I had the privilege and honor to shadow Dr. Czwalina for several weeks during my undergraduate years at King's College. He was a fantastic man and physician. He was a keen diagnostician. I watched him diagnose a perorated ulcer using only his fingers to percuss, he sent the patient directly to the hospital and right to the OR, where he assisted in surgery, definitely saved the guys life. You do not see many family physicians nowadays with these versatile capabilities. Dr. Czwalina taught me so much and helped me decide to pursue a career in medicine. I am now a practicing Physician Assistant for over 22 years. I was very saddened to learn of his passing; although it was several years ago, i am sure he is truly missed by his family, friends, and patients. God bless and rest in peace.

I just learned of Bob's passing and my heart goes out to his family, especially his girls. He always talked about them and was so proud of both of you . Bob and I were close when we were in college and stayed friends forever. He was one of a kind. He told me one time he wanted to be a doctor so he could help people and would be happy to get paid in chickens! He delivered my son 37 years ago and my late husband and I went to Dr. Bob until he closed his practice. He was always just a call away when we needed him. Rest in peace, Bob, you will be missed by so many.

It's with a great sadness and heaviness in my heart to have to offer my condolences to your family. I'm very sorry for his loved ones untimely loss. He was a great guy and always had an off the wall joke to break up a conversation or brighten a day. I called on Doc for years as a sales rep and had the pleasure of working with him for the past couple of years. He was a great guy and it was a pleasure to have him as a co-worker, a fellow veteran, a neighbor and most of all to be able to call him my friend. I think we really helped each other thru the Covid quarantine and I will miss his calls and his stories. My prayers go out to his loved ones and may he rest in peace! Go Army and God Bless.

I´m so sorry for your loss. Just to let you know that he is what u call a dr he would always get on the phone with u or have u come right over no matter what he was a very concerned and compassionate dr around u won´t find any one like him. I was saddened when he told me he was retiring I said but y. He said to many changes and not to his liking. He was a people dr not an assembly line dr like they r now. You will b missed and may u rip. Our dr for 36 years.
