Dear Dr. Blonder, I want to let you know how much I appreciated everything you've done for my patients and me. You taught me so many things. I learned about stars and the atmosphere. You taught me about your love for cats. More importantly, you taugh me how to love what I do, taking care of people. I loved it when I knew you were the "Rad" for the day. Your wife Paula is amazing! God bless your family.

I met Dr Blonder briefly when he did a procedure on my husband recently. I was impressed by his kindness towards us both. He even offered encouragement when I saw him later in the hallway. My deepest sympathy to his family for the loss of this wonderful man.

I am so sorry for the loss of our beloved Dr. Blonder. He was such a great man. He was great with his patients and his staff. He had a great bedside manner to his patients, explaining everything in ways that the patient and their family could understand. He was also very easy to talk to as a staff member, whether we were talking about the next patient or one of his cats!! He would also raid the doctors lounge and bring his staff snacks of cookies and candy. We all love him and can't believe he is gone. Please know that everyone from Florida Hospital Fish Memorial is sending their love and prayers to his family and friends. Dr. Blonder was a favorite among all of us!
