Dr. Breuer was my doctor for nearly 15 years, and he was brilliant, kind and caring. He saved my life and I'm eternally grateful. He was as fine a man as he was a doctor.

I am very sorry to learn of the passing of Dr. Breuer. I was a member of a group of tennis players that included Richard from the late 1980's until about 2003. I enjoyed his company on the tennis court during those years. I know that he was instrumental in getting another of our tennis players and composer, Bob Kritz, together with saxophone player, David Pituch. David and Bob collaborated on several of Bob's original compositions for classical saxophone.

Right before Dr. Breuer's retirement he took on a 12 year old boy with gastro issues and that was our son. Dr. Breuer treated Mark with the utmost care and got him through puberty and into remission. Without him, I don't know what would have happened and we were so blessed to have had such a wonderful doctor for our son. The Lehtman's

My husband and I were patients of Dr. Breuer's since 1975. He literally saved my life. He sat at my bedside many times when others didn't. He was there for me and I have lamented his retirement since the day he told me about it. I will never be able to replace him and morn his passing. You were as lucky to have him as I was.

I was referred to Dr. Breuer by Dr.Sam Sugar because my problem was a mystery - Dr. Breuer never really nailed down problem but his experience & 6th sense produced a simple treatment that solved it. He was one of a kind - don't make good, understanding people like him anymore- will be missed ! God Bless Him!

Dr. Breuer was my Dr. for 20 years. He was real old school, relying on pen and paper to review the patient's records. A bit gruff on the exterior, he really had a warm and compassionate interior. An outstanding doctor. I truly liked him and I believe he liked me and especially found the factors of my case to be particularly interesting. My deepest condolences.

I was very sad to read about my former Dr. Breuer. He was a wonderful understanding and kind man. He was one of my favorite Gastroenterologists. Peace be to his memory....
