My sympathies go out to DR Drout family. He was a sweet and a gentle man and most caring. He was always there for me and will miss him dearly. I have been a patient of his from the very beginning and I know how intelligent and an excellent diagnostician He is definitely a great loss to the medical field.

My dearest Dr David Drout ,
You were definitely one of a kind
You were a cardiologist and a physician with an extraordinarily patience , love and peace
Your patients always spoke great about you
Regardless of how weak , and frail you looked when diseases set into your life , you continued with love to serve , and gave your last gift on human care to the community
*
I remember when you once became my patient, you wrote a long page of letter about me to the management of how excellent , and a caring nurse I was . Thank you Dr Drout for making me feel so compitent and proud as a nurse . A treasure of memory which I will forever keep in my heart
Finally you were not only a physician but a unique gentleman
I am so happy you have passed with dignity and respect You will soon cross over to join our Maker in heaven .
*
Please remember to join the health care members in heaven , and continue with spiritual research to find the cure for many diseases on the earth
Although you have departed , you will still remain in the hearts of the HACKENSACK meridian family.
Fly like a peaceful bird into the heavenly hands of the lord Amen

Remembering David as a good childhood friend. He was raised by great parents. Spent many hours doing normal (for 1950's) kid stuff. He went on to be a stand out in high school and obviously in college and his medical practice. May the Lord comfort his wife, siblings and children.

I first met Dr. Drout in 1980 when my husband had problems with his heart and needed open heart surgery. After my husband passed away, I became his patient. He was the caretaker of my heart until March 2019. I loved him as a doctor, and as a great man. I am going to miss him very, very much. He will always hold a special place in my heart.
