So very sorry for your loss .... having previously worked with Dr. Serpe at Brunswick Hospital I have numerous fond memories of this wonderful & caring man. He was always even tempered, polite, courteous, and a true gentleman even when situations were strained. The world has lost a gem but he will shine above for us all. My thoughts & prayers are with you all.

My heart is broken. Dr. Serpe took care of my family since the early 1960’s. We were all neighbors, his kids and all of us played together and went to early years of school together. He adored my parents and was there the minute my dad passed in 1975 and my mom 26 years later. He treated us as family. I remained in my house and he too care of me through serious illness. I am grateful that Andrew took his place. He takes care of me the way his dad did. Certain people are larger than life—-that was Dr. Serpe. My heart is full for the entire Serpe family.

So sorry to the whole Serpe family for your loss. Dr. Sal was a very special doctor and I'm glad to have had him as my physician. He treated me and my siblings and parents for many years and we will never forget the dedication and kindness he gave. He opened up the office on a Sunday morning just to see my husband during a bad bout of pneumonia. God Bless Dr. Sal. He will be greatly missed. Love & Peace to you all, Patrice & Rich Whalen

There are not enough superlatives to describe Dr. Salvatore Serpe. First of all he won me over since his first name is the same as my dad’s. My mom, my dad, my brother, my wife and my two daughters all were Dr. Serpe’s patients. My mom often described Dr. Serpe as “a gem.” As a young boy I remember Dr. Serpe coming to the house. Mom spoke of a time when she and my dad couldn’t afford a humidifier for my brother and Dr. Serpe loaned them one. I started going to Dr. Serpe at the age of 13. I’m 65 now. In 2019, my wife Eileen and I lost our daughter Lisa. Dr. Sal and Dr. Andrew came to her wake. This is one of those moments I will never forget for the rest of my life. My most sincere condolences go out to my doctor, Dr. Andrew Serpe, and his entire family. Rest in peace Dr. Sal.
