My mom & I would like to send our sincerest condolences to Dr. Madowitz’s family. 
Dr. Madowitz was our family physician until he retired. He delivered myself (in 1965) & 2 of my sisters. He gave me the best care of any other physician I’ve ever seen. I was extremely sick as a child with 106-107 fevers & he would phone my mom in the middle of the night to check on me.  Finding this obituary makes me extremely sad, I truly loved Dr. Madowitz. It makes me sad every time I pass his old house/office on Brentwood Road…There will NEVER be another physician like him. I pray he is RIP.

Sorry to hear of Dr. Madowitz’s passing, he was my pediatrician (I remember being vaccinated in his office). My mother/family adored him.  We left his care because my dad’s insurance required us to use the doctors in his plane, but as I got older I often wondered what ever happens to my kind caring doctor at the corner of Brentwood Road... even recently I was in town and passed the practice and wondered - which prompted me to search on line... I was saddened at the discovery but also realize no one lives forever and he lived well and had a blessed life.  My family was blessed to have known him. My sincerest condolences.  🙏🏽♥️ ~ Juanita Brooks- Daniel 

Sorry to hear that our Dr. Madowitz of Brentwood had passed away. He was our family Dr. from 1960 till he retired. My parents had 5 children and we all went to him.  I did listen to his interview from a few years ago and it really shocked me I had no idea of his life before he came to the U.S. and what he had over come. I wish I had known. I'm glad he lived a long life and was able to enjoy his grandchildren.

 I would like to express my sincere condolences on the death of. Ela

My sincerest condolences to the Madowicz family on his passing. Dr. Madowicz delivered me in 1963 and was my pediatrician and GP until his retirement from his Brentwood practice. Few people have made such an impact on me in my life and few days go by without a thought of his professionalism, kindness and grace. Your family was truly blessed.

Condolences to the Madowitz family. We were patients of Dr Madowitz for many years - my parents living in Brentwood from1960 till 1990. Bring one of five children we were in his office on a regular basis. I remember he came to the house as I was running a 105 fever. He said to my mother- Dr Martin- what do you think? , and her treatment was exactly what he suggested. My father did speak to him late 2016- and told him what a positive influence he had on our family- we speak of him often. 
Our love to all the Madowitz family- Nancy Martin Guadagno: daughter of Peter and Marilyn Martin

I'm very sorry to hear about the passing of your father Leon, Richard and Jackie. My deepest condolences. In case your wondering I'm your cousin Henry. Evidently I was no informed of his passing. We used to enjoy our visits to your home in Brentwood LI when we were young. Always had a fondness for your mother and how gracious she was to my family when we visited. My best to her and give her my deepest condolences for this loss. They came to my mothers house when my father died and attended my father's funeral.

My sincerest condolences to Doris for the passing of Leon. My parents, Joel and Ryfka Koniarsky, and I have been frequent guest of yours in Brentwood. My parents knew you and Leon in Wielun. We enjoyed visiting with both of you. I am sorry to hear of your loss and am convinced Leon and my parents are sharing lots of old memories from their youth in Gan Eden.

Uncle Leon was one of my very favorite uncles.
An amazing individual, he always made me feel special.
I will miss him!

I was a patient of Dr Madowitz from around 1958 until 1973 when I join the Air Force. He was always a gentleman and a very good doctor. I can remember he was always professional, well dressed and spoke on a level that we call all understand. A very friendly man.  I was surprised to recently find out about his past experiences of his live and being a Holocaust survivor.  He will be missed.


I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. Leon Madowitz, my 32nd floor Kennedy House neighbor  for 13 years. We shared a 50 yard long hallway from 32B to 32K. We both used it as an indoor walking track when the outdoors was not welcoming. He was the sweetest most gentle person and his life was well-lived.  I am a long time supporter of UJA-FEDERATION and my upcoming annual gift will be in his memory. My deepest condolences to his family.

Leon was brilliant, charming, witty, and full of corazón.  He was a second father to me.  I will cherish our times together as we sat at the kitchen table and I listened to his life stories.  Even now I see him beating the eggs for his specialty dish of matzo brei which he insisted on making for me in the morning. What an honor to be in his light! Leon was an exquisite human being in so many ways.

we are very sorry. my husband worked with dr. madowitz at southside and my mother (mrs. dennis} was the head of the emergency room. dr. and mrs ray haag.

To the Madowitz Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

I am a cousin to the Madowitz family and recall visiting them as a child with my parents. We celebrated together on various happy occasions. Dr.Leon Madowitz gave me helpful advice when I began my practice of medicine many years ago. I spoke to him before the Passover holiday and he seemed to be in good spirits, despite health issues and concern about his wife. He was one of my last links to my family's past, as most of my family perished in the Holocaust and so I never knew them.  Leon helped fill in some details of their lives.  My condolences to Doris his wife, to sons Jackie and Richard and the whole family.  May the Almighty comfort you among the other mourners of Zion and Jerusalem

I greatly regret that We did not know Leon personally. That said, we feel as if we did as a result of many conversations with his son, Jack. Leon's obituary lovingly captures him as a person, parent, physician, and humanitariun. His survivors have every reason to be grateful and proud of his long life and accomplishments. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends
 Henry and Karen

In loving memory of a wonderful father, who lived a truly amazing life. You will live in our hearts and minds forever.
