Joseph Dwoskin Obituary
07/14/1935 - 11/16/2021
Joe was born in Chicago IL and grew up in Omaha NE. He served in the US Air Force. His interest and dedication to healing led to a career in medicine. He received his BS in Pre-Medical Sciences at Springfield College and his MD from Thomas Jefferson University. Joe was one of the first two full-time pediatric urologists in the United States. He practiced Pediatric Urology in Buffalo NY and Lubbock TX.
After retiring to Castle Rock CO, with a second but equally strong interest in aviation, he became a pilot and took to the skies, flying his Cirrus SR22 around the country.
All who knew Joe would wish him a peaceful final flight.

I worked for Dr. Dwoskin for 3 years at his office on Hodge Avenue in Buffalo, NY. He was an excellent surgeon and really cared about his patients! His practice was super busy. We were a close group and we loved our boss. I have so many fond memories of him. I realize there is a lot about him that I never knew. I knew he loved horses but I did not know he loved flying. I always recall his concerns for reflux. He would have siblings X-Rayed and often they would also have reflux. I enjoyed going to Children's Hospital to get the X-Rays he needed when meeting with his patients. I will miss him even though I had not seen him in many years. I am sorry for his loss.

Dr Dwoskin was my urologist. He also treated my daughter, my brother, my sister in law and 2 cousins. When I was in my early 20's I had a flower shop that happened to be next to the stable, in Java, where he kept his horse. On a Sunday when I was working he showed up at my flower shop on his horse. I want to say his name was "Big Horse ". He was the best Dr I've ever had. He was always there when I needed him. Something made me think of him today. God bless.

I would not be alive today if it was not for the personal interest and constant dedication Dr Joe gave to me in 1972 at the age of 13 until after my kidney transplant when I was 28 in 1987. I will be 65 this year because of him.
