Just heard the news of Tim's passing, My condolences to his family. I was one of Tim's college roommates and a Delta Chi Fraternity brother. Tim was incredibly smart and a true friend that you could count on. Some years after college, 17 of us got back together again on a sailing charter to the Bahama's. One of the best times of my life. Tim will be missed.
In the bond,

Very sad to have just heard of Dr Patterson's passing. Tim was an incredible physician and person. I had the opportunity to work with him starting July 1986 when he joined Pediatric Associates. He took care of our son who was born prematurely in August 1986 and we were truly blessed to have such a wonderful, calm and caring physician who kept us at ease with our son's health and welfare. Simply the best ever. You will truly be missed by the Martin Family.

We just learned today of Dr. Patterson's passing. Our entire family is deeply saddened. He was our absolute favorite doctor at Pediatric Associates. Even moving to Frederick, over ten years ago, we still would travel to Olney because that's who our boys wanted for their annual physicals. He was kind, compassionate, and always calmed our fears. He was the first person we called, when our youngest was rushed to Frederick Memorial, because we trusted him most. Truly, the best pediatrician ever! Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. He will be so very missed.

Dr Patterson was wonderful to our family. We always knew we were in good hands when we saw him in the office. I know there were many times I provided fodder for staff party stories, being a new Mom and a nurse. I was always treated kindly with professionalism and good humor. Rest in peace and thank you!

Dr Patterson was one of our favorite Doc's in the practice that we have been going to for over 20 years. He was an amazing doctor and I always felt in good hands when seeing him. He was thorough, kind and un-rushed. I send my condolences to his family and friends and colleagues.
