Although Dr Attoh came to the United States from Ghana, and I form Nigeria, our paths crossed in 2003, when we met at an Oncology conference.
I found him to be a very respectable, kind, caring gentleman and physician. And of course I was delighted to meet another Gem out of Africa .
We worked together in Gardena area for a short while. I learnt a lot form him, and was fascinated by his approach to private practice.
In 2008 he joined us at Healinghands Oncology . We were delighted, our patients and staff benefitted from his medical experience and expertise.
He was a very Gentle, Caring and Empathetic Physician. He puts his patients first, advocated for their treatments from insurers, and will vigorously campaign for them to approve much need treatments.
He always took time to explain to patients and their families about their care and always there to show love and support to the ones whose illnesses were grave.
He was a perfectionist.
He was a gentleman.
He was a kind doctor.
He was a much loved and respected Oncologist.
We at Healinghands miss him, when he left earlier this year, and we were hoping for him to return.
He has been taken away from us.
HE HAS GONE TO MEET THE PHYSICIANS OF THE AGES.
May you find PEACE AND REST in the Heavens.
You SERVED MANKIND WELL.
Good bye to a Great and Compassionate Physician.
Dr Olukemi Wallace, MD.

Dear Dr. Najma Latif Gandhi and family,
I was shocked and saddened to here that Michael passed. I will miss his warmth and humor. My visits to your home and watch the World Cup were always a treat.
It takes a minute to find a special person like Michael, an hour to appreciate him, and a day to love him, but it will takes an entire lifetime to forget my great friend Michael. It is difficult to know what to do in times like these. I want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely
