I am so sorry for the loss of Dr. Weinsweig, I offer my condolences to the family. Dr. Weinsweig did surgery on my back on July 14, 2014 to ease the pain I was having in my feet and legs. I am happy to say he did a wonderful job. I am now mostly pain free from the leg and pain in my feet. I don't think I can put the trust into another doctor to have done what he has done for me. I am sure he will greatly missed. Our prayers goes out to the family.

This was my Surgeon who knew I had a problem but at the time him and Dr Mazagri sent me to Cleveland clinic. I ended up in St Vincients due to Dystonia. Still no one can biopsy my area in the brain due to its location. I'm so thankful this team of Doctors tried so hard to help me. I didn't get the opportunity to ever thank him and his team. He was one great surgeon.

Dr. Weinsweig has taken excellent care of my ex in law's throughout the years, most recently removing a massive brain tumor from my ex mother in law this May. He's part of the reason why my daughter still has a set of living grandparents and I'm very grateful they've been able to be treated by such a good doctor. He was always friendly in my interactions with him and took the time to explain things. My heart hurts for his family, especially his mother. Huntington has truly lost someone special.

Dear Tammi and family,

From our family to yours, may you find comfort in knowing how many lives David changed for the better through his professional practice, and from his personal dedication as a caring husband and father. From what I observed, he lived life to the fullest. He finished strong, and left a legacy his children are sure to be proud of and treasure for the rest of their lives.

Very sincerely, and with love,

Rayetta Waldo and family

I had several reasons to confer with Dr. Weinsweig in the course of his treatment of clients of mine. He was a first-rate doc and a true professional. He literally saved the life of the father of a close friend. I had great respect for him. I miss knowing that he's in our community, but I'm sure nothing like the sense of loss of his family, colleagues, and patients. My best to them.
