Dr Scallen was a consummate professional who took patient care and kindness in the medical practice to the highest of standards. A role model to others in a profession where his "art" is sadly losing its touch. I had the pleasure of working with him on H5000 at Abbott Northwestern and his patients adored him. We nurses appreciated his advocacy in standing up for us during past contract negotiations. He always appreciated the efforts of nurses. He will be missed!

Dr. Scallen was always so kind, patient, personable and compassionate. He was a great supporter of nurses, and so respectful of our profession. He truly was a unique and rare individual and a classy man.

Dr. Ray was such a special man and physician.
In his active years at Abbott Northwestern Hospital, he made sure that the nurses had a strong voice, and an active role in modeling patient care.
He was known to do home visits, and spoke at many patient's memorial services.
He treated many generations of same family patients, and had wonderful partners and staff.

In summary, he was one in a billion.

I had the great honor and privilege of working with Dr Scallen at Abbott on H4000. He was so charming, funny, smart and he was beloved by his patients, too. He came out to support us nurses when we were on strike, and we won't ever forget that gesture. We will miss him deeply.
