Not sure what to say?

11/19/2023 Very long ago, my two babies were cared for by this very gentle pediatrician, after my babies were born at Children's Hospital, SF. My children are now parents, and I have not forgotten this quiet wonderful man. I am now over 80 yr. I was a young mother from New York, my husband was a radiologist. I am grateful for the wonderful people, such as Dr. Kiyasu, whom God gave us. Shall he never be forgotten.

Dr. Kiyasu was more than a first-rate pediatrician: he was a positive presence over many years as I grew up. I'm grateful for his caring as much as for his care.

We honor the memory of our uncle -- S. Kiyasu, T. Masao, M. H. Nose family

I still think of him often. A wonderful Physician and person!

With Our Love -- S. Kiyasu Nose, Trevor Masao, Maria

Doc was and is my favorite Dr. He was always so kind and gentle, not just with me his pt., but also with my mom who had all the questions. : )

Dr. Kiyasu was my pediatrician for many years. I remember visiting him as a kid in the 1970's when I was just a few years old, until I was in junior high, I believe. I always thought of him as kind, caring and capable. I never liked getting shots, but he was always sympathetic, and I knew he was taking good care of me. He was a good man and a good doctor.

He took care of our daughter born 8 weeks premature in 1969. He stayed with her around the clock for the first 24 hours to make certain her breathing was satisfactory. He remained her doctor until we moved away from the Bay Area a year later. He was a wonderful man, very caring of his patients, and a role model of what every physician should be. We will never forget him.
