Dear Family of Dr. Malik, Please accept my sincerest sympathies on the passing of such a wonderful man.

May he rest in peace.

Very sad to hear of this. Dr. Malik took care of me back in 1979 or 1980 when as a young kid I needed tubes in my ears and my adenoids removed. To this day, he was one of my favorite doctors. Best wishes and happy memories to his family.
