I was a very grateful recipient of Dr Seymour’s attentive treatment. He helped me with several issues and always put me at ease. I do have an auto immune disorder which he helped me to navigate on some level. His bedside manner was impeccable. I surely do miss him as a practitioner and a human being.

Dr. Seymour, during every appointment I had with him always spoke to me about faith in God, knowing that I was a Catholic priest.  He mentioned that his daughter went to a Catholic high school even though the family was Jewish.  Dr. Seymour was not only a wonderful doctor; he was also a wonderful human being.  I still miss him to this very day!

Fr. Joe Staudt

At each appointment, Dr. Seymour would always ask me what topic I was going to preach on that coming Sunday.  He was always interested in spirituality as well as physical health.  He was a very well-rounded, holy man who shared his God-given gifts compassionately with his patients.

Dr. Seymour served me and my family for several years.  He was caring and funny.  He was like a friend.  I never felt that I was just a code on an insurance schedule.  He was the epitome of what I think a doctor should be.  I miss him.



Dr. Seymour was a healer, both in body and soul.  He had a wonderful, cheerful bedside manner.  In my 70 years on this earth, I've never had a doctor who took care of me the way Dr. Seymour did.  I sincerely miss him, but I believe he lives now with God in eternal life and continues to pray for all of us as we continue life's journey.  I look forward to seeing him again in eternal life.

Alan was our dr for many years.  Dealing with “corporate” doctors now makes missing dr seymour even more regretful.  On this anniversary of his passing, august 28, 2021, out prayers are with him and his family.

I am just finding out about his passing as I tried to call his office for some medical history.
My husband and I were patients of his for many years. Though my husband died in 2012 and I moved to FL in 2016, I will always remember him as the best doctor we ever had. 
He was personable, compassionate, and highly competent. He was thorough when he treated you.  When I was hospitalized for a possible heart attack he came to the hospital as they were doing an echocardiogram. He was supposed to be on his way to a family vacation but took the time to check on me. He was amazing... everything and more that you would want to have as a doctor.
 We both had sons that went to VMI and had much in common.
He will be greatly missed by all of his patients as well as all who knew him.

What can I say? Alan was one of my best friends in school from 3rd grade till high school and even thru college when he attended NYU, I stayed over nights at his dorm in NYC.  Alan couldn't choose between me and Pete SHindelis as who would be his best man at his wedding with Gina.  Miss you buddy.. Your life ended too early. You helped keep my father healthy and he just reached his 92nd birthday last year.

I am so saddened to hear of Dr. Seymour's passing. He was my parents physician for over 20 years, and mine for a few before I moved. He was the most thorough and compassionate physician I ever met.  He helped us get through the loss of both my parents over the years and he will be greatly missed. Rest in peace.

I found out last night , I am so sorry for your loss.  Please accept my deepest sympathy.

I was one of Alan's first patients He was a kind and caring person.my wife Jean and I were always well cared for by him .I loved his watercolors that graced his office . I remember him when his father would take him to my restaurant when he was a youngster. I was sad to hear of the passing of his father Dr R James Seymour just a few days ago.they will be missed

I just found out about Dr. Seymour's passing and I am just stunned and saddened by this news. I was under the impression that he merely had some kind of an injury and needed time in rehab to get his strength back. I never imagined it was the serious problem that I heard it was. He was my doctor for 13 years and when I left my job in the same building that Dr. Seymour practiced in, I tried to find someone else to go to, only for convenience, but nobody came close to him. He was kind and funny and cared about what I had to say. My most sincere condolences to his family, friends, co-workers and his many patients. I am so sorry for the loss of such a lovely man and  dedicated physician. I will miss him terribly.......

I just found out about Dr. Seymour's passing. My sincerest condolences to his family. Dr. Seymour was my doctor for almost 25 years. He was extraordinary, both as a physician and as a human being. He was always fully present when you were in his exam room. You never, ever felt you did not have his complete attention. Nor did you ever feel like he was watching the clock. Of course it was also always a treat when you saw the doc in a local restaurant or grocery store! I will miss him and the world has lost a truly great fellow.

