RE: The Passing of Frank Donald Tomasello, DPM
Dr. Frank Donald Tomasello (July 15, 1934 - July 27, 2024) recently celebrated his 90th birthday and passed away on the day of his 55th wedding anniversary, July 27. He was a graduate of UC Berkeley, and CCPM. Don practiced in Castro Valley, CA (East Bay area) for 40 years, where he was Chief of Podiatry at Eden Hospital. Don was my mentor and an excellent podiatrist, person, and friend. I met Don while I was in high school, and he introduced me to podiatry as a career.
He assisted me in starting my private practice and in surgery, as well as other young podiatrists in the area. He was the ultimate professional and had a heart of gold, always willing to help and give advice. He was very well liked by his patients, medical staff, and the community. He enjoyed nature, hiking, skiing, and cooking. May he rest in peace. My condolences to his wife Penny and his children David and Vanessa, who he was so proud of.
