My condolences to Dr Steinhauser, family, friends and coworkers. What a sad loss of a brilliant man. I only had one appointment with him, but he made feel like I was part of the family. May you find comfort in knowing he touched so many lives and his legacy will live on through you all!

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Epstein. I was only able to meet him once. It was the last day he was in the office. I am so touched that he was willing to take on a new patient with all he was dealing with. He spent a lot of time with me explaining dry eyes. Such a kind and knowledgeable man. Such a great loss for all of us. My heart goes out to family and office staff as you deal with this sad loss.

This was such shocking and upsetting news. When I first came to see Dr. Epstein for dry eye treatment, he and I bonded quickly as fellow former New Yorkers of the same age. Treatment sessions were invariably accompanied by his endless supply of stories, anecdotes, and humorous--and insightful--observations. He always had me smiling in the chair, and very often laughing out loud. He combined unparalleled professional expertise with extraordinary warmth, friendliness, and openness. I have never met anyone like him in all my experiences with health care practitioners. His loss leaves an unfillable void. My deepest condolences to his family, friends, and co-workers.

Dear Dr Steinhauser,
I was both shocked and saddened to hear of Art's passing. My heart breaks for you.
Please remember all of those people that he touched in life. Although I never met Art in person but
watched him online in multiple zoom webinars since the start of the pandemic. I will always remember
his love for Optometry and expertise in dry eyes. The treatments that I learned in Art's dry eye master classes,
I still use everyday in my current practice. My sincere condolences to you for your loss.
Regards,
Dr David Monroe

This is shocking to hear of the passing of Dr. Epstein. He was the only doctor that ever took my dry eyes seriously. I drive all the way from Florence to see him and it was so worth it. He took the time and dedication to make my eyes, better and I'm so thankful for that. He will be missed.

Art was, and still is, a mentor to everyone in eye care. We spoke once or twice a year and his advice was always given with a caring heart and filtered by his incredible intellect. I will truly miss my friend. I am very grateful to God for Art.

So very sad to see the information about Dr. Epstein's passing. I considered him not only my doctor, but a friend as well. I had seen many eye doctors in the past who simply dismissed my severe dry eye condition as a minor problem. I was truly miserable with the condition, and Dr. Epstein was the only doctor that took it seriously and committed to helping me get better. With his treatment protocols my dry eyes are so much better, and I feel like a new person. His kindness, compassion, knowledge, and skill were truly beyond comparison, and I will miss him greatly.

Dr. Epstein was the first physician to actually acknowledge the severity of my dry eye issue and actually listen to me and DO something about getting me better. I am also a medical Provider, and needing to do surgery in my practice. I have routinely recommended him to my own patients and will sorely miss him. My sympathies and condolences to his wife and family and the team at Phoenix Eye Care - I hope you will continue to carry on and do the good work he started. Victoria F. Rhodes, PAC-MPAS
