Thank You Dr Greer for 23 years of life after ovarian cancer. I wanted only the best to perform surgery and treatment and you were it. I saw grandchildren and great grandchildren born because of your expertise. I celebrated 56 years of marriage. There is a part of my heart that will always be yours. Rest in Peace

Dr Benjamin Greer saved my life from Ovarian cancer over 11 years ago. He was so caring and intelligent. I had complete confidence in him as my doctor. I feel fortunate to have had him as my surgeon and to have been under his care. Becky Breeze-Wurzel 60604 Woodside Road Bend, Oregon 97702

Dr Greer was compassionate, brilliant and best of all, he listened. I will miss his care and kindness. I am grateful he was my doctor when I was at my lowest. I trusted him with my life, completely. I send my heartfelt condolence to his family. He was a great human.

Dr. Greer was one of my most influential mentors and I feel fortunate to have worked with him as a medical student first and then as a resident. I still hear his words of wisdom when I operate. My condolences to his family - if he was ever stressed when I worked with him I would always see an improvement in his mood if I could get him to talk about his family. He made an impact on women's health that will always be his legacy.

I am so sorry Dr Greer passed away. I believe he was President of WAGO when I first presented as an intern in the Ob/Gyn Dept of UC Irvine. He was incredibly kind and always remembered my name for all the years that followed. I also learned that he remembered everyone's name, regardless of how junior they were. He made us feel to comfortable in what can be an intimidating world of Gyn Oncology. A brilliant Gyn Oncologist and a wonderful human being. He is sorely missed.

Love you Rob and Elvera Montee

Dr. Greer was one of my examiners for the oral Gyn-oncology boards. I found him to be fair, and by the end of the exam, pleasant. He will be remembered for his contributions to the progress of our field. My sincere condolences.

Condolences to Dr. Greer's family. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Greer during medical school. He and the other faculty inspired me to become a Gyn Oncologist. During my career, he was always incredibly supportive and provided opportunities to further my research. He will be missed.

Sad news.
Ben could be a tough attending, but in exchange was an extraordinary teacher. I have many fond memories of the time spent on Gyn oncology.
RIP Ben
