  3. The world has lost a great man and excellent physician. Dr. Gurol had treated our family since 1978, including caring for my Grandmother and Father until their deaths. I cannot express the compassion and care he showed to them and our family during these times. Dr Gurol treated me from the age of 14 until late 30’S. I still compare all physicians to him and have yet to find one that is close to his knowledge and compassion.

    I pray for the family and hope they have comfort in knowing that Dr. gurol provided so much care for so many that he is being rewarded with everlasting peace and happiness.

    I will miss knowing that such a man of knowledge and dedication is no longer here. I do rest easy knowing that he is caring for my loved ones once again in Heaven. God Bless you Mrs. Gurol and and know you are in our prayers. Goodbye Dr. Gurol

  4. Our family will fondly remember the many happy times we shared with Dr. Gurol throughout our nearly forty years of friendship.

We will continue to love him dearly and cherish his hearty laughter in our hearts and minds forever.
