Not sure what to say?

RIP Dr. Wichern. I had Drs appointment today on 59th st and thought about you while I was in the area. You were my dad's Dr for a very long time. Thank you for being the best and most caring Dr. I miss your cute eyebrows!

My condolences to the family. He was a very special man, surgeon and teacher. I had the good fortune to know him as a medical student, surgical resident and then attending. He was a great man.

My condolences to the family. I had the good fortune to work with Dr. Wichern as the first female surgical resident at Roosevelt Hospital in 1973-1976. He was an excellent teacher.

I am so sorry for the family's loss. You may find comfort through prayer and God's loving promise found at John 6:40.

I recall each conversation with Dr. Wichern vividly. One word: sincere.

A very sweet man who gave compassion and friendship to so many. His legacy of love will remain always. My sincere condolences Adam and Logan and all who loved Doc Wichern.

My deepest condolences to the Wichern family. Without Berwick, I wouldn't be the man I am today, and I wouldn't have the brothers spread around the country that I now have. You were a giant among men, Dr. Wichern, and I am proud to have languored in the shadow of your deeds. Thank you, and safe travels into the stars, good sir.

We will all fondly remember Wich's impact on our lives. Condolences to your family

My thoughts and prayers go out to His Family. I am glad I got to know Dr.Wichern and Am very Grateful for The Berwick boys Foundation and the important role That Berwick has played in my life and helped me to be the man I am today.. Thank you Wic!!