This is so sad.....too many great young people are passing before their time. 
Alan and his dad James (who saved my life in ‘68) were our family doctors since I lost my dad in ‘67
They positively affected our lives for such a long time. .....we will truly miss him deeply.

Marcus Welby couldn't hold a candle to Alan Seymour. And aside from his doctoring skills,  he was a good caring man. Irreplaceable! May he rest in peace. 

I have tears in my eyes; I am the wife of Edward Skiber; he saved my husbands life; he went to visit him for a cold and also complained of his arms feeling tired when he got out of the car to walk to work; Dr Seymour sent him for a stress test and he was found to have blocked cornonary arteries that required surgery; 18 years later he is still here thanks to him; he was the BEST! angela skiber

I just found out that Dr. Seymour passed away.  I have no words.  I am so sorry for your loss.  There will never be another doctor like him.  He was compassionate, smart and funny.   He never gave up on you;  he would keep looking for answers.  I always kidded him that I didn't need Google, I had Dr. Seymour!  It seemed that whenever I went to Stop & Shop we would run in to each other.  He was "always picking up a few things!"   He always made me laugh.  He was my father-in-law's doctor as well.  He cried when my father-in-law passed away.  He said he had done all he could for him, but it wasn't enough.  Dr. Seymour was truly a Mensch - one of the great guys.  I will miss him.  May his memory be a blessing. 

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Seymour.  He was my doctor for the last 28 years and I'm heartbroken that he lost his life at such a young age and that his patients lost the best of the best.  He was a dedicated, caring, and a compassionate Doctor and human being that you truly trusted and loved.  I knew he was very sick but I prayed he would recover.  He was so very kind when he learned of my husband, Tom's passing last year, who also was a patient of his later on, and the time he spent trying to console me.  Losing my doctor that I so trusted after losing my husband of 50 years was very difficult. My heart is very heavy especially for his family he leaves behind that he loved very much!  I hope that these memories and words of love for this man help you all get through this very difficult time!

Just found out today. I am devastated for his family and myself. 
        Doctor and I shared a love of potato chips.  
When I would go for a visit. I would bring him a bag.    Utz  salt and vinegar were a great favorite. He would peek inside the bag .  Say I will be back in a few minutes.  Petrizzo . When he came back I knew he couldn’t resist eating a few
           I love you doctor Seymour. And will miss you terribly
My deepest sympathy  to all of you

I worked for Dr Seymour many years ago when he first took over the practice from Dr Hoffman.  I had met him when he was taking care of my Mom.  Dr Seymour has taken care of many if not all of my family up until the day he first took ill.  I admired Dr Seymour for his great instinct.  He had the ability to pin point and diagnosis just from reading lab work.  Dr Seymour was charming, humourous, caring, dedicated, loving and had a smile that could melt away any concerns giving you support on the road ahead.  To say he will be gravely missed is an understatement.  My heart is very heavy for this man was just too young to pass .  God Speed to his wife and children who he loved so very much and was so proud of.  Dr Seymour I pray your light will always shine down and guide us all who were part of your life.   The Furnari Family 

When I moved back to Bay Shore in 2012 from New York City, I immediately called Dr. Seymour's office to become his patient. There was no other doctor I even considered. Dr. Seymour took such tender care of my Mother through her illness of more than five years. He also took great care of my Father when he became very ill. They are both gone now, but Dr. Seymour continued to take care of my  brother, Kevin, and when Kev became gravely ill from an allergic reaction to an antibiotic, Dr. Seymour was with him throughout his entire illness and recovery. I believe he saved my brother's life. He also took such great care of my boyfriend, Ward, who he took on as his patient when his practice was "no longer" doing so. On behalf of the Larkin Family, we will miss our doctor very much. I am glad we got to attend his memorial and meet his wife and children. Thank you Dr. Seymour for your dedication and your genuine care for all of us. Rest well among the Angels. You will always be remembered.

