Dr. Douglas Dalziel Lewis D.O., a distinguished physician, devoted family man, and Air Force Veteran, passed away peacefully on April 24, 2026, at Hospice House following a courageous and longstanding battle with diabetes. Born on November 28, 1952, in Portland, Maine, Dr. Lewis lived a life marked by dedication to his profession, his family, and his community.

A graduate of Freeport High School, Dr. Lewis pursued higher education with earnest commitment. He earned his bachelor's degree in biology from the University of Maine at Orono, then continued his studies to become a physical assistant at George Washington University. His academic journey culminated with a medical degree from the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1990. Upon completing his education, Dr. Lewis and his wife Kathleen relocated to the Youngstown area where he was honored to receive an internship at the Youngstown Hospital Association at Northside Hospital.

Dr. Lewis was not only a skilled physician but also a proud Air Force Veteran who served during the Vietnam War. He was a member of the American Legion, demonstrating his enduring commitment to his country and fellow veterans. Those who knew him remember a man who cherished spending time with his family and enjoyed various creative pursuits such as drawing, photography, and reading.
