Joseph Martorano

I was a patient of Dr. Joe´s back in the 1980´s. He helped me soooo much! I was was just recommending his book to a friend today and found that he had passed and I wanted to offer his family my condolences, albeit very late.

I can't believe Joe has been gone over one year. I am grateful, his lessons have stayed with me. I will always remember his love for books and reading, his writing, cycling, painting and his passion for helping people. My prayers are with his family now and always. Chris Martin and I still talk about Joe and will always remember him fondly.

Dear Maureen Gerard David and Melissa
My thoughts and heart goes out to you about Joe s passing. My blessing is that I got to know him over the years of sharing the office suite. I will never forget him or my contact with his family. I hope you are finding peace and love in his honor. Warmly Eileen

My deepest and sincere condolences to the whole family. I am profoundly saddened by the news of Joe's sickness and death.

I personally knew and saw Joe for the past 10 years and my father, Len has known him for 20 + years. He was not only a physician to us but a true, caring friend. He provided great counsel and assisted me tremendously. I looked forward to and will miss our mundane/routine visits that became, among other things, sound-off sessions on New York sports teams. ...

DR JOE,
ALTHOUGH I ONLY KNEW YOU FOR 5 YEARS YOU HELPED ME GREATLY. MORE THAN A DR, YOU WERE A FRIEND, A FATHER FIGURE, & A CONFIDANT. WHEN I WAS LOW YOU MADE ME SMILE & REALIZE THINGS COULD ALWAYS BE WORSE. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE DAY I TOLD YOU I WAS GOING TO BE A DAD-YOU SAID I WOULD BE A GREAT ONE. YOU WERE SO HAPPY FOR ME. I COULD SEE THE GLOW IN YOUR EYES. I WILL MISS YOU GREATLY & HOPE YOU WEREN'T IN ANY PAIN. GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY. I GUESS GOD NEEDED AN...

Dear Maureen, David and Gerard-- Joe was an incredible human being to his patients, this was obvious in his deep comittment and caring. He had the ability to provide crucial guidance and help, with warmth, and a lack of formality. His incredible spirit, and joy for life, make it diffcult to imagine a world without him it it-- I am grateful to have known him.

Dear Maureen, David, Gerard and Melissa,
Joe was one of the kindest men and we loved to be around him.
You are in our prayers and thoughts.

I am so fortunate to have known Dr. Martorano. He is one of the most giving, compassionate, caring and honest people I have ever met. His demeanor and sense of humor got me to where I am today and for that, I am forever grateful. I can only hope that he knows how much he did for me.

Dr. Martorano was a very kind man, who helped me through an extremely difficult time....always reminding me that life is good. I will never be able to thank him enough.
