Bryan performed surgery on me twice and fixed my spine. I remember him as a calm and reassuring professional who helped me through a tough few years. I am grateful for his help and his expertise got me back to full health. Rest in peace Bryan.

Bryan was a very calm surgeon. I did look after his wife after her surgery once and I realized, they were such a wonderful couples. He ws very supportive to her and the depth and intensity of their love was immense. It is a very hard time for her, I believe. MayLord Almighty give the strength to her and the whole family to overcome the situation.

Bryan was my boss and friend for 15 years - sometimes he said I was the boss! But we were a great team. Bryan's fun loving character made the work day easy. He was a gentleman and friend and I'll miss him.
Rest well Bryan you deserve to.
Love and regards to the Family

The Tauranga Golf Course Medical Doctors would like to acknowledge the passing of a great gentleman, colleague and friend. It was a sad day when he decided to stop playing in the ball in the bucket on the Thursday afternoons although some of us still caught up with him on Tuesdays with the Vets.
