Dr. Robert Bob Harris

Dr. Harris was an exemplary man and an exemplary physician. That is a rare combination. It is obvious from his obituary that his was a life well lived! Dr. Harris served as my doctor and as my children's doctor. He was also a mentor to help me pursue my own career in medicine. I wrote about Dr. Harris in my medical school admission statement because Dr. Harris cared for his patients as if they were his family. I am forever grateful for his care and his example.

How many families have been touched by Dr. Harris? How many students have benefited from his mentorship, his leadership, and unwavering support. He was a physician for the soul, and that is a rare and wonderful gift. What a life well lived! My heart is with you.

Dr. Harris was an awesome man! He was a friend of my Uncle who was also a doctor and he was my pediatrician as well as my two children's and my two grandchildren. He always praised me for being such a great mom. He was such a great doctor and will be greatly missed! My heart goes out to the family as they go through this difficult time.

I am overwhelmed with emotions. This man was my physician, my son´s physician, and my friend. Full of compassion and at times some tough love. I will forever be grateful he was a large influence in my life. He will be forever in my heart and missed.
