I was watching a show about David Bromberg. I dated Art in 1973 when he was in Philadelphia. He introduced me to the music of David. On a whim, I looked him up. I am so very sorry to learn he passed away last year. My condolences to his family.

I always think of how wonderfully kind and compassionate Dr. Arthur Waltuch was to me throughout his time at Cedars Sinai. He helped me through some of the biggest health scares of my life. I will forever be grateful to him. I regret never finding a way to send him a thank you message after he retired. I hope this message reaches his family. I’m so sad to hear of his passing. He always spoke so fondly of his son and all his family. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. You must miss him so much.

Art beamed love. Loved him. Loved his insight, compassion, and presence. I will forever remember his generosity and power as a man of medicine. The doctor performed with a gold standard no one will ever touch. I will forever remember the warm power of his character. I wish this man still walked among us. A man so worthy, so beautiful, Art made life better for all fortunate to be touched by his life. So sad this amazing man is gone. Precious words he shared will now and always speak to me with the strength and humanity of the sweetly kind Arthur Waltuch. Love to his family and friends, Art will live in my thoughts, Christine

I've just learned of Dr Waltuch's passing. I'm heartbroken. I first became his patient in '98 and always appreciated his pragmatism and directness as well as his contagious smile. They broke the mold with this man and I know I'll there will never be another GP like him. I can't imagine what his family is going through. He would glowingly speak about his wife and son...he even liked his In-Laws, if I recall correctly!

I am so sorry and can’t believe it! He was such a warm kind person who spoke to me with such care and concern as my doctor for over 11 years! I was in such excellent hands and care with him and always looked forward to seeing him. After he assessed my health, he always asked how I was doing otherwise, how life was and always offered the best advice. When my personal life got tough, he called and checked up on me one rainy Saturday afternoon. I want to be warm, kind and compassionate as he always was throughout my lifetime. I wished I could have hugged him and told him thank you for being so kind and warm especially during those hard times. My sympathy to the family for such a big loss from a kind person.

I knew Art many years ago. He was a friend and my physician. He was with me when my second child was born. He was a kind man and a very good doctor. Our condolences to Jackie and the rest of the family. The Condits. Thanks

Art was my doctor for 15 years and Cynthia's for 11. He was a wonderful physician and a highly cultured person with whom it was a delight to converse. We miss him.

My condolences to the family. What a dear sweet man. He was my doctor for 23 years and saved my life on more than one occasion. It is a great loss. He always had kind words to say and went above and beyond what he needed to do for his patients. I'm very sorry for your loss.