On behalf of myself,  my family and extended family I extend my deepest sympathy.  He has been in our prayers continually since we first heard he was ill.  As patients of Dr. Seymour we knew we  had the best doctor.  He was an excellent doctor and genuine decent man. 
We had some serious illnesses, accidents and the death at 38 of my sister. We as a family were never alone because Dr. Seymour was there to help us through. 
Always available for a question when we didn’t understand things. 
We continue to pray for his  family, extended family, staff and friends during this very difficult time. 
The Corbitt, McKee and Neumann families 

Dear Alan;
So many fond memories from our Oakdale days. Scotty, my brother made many of those memories with you. With all respect and sincerity, we will deeply miss you. To Alan's family, our deepest sympathy to you all.

We are shocked and deeply heartbroken at the passing of our beloved caregiver, Alan Seymour. Through the decades, Dr. Seymour cared for our parents, siblings, and friends. Known as an excellent diagnostician, Dr. Seymour treated the whole person, and in our case, our family. He was generous with advice, his time, and words of comfort.  We feel the pain of your loss, yet remember his significant life and gift to us. We will not forget him.

My deepest sympathy to his family. What an immense loss for the world and the  medical community. Dr Seymour was not only my PMD, but also the PMD to several of my patients when I worked in home care. He would always come to the phone to listen to the issues at hand and give orders when needed, regardless of what time you called. His caring and compassionate way of practice  is a rarity today.  He would always take the time to sit and listen to whatever was going on that brought you to his office. Truly one of the  best doctors I’ve had the pleasure to know.  Rest In Peace. 

We were extremely saddened to hear about the passing of Alan Seymour. Our daughter met Joseph, Alan’s oldest son, 3 years ago and they have been very happy together. We had been looking forward to meeting Alan and Gina but last August, we heard the terrible news about Alan’s illness. We learned first hand through Joseph how devastating Alan’s illness was and about the impact it had on his family.  We prayed that he would find the strength to recover and return home to his family but that was not to be. We send our heartfelt condolences to Joseph, Gina, Jacob, Joshua and Hannah. We are so sorry for your loss and our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.  

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Alan’s passing just last night . While we were members of Bayberry Tennis Club and knew each other’s family well, I really got to know more of him on the weekend mornings at SSH when we had rare moments of quite at the nurses station. He spoke with passion about his family as we would swap stories and also spoke with such genuine care about his patients. He will be truely missed and my thoughts and prayers are with Gina and his entire family.

Working for Dr. Seyomur was an amazing privilege and I carry his lessons with me to this day.  I can still hear him saying "the devil is in the details".   I considered Dr. Seymour a role model and I owe my patience and knowledge of the medical field to him.  I enjoyed making him laugh and helping his practice transition to electronic health records.  I am heart broken for his family who I know admire him to the moon and back.  He always saw the potential in me to do great things and always understood me, even when I did not make sense.  I hold every doctor up to his standards and hope that more doctors will learn the true art of practicing medicine. I truly miss his practice, family and his positive presence. 

I am so terribly saddened by the loss of my wonderful doctor.  This was a man who truly cared and knew his patients.   He actually called me at 6am one morning because I had talked about him out of sending me for an MRI the day before and he said he couldn’t sleep and wanted me to go.  He cared , he was kind and he was an excellent diagnostician.  As a nurse I witnessed the excellent care he gave to all his patients.  My deep condolences to his family....he always talked about you all...I am truly heartbroken.

Wow, this is so hard for me to wrap my head around. Don’t even know where to begin. My beloved Doctor Seymour, smartest and most dedicated physician there ever was . Promised Dave he’d keep him going to 80, called me on a random Saturday afternoon, out of the blue and said I know what’s wrong with Dave. Sent him to a Nephrologist and he was Dx with Amylyoidosis, saved his life.  I ‘m kind of an anxious character, i’d Go into the office and say we’ll, i’m Crazy again , and he’d say I love it when you’re crazy 😜! Always worried about his “Flock” . Always rounded on his patients, even if he was off.  His Dad was so proud of him, and would always brag about him @ the Nurses station. He was so proud of his boys , and Hannah . And Gina he was so proud of you as well, especially when you stated working in the School. His patients loved him, I took care of a man several years ago @ SSH, and He was his Dr , and was waiting for him to round, he was talking about him and the guy said, oh Dr Seymour , I love you!! We were joking about it with Dr S who then told us to cut it out!  He will be so sorely missed by all. My prayers for his family ❤️
