My condolences for the loss of Dr. Rhangos. I was his patient from just after I was born until I was in my late teens. I was born with a club foot and Dr. Rhangos operated on me When I was just six months old. I have always thought very fondly of Dr. Rhangos. As I remember, he was the only doctor that I ever looked forward to going to for a checkup. I am now a registered nurse. I can only hope that my bedside manner measures up to his. I will always remember him fondly.
