As others have written, Dr. David D. Menon took such amazing care of me for 33 years (since my MIT student days) and my family; I’m simply heartbroken. The office phone wasnt picking up since late November- still have no idea how to obtain medical records or what to do next as there’s been no communication or notification. Simply irreplaceable, and I remain at a loss- unsure how to move forward. Wishing could celebrate his life in a suitable manner. He always spent as much time with each of us as we needed; he was a good friend throughout these years. I’m forever grateful for his time and caring expertise. May he rest in peace; may his family find solace in loving thoughts from those that knew him and cared deeply.
Hi Donna – Alot of hearts were broken with Dr Menon’s passing. We were so fortunate to have had him in our lives.
Go to the MT Auburn Hospital / Patient Relations website and send an email from there. They were able to help me.
My husband and I just learned today of the passing of Dr. Menon. We are shocked and heartbroken. He was a doctor, a friend and a confidant. He had an amazing heart. He helped us through every ailment we had and was a shoulder to cry on when my son passed. Our sincere condolences go out to his family, he was so proud of all of them. I don’t think anyone can replace him. Rest in peace. I know there was a special place in heaven waiting for you. Melissa, Taneisha and everyone past and present who worked for him our thoughts are also with you.
I just found out Dr Menon passed away. I was his patient from the beginning of his practice as was my wife and children. He saved my life and was a trusted friend friend . My sincere condolences to his family and his staff as well as all the other patients. I am heartbroken to here he is gone.
I just a moment ago called his office and got a ‘disconnected’ message, and found this page while trying to investigate. Dr. Menon was my primary for 10+ years and such a nice man, a unique physician with such a broad perspective. I’m incredibly saddened to discover this. He will be missed. Thank you Doctor as well as Taneisha and all the amazing staff.
I just recently learned of his passing. I am so incredibly saddened by this. He was my husband and my primary care doctor for 5 years and he was just excellent. I have to thank him for guiding me through a proper diagnosis and managing all of specialists. He was a wonderful human being. A true rarity.
So very sad to get the news this morning. Dr. Menon was my primary care for over 25 years. He was just the kindest sweetest gentlest soul with a wonderful sense of humor. I was so lucky to have him as my doc, he was like family. My heart goes out to his wife and his children and family, and the entire staff at Mt. Auburn Healthcare on Bow Street. We will miss him so much. Rest In Peace Dr. Menon I am heartbroken I will never get to talk with you and get one of your wonderful hugs. Thank you for your outstanding care and compassion – there is a special place in heaven for you.
Dr. Menon,
We will never forget you and thank you for everything you’ve done for my husband and I throughout the years.
Heaven has truly gained a angel.
Our beloved family doctor as far back as I can remember. You took care of my parents, myself and even became my husband’s doctor when we got married 18 yrs ago. We will miss you immensely and will be very hard to replace a person like you. RIP Dr. Menon 🙏 Our sincere condolences to his family and loved ones, and those that worked with him.
David, you will truly be missed, not only by me, but by the whole community. You were a great doctor and a good man and friend. I am heartbroken over your passing, but I know you are in a better place now. May your soul rest in peace, with all my love and prayers, to you. And, my deepest sympathy to your family. Love Marie Miele ❤️🙏❤️

I loved him so much, he wasn’t just my dr for over 25 years but also my friend. When I saw you 2 weeks ago I knew you were suffering, I hope you are at peace now. You will be so missed. You were truly one of the best, kind and caring dr”s around. So many times you would spend over an hour with me and listen to my troubles. My dad loved you and mom. You helped us so much. I’m just truly devastated. We lost a giant of a man

He actually took the time & listened to his patients.
He will be sorely missed
