Dr. Schick was amazing. She was my primary doctor when going through leukemia when I was younger. She was so caring, that she helped me get the proper counseling when I was going through that difficult time. When I had a son, I took him to her. And she even remembered me. Rest in peace Karen, you will be missed and always remembered!
I have taken my children to Dr shick for many years. She was kind and a very good doctor. I wouldn't have chosen anyone else to put my kids in their hands. She was always smiling and she knew my children well and treated them as her own. I am deeply heart broken and my prayers and condolences go out to everyone she knew. You are loved and will always be remembered Dr.Schick. Rip

Dr. Schick cared for my 7 children and 2 of my grandchildren, she was the best, always a smile on her face as I remember her. You will be missed tremendously. May you sleep in heavenly peace. Condolences to the Schick family. God bless.
I remember Karen as a mom. We chaperoned field trips together for our children though out Elementary and Middle School. My first memory of Karen was when our youngest were both waiting for their big sisters at dance class. She brought the game Candy Land to keep Eric occupied and my daughter was invited to play as well. They both made up their own rules of how to play - at Karen's suggestion! She was always concerned with making sure that her children knew they were a priority - and I'm sure they did.
An amazing woman and Doctor.. She has been my child's pediatrician since birth 8 yrs ago. Mrs Shick has helped me tremendously with my son who suffers from severe allergies and A.D.H.D. She will be deeply missed, but forever loved in our hearts!!! GOODBYE may you Rest In Peace!!
Our hearts are broken. I found out about the passing of Dr. Schick Friday night. She had been my pediatrician long ago. When I became pregnant with my son in 2007, I think deciding his doctor was easier than picking his name. I knew he would also see Dr. Schick. For almost 9 years, she watched my son grow and was so kind to him, always. She did everything she could to try to find a diagnosis for him, not willing to simply put him on meds and cover up the issue. We will be getting results from testing on the 23rd, which should finally provide the answers we've been looking for all these years, and I'm devastated I won't be able to share this with her now. She not only cared for my son, but she cared for me. She always asked me how I was doing, how I was coping.. it was never a quick in and out. She truly cared about both of us.
I talked to my son on Saturday morning.. he was so brokenhearted. He said he'll never go to the doctor again because he doesn't want a new one. He added that he doesn't even want to go to her office again since she's not going to be there and doesn't want to see someone replace her.
He said he will never forget her smile or her laugh. I don't think anyone will.
You've been a part of our lives for almost 30 years and will be missed so much, Dr. Schick. Thank you for all that you have done. You've touched more lives than you probably ever realized.
Prayers to your family and office staff.
Praying for peace to the family. Dr. Schick was a godsend for me when my kids were younger and their other pediatrician couldn't seem to ever get my kids well. Even when I felt like I knew what they needed, and didn't feel they were listening. I found Dr. Schick, and my kids were happier and healthier. She listened and acted on my concerns and hers. My kids were better in health because of her. I am so saddened by her passing. She will be missed. An awesome lady.
She has been our pediatrician for many years she was an amazing person and took such great care of my children she will be greatly missed
