I had known Jeff Brecher since we were children. He was a wonderful person and a great doctor. He helped me tremendously. I have not met a doctor who comes near to his ability, his caring and his nature.
I really miss him.

Jeff Brecher was a remarkable and excellent physician and human being. I just found out, today, that he passed away last October. I have been trying to reach out to him to inform him of my husband's death last week. I have thought of him many times over the months since he retired and imagined he was enjoying his retirement. When Mrs. Brecher responded to my e-mail and told me of his death, I was truly stunned and greatly saddened. Rest in peace, Jeff. I hope that you are past your pain. I miss you. Linda Erlich

Dr.Breacher and me became so close he was the only one who listen to me when I went to so many other doctors before I found his practice and he’s the one who diagnosed with fibromyalgia he always helped me he always was there for me and I literally just found out his passing today I am so sad and devastated he always talked about his wife and his children and his grandkids how much he loves you all I am just so sad I was so sad when he retired because there was no doctor to listen to me and cared about me as much as him he would even call me on weekends I really don’t know what to say besides I’m writing this to all of you and crying God I will always remember you and miss you forever love always Danielle

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. We will miss you, the best Dr ever. Knowledgeable, caring and compassionate. The world is a sad place without somebody as special as you.
