  • I would like to offer my sincere condolences to Ted's family. I worked with Ted at Seven Oaks Hospital for many years. He was one of the most caring and compassionate physicians I have ever worked with. A truly wonderful person. Sue - Posted by: Sue Falkenberg () on: Jun 15, 2016

  • Dear Kesselman Family: Please accept my sincere sympathy in the passing of a wonderful, caring knowledgeable doctor. On two occasions, I was fortunate enough to have Dr. Kesselman care for me at the emergency room at Seven Oaks. He tended to my mother's needs also when she was a patient in the emergency room, and myself and my family were very fortunate that Dr. Kesselman was the doctor "on duty" at the time. I remember taking my mother for x-rays at Seven Oaks a few days after Dr. Kelleman had seen her in the emergency department, and while we were waiting to be called to a room Dr. Kesselman was passing by the x-ray department, and made a special trip over to where my mother and i were sitting to stop and chat with us, and to inquire as to my mother's condition. What a wonderful feeling to know that we were remembered and approached by Dr. Kesselman. Once again, my sincere sympathy.
