I visited Dr. Spitz twice a year, sometimes more and he was more like a second father to me. Especially after my own father died in 1988. I blubbered like a baby on my last visit to him just a week before he retired. I learned of his death from this website when I googled his name one day to see if his picture had been updated from the time before. I was heartbri=oken and still am.

Would anyone be able to share Pam's adress or phone number with me. I wanted to send her a condolence card when I first found out but was unable to get an adress or phone number. Now I would just like to talk. It would be nice to talk to fellow patients of his as well.

I will never forget him. I loved him so. He saved my life so many times. How could I not.

Linda, I was a patient of the late-great Dr. Spitz as well. He was like a second father to me & I loved him very much. He saved my life as a child by operating on me @ the Broad Street Hospital & taking care of me from the 60's=80's. I have his daughter * edit* phone number & thought you might like to have it. *edit*. I am in search of my medical records as well, so if you have any leads, pls pass them on!
