Dr Benjamin was a fantastic person as well as amazingly skilled dentist. I miss his mischevious sense of humor, keenly intelligent comments and deep-seated kindness. He truly broke the mold! Although not present on earth, I know he will be present in our hearts and minds until we see him again.

I am devastated to learn this news. Dr B was my doctor for close to 20 years and a friend. We loved to talk baseball!! I moved to Canada and lost touch, back in US and called the office today. So very sad. He was a truly good person. Sending healing thoughts and prayers to his family.

Dear Family, I am so saddened and shocked to read this and sorry to have missed this news until now. Artie was a student of my father's at Memorial Sloan Kettering Residency Program and such a dear friend of the family since the late 1970's. He was a mentor to me, as a young woman dental student, allowing me to chairside assist and I knew I could always turn to him for advice and guidance. Artie attended our wedding, and loved my dad as his own father. He was a devoted professional and stood for all that is great about Dentistry, Family, Love of life and pursuit of happiness in the face of despair. I will never forget him or any of his hilarious stories. Farewell my friend, until we meet again. Andrea (Stoll) Braun, DDS

Dr. Benjamin aka. Arthur was so very special to me. He was the GREATEST dentist in the world! Beyond that he cared about me and my personal life. When my grandfather stopped practicing dentistry, I found Arthur when in 1980 when I was a teenager. I was very picky as I wanted a dentist as good as my Papa and one who treated me like family and that was Arthur. My appointments would always run long, because we would sit and share very heartfelt conversations about life, loss and joy. Artie will be greatly missed!!! He will always hold a place in my heart. ❤RIP beautiful kind man. With Love, Bari Rosen.

I am truly saddened at Artie's passing. We were the closest of college buddies, but eventually lost contact, as is not uncommon in life's journey. My deepest heartfelt condolences to the family at this tragic juncture.
