Thank you Pamela, he was truly one in a million…his absence leaves a huge hole in our hearts! We miss him everyday! Jeannine Bartlett
If this is the Jack Bartlett I knew at the U. Of F. if in 1962-63, I am so sorry to hear about his passing. He was , even before he was an M.D., one of the most considerate, kind, and caring people I knew. I send my condolences to his family.Pamela Harris
I have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Bartlett for the last 10 years. As a parent of a child with special needs he was truly a Godsend. From day one he not only treated my daughters like they were one of his grandchildren he always took the extra time to ask how we, the parents, were doing. Words just cannot express the impact he has made on our family. We are better people & parents because of him. Our thoughts & prayers go out to his family & friends.John, Ann, Caitlyn & Josie Sylvester

Dr. Bartlett was our pediatrician when my boys, Chris and Jamie Lawson, were kids. He was kind, caring, and compassionate. When Jamie was only 13 months old, Dr. Bartlett admitted him to the hospital for severe dehydration and a horrible infection. I was a basket case during this time, and only Dr. Jack could sit with me and calm my fears. Because Jamie was so ill, Dr. Jack stayed with him above and beyond what other doctors would do, and took the time to reassure me that he would be alright. He was a very special man, one that I respected and admired for his gentle touch. To his family … I have all of you in my thoughts and prayers, as I know his loss will leave a tremendous void in your lives. May God lift you up, comfort and strengthen you during this difficult time. RIP, Dr. Jack. Debbie Sanders LawsonFort Myers, FL.
You took great care of me as a child with Type I Diabetes. And now you take care of my 8 year old son. You were always the calm strength we needed. To say you will be missed is an understatement. Thanks for all the years of patience and guidance.
Dr.Bartlett was my sons pediatrician right after birth and continued to be until we started seeing Celebrado. I also did some work for Dr.Bartlett and he was a very kind, gentle Dr. And I felt very comfortable with him and the gift he had for working with kids and making them feel very at ease. God bleas him and his family. Michael a. Combs, Sr.
I only met Dr. Bartlett one time. I went with my sister who was expecting her triplets. She wanted to meet him before they were born and I tagged along. I was so impressed by his warmth and caring concern. Over the years, I have heard countless stories of how he had cared for my niece and nephews. I know he will be deeply missed by them. I am grateful that he was there for them for so long. Debbie Sinamark, proud Auntie to Colin, Scott, and Emma Manzi
Jack and I were grade school friends and he worked as a counselor at my parents Day Camp (Camp Waluhiya) on Siesta Key in Sarasota for many years. So he has loved kids for a long time! During those years he was like part of my family. He was a gentleman and kind to those he met.Susan Brooksbank
My thoughts and prayers are with Dr. Bartlett's family and colleagues at this terribly difficult time. Dr. Bartlett has been pediatrician for my children since 2002 and through even the most difficult times provided me the calm, steady guidance I needed, setting the bar for every other practitioner. It was clear with every visit that he genuinely enjoyed all facets of his practice, loved children and his easy-going nature made even the most emotional times easy to handle. More than that, he regularly went over and above what was required. Having said all that, he was a remarkable man. He will be missed; we were very blessed to have known him. Barbara M.
