Investigators are looking into the possibility of Lorich taking his own life since there are no signs of forced entry in his apartment. Authorities have not found a suicide note so far.

 

Lorich lived in an Upper East Side apartment on Park Avenue with his wife and three daughters. At the time, Lorich’s wife was not present inside the house. She was out playing tennis.

 

Although the police did not go into the details, they did reveal that Lorich was going through some kind of “personal stress” in recent times.

 

According to a report by the New York Daily News, an unnamed woman, believed to be one of Lorich’s female colleagues, showed up at the apartment after the police arrived at the scene. After she spoke to the doorman, she knelt on the ground and started to pray.

 

“This is horrible, this is horrible. I don’t believe this,” the woman was heard saying. She declined to give her name.

 

Although Lorich’s came to the media spotlight after helping Bono recover from his injuries, there were others that the orthopedic had aided during his life, a number of whom belonged to various law enforcement agencies.

 

In 2005, he tended to NYPD Officer Tarrell Lee and firefighter Matt Long, who had been run over by an SUV and a bus respectively. Long, who went on to become friends with Lorich, said that he was in shock after hearing about Lorich’s death.

 

“He was a good doctor, and a good man,” Long said. “He saved and helped so many people. He gave me back my life, and my family and I are all devastated. He came to my wedding. He was part of my life … This guy did so much for me. He sacrificed his whole life to help other people, and I happen to be one of them.”

 

Lorich also had a charitable nature. He was among the many physicians who volunteered for aiding the victims affected by the Haiti earthquake in 2010.

 

“It’s devastating news. Dean was a friend and a tremendous doctor,” said Dr. Soumi Eachempati, who accompanied Lorich during the natural disaster. “The medical community will have an extremely large void without him.”

In the time since Dr. Dean #Lorich, 54, reportedly died as the result of suspected suicide on Sunday, additional details about the days leading to his death are surfacing. Lorich was the trauma surgeon [VIDEO] credited with saving U2 frontman Bono’s arm following extensive reconstructive surgery in November 2014. Bono sought to avert another bicyclist in #New York’s Central Park when an accident happened. On December 8, Lorich learned that he no longer had privileges at New York-Presbyterian Hospital (NYP), which meant he could not practice at the prestigious hospital.

 

Lorich is rumored to have been booted from the hospital as an effect of supporting the “wrong horse” in an in-house “political battle,” the New York Post reported.

 

Though on Lorich remained on NYP’s website as staff “late Monday night,” the Post noted, by late Wednesday night a search of the hospital’s directory online for his name resulted in “Nothing found.” As well, the biography for “Dr. Dean G. Lorich” has been removed from NYP’s website, though a December 9 Google cached copy, dated was still accessible late Wednesday.
