Dr. Bower has been my doctor for about forty years. I am devastated that he will retire soon. He has been with me through all sorts of issues. He has been such a blessing. He will be greatly missed.

It was my misfortune in April to be unexpectedly diagnosed with a serious disease after many years of conscientious routine care by Dr Bower, just at the time he is eager to retire. He urged me to find a new doctor, which I've now done.
