was 12 and rushed to Yale after being Electrocuted, he was on duty that day and saved my life in many ways then and after. April 11, 1973.....thank you Dr. Flagg you've meant so much to me, done so much for me(not just as the best surgeon) but as a man talking to me a person.

My deep sympathy to Dr. Flagg's family and friends. News of his passing came to me through the Yale Crew community - we were all big fans of Dr. Flagg. I always remember Dr. Flagg chatting with us in the locker room in the 90s. He once told me about his pre-race routine. He'd be up at the starting line, getting ready, and he'd look down at his quads and say "Legs, I know I've asked a lot of you over the years. Well, I need to ask you one more favor. I need you to go really hard today. It's...

Dear Edith and family, all Blessings to you, in loving remembrance of Steve and his beautiful legacy. Bob and Janice Touloukian

Steve was a remarkable , accomplished person who has contributed so much to all of us. I was honored to know him. Condolences to the family. Carol & Bob

I am so sorry for your loss. Dr Flagg was an amazing man and surgeon. He performed surgery on me many years ago. His support pre and post op meant so much to me. It was a very difficult time for me and he was so supportive. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife and family.

Edith and Family Dr. Steve Flagg was generous of spirit and a joy to be around. I enjoyed my professional interactions with him and our visit in Sanibel. With sincere sympathy. Carolyn Truini
