Thought of the doctor today. I am so sorry for those who miss him. Count me now among the many.
Micheal was so kind to me years ago. He was always welcoming to me and I really enjoyed chatting with him. I learned quite a few things from him in our chats and am saddened that he has past. I haven’t been in touch in years but after learning of his passing feel compelled to leave respect and condolences. Deepest sympathies to Richard. Ryan Eubanks
May God continue to bless the family. Dr Pistole was such a wonderful person. I often think of how brilliant he was as a practioner and how passionate and loving he was as a person. He was truly a trail Blazer in he treatment of hIV in the early '90 s. I often think of how his love for people and food knew no boundaries. He was so engaging whenever I met with him on the units. A wonderful hostess. He once invited the members of the nursing unit to his beautiful home for lunch. He and Richard were such a great host. I will always remember Dr. P and how he loved and respected everyone. Such a brilliant man. May he rest in peace. Love, Zetta Leftridge, PharmD.
I used to work for him as a receptionist at his office on F st nw and it was the best experience of my life he taught me so much and inspired me to futher my education and I did graduated at the top of my class and could not be thankful to have worked with such and awesome and caring man Rest In Peace and you are truly missed
If the memorial service is open to the public, please let me know when and where. I was a patient of Dr. Pistole and would like to honor him with my presence. [email protected]
I was vary saddened to hear of Michael's passing away, He was truly the best doctor I ever had, he took excellent care myself and several other friends. We ended up becoming friends when we discovered that he and Richard had bought a house in W Va. directly above ours around 1984.
I sought out a Doctor who was on the cutting edge of Aids treatment in the spring of 1983 when I thought that I was infected with the virus and even though it turned out that I was not infected his excellent care and reassuring attitude probably saved my life during this most difficult time in my life.
I would really like to share in a memorial event with Richard and others, please feel free to get in touch with me.

Have been upset at finding out that my doctor and friend Michael has passed away. he was my doctor for many many years since i moved to Washington DC. He was much more than just a doctor he was a friend as well. He was exceptional in his treatment of a patient and would then spend time talking to you about all sorts if things. Very much missed Michael and my condolence to Richard and family from Roger.
So saddened to have found out that Dr Pistole has passed. He was my Doctor and friend of 30 years. Sadly missed but many happy memories of Michael as we could talk forever when visiting. Grateful to him for having been my Doctor for so many years.
"Mikey" and I became great ER buddies the moment his joined WHC. Became neighbors when he moved the the beautiful South River home. The years have flown by but I still giggle about the fun times of our younger days. Dee Stoehr, R.N.
