Harry was not only an outstanding doctor, he was also an outstanding man. He once walked clear across a big parking lot to talk to me. His death was a horrible loss for Volusia county. He loved his profession, his family, his photos' of the beauty in the area. He has been truly missed by those of us that worked with him, his patients, his family and friends. R.I.P. Harry, you will always be remembered with joy and love.

He was a kind and very thoughtful doctor. He made me, and also my wife feel very comfortable and explained everything in detail. We loved his collection of Hats and his enthusiasm about them. So sorry to hear of his passing.

For my husband and I, it was a privilege to become his patients. Dr. Harry Moulis, well-recommend by his colleagues as one of the best in his field of medicine as well as a tremendous human being. People trusted him, his confidence in himself made you feel you were in great hands. Always a kind warm smile greeted you, diligence, honesty and sense of adventure to find that next beautiful photograph a passion of his. Rest peacefully, in the hands of God. Thank you for your work and great contribution to the medical field.

Harry was my go-to gastroenterologist taking care of myself, my family and numerous friends and patients. He was a caring, competent and gentle physician and a good human being. He will be missed by all.

I worked at Halifax for 33 years, and I would pass Dr. Moulis in the hallway . He always had a warm smile and friendly words to say to me. And that is how my husband and I became patients of his. He was such a kind man and we felt as if he was very caring towards us when having a procedure. Prayers and strength to his whole family to get through this very difficult time ❤

I'm so sad to hear this news. Dr. Harry was a great guy. Twenty years ago, my family physician said I needed to ”see the guy he goes to.”
Every appointment through the years was like seeing a trusted friend.
I will miss him, as will the entire community. R.I P. Dr. Harry.

We have lost a wonderful, talented intelligent individual in Dr. Moulis. He was my doctor for over 15 years. He always made you feel like you were the only patient he had and you always had his undivided attention. As for his "hobby", I used to tease him about going to work for Nat Geo and travel the world doing what seemed to come natural to him. God called Harry home for a reason, I for one will sure miss his smiling face. " Fair winds and following seas." May you rest for eternity in the comfort of your God.

I remember when Harry came to town. He had a young boy's optimism and desire for adventure. I was privileged to anesthetize many of his patients for more than 20 years. He was always respectful, kind and compassionate to his patients and the staff. He talked very lovingly about his wife, Debra and their adventures. Not only will he be missed by his patients and those of us that worked with him, the loss of such a wonderful person, doctor, artist , and human being is a loss to the entire community. Rest in Peace, Harry.
