WAYNE A. CHRISTOPHERSON M.D.

I have just heard of Dr Waynev passing. He was so cool and down to earth. Always direct and with kindness. He saved my life. He could walk on water. God bless him as he blessed many.

I just this moment learned of his passing & I am saddened & shocked. He was MY doctor & I genuinely adored him, his heart warming bedside manner & skill. He saved me. And when the cancer returned 15 years later, he saved me AGAIN! His absence makes the world a little darker but I will forever remain grateful to him. He was one of a kind!

Dr. Wayne Christopherson. Pittsburgh PA. An ethical, kind, compassionate, and brilliant man, the world was a better place for all his patients. Sincere and heartfelt sympathy to his family.

I am so sad to hear of Wayne's passing. He was my attending as a medical student, when I experienced his kindness, intelligence, and warmth firsthand, and it was not long before we became very good friends. I will always remember his smile and sunny disposition as well as his surgical skill. Rest gently, good friend.

Farewell, my friend!
All who met Wayne are forever diminished by his passing. The CSC "Coffee Club" just won't be the same without his wit, knowledge, and insight. You will be mourned.

Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.

I am sorry to lean the Dr. Christopherson passed away. He was my surgeon in 1986. Because of his skill, I was able to raise my children and have a happy and productive life. I am forever grateful. He was a wonderful and kind doctor. Rest in peace.

I am deeply sorry for you loss. Wayne was an incredible man, and extremely nice. I always had a great time sharing the rifle range with him and listening to his stories when it was all of the guys hanging out. My wife was also very fortunate to work him in the OR during one of his cases on call. She talked about how kind he was to all of the staff that day and how he was skilled in the care that he provided as well. Looking back on these memories, he was a great guy that will truly be missed.

My deepest sympathies & condolences on the passing of Dr. Christopherson. He was not only a phenomenal Surgeon, but also a very compassionate man & true gentleman. Since his retirement, Room 6 has not been the same - especially with the presence of his Cowboy boots wherever he went. Now, the World will truly feel empty without his presence. He made such a powerful impact on so many lives & will be forever loved & missed by us all!

May you find strength from the love and care that surrounds you and comfort in the memories that you shared. Please accept my sincere condolences. 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Please accept my condolences . I'm so sorry for the loss of your loved one. May the word of God comfort and strengthen you. 2 Thessalonians 2:16,17

I met Wayne in 1993 when he joined the staff of Mercy Hospital. We had a lot in common and instantly became friends for life. We worked together from that time till his retirement. He was steady and courageous in the operating room and a wonderful friend and teacher to all of the Surgical residents at Mercy. We travelled together, shot together and hunted together. I'm gonna miss him a lot. Rest In Peace, my friend. You were one of a kind!!

I was deeply saddened to hear of Wayne's passing. He was a vibrant person in his career and his hobbies. Wayne enjoyed the company of his many friends and will truly be missed. I know there is nothing I can say to ease the pain, but please know that I am praying for your family.

So very sorry for your loss. Wayne was a wonderful person and will be missed by all. I was truly blessed to have been able to call him "Friend".

Always kind a helpful. So sorry for his family.

Rest in peace.
Your smile and kindness will always be remembered.

My heartfelt condolences to Dr. Christopherson's family. He was an Outstanding Surgeon and a True Gentleman. I worked in Cardiology at Mercy but fortunately met him as a patient. He used his extraordinary skill to save my life. I met countless patients of his who adored and had only amazing testimonials. Sometime later I had the opportunity to participate in his care. He was a true gentleman even in sickness. There are so many patients and co workers who will miss his skill and caring heart. He was Truly a Doctor and Person that made a difference in this world!
