I was truly sad to find out Dr. Maggio had closed his practice in 2012. I had just happened to call for an appointment in Summer 2012. If I had not I would have never seen him again. He was a skilled physician, modest and good man and a wonderful person. I only just found out that he passed. What a shock! It seemed to me that Dr. Maggio did the work that God put him hear to do and helped so many and saved lives. I could say so much but I will just say, "Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God!!."

What I remember most about Dr. Maggio was his smile and his way of making a patient feel at ease in any situation. He exuded a calmness that was contagious even when dealing with issues that may be considered somewhat serious. As a patient, I had total confidence in him which I've never felt towards another physician. He exemplified the characteristics that all doctors should have- he truly cared about his patients and felt that economic status should not determine quality care.
He will be truly missed!

Dear Dr. Maggio
Did I thank you enough? How happy I was that I could have children. Your hands were blessed and so was your heart. Operations,medications, crazy moods, weird rash(pups),worries. You and Eileen helped me through it all.
Eileen my heart aches. You two were some team. All that work and only you two and you always managed to make people feel like they were special. Thank you. Mrs. Maggio he was the best. I will pray for you.

I knew Dr Maggio from 1968 when he was an intern at St Clare's Hospital.both he and Dr Jordan cared for my mother tand me. When I became pregnant in 1974 they both saved my life and our darling Tara's by their care and concern. Without them my husband and I would never have had our child. After a very difficult pregancy both Mother & I continued to see Dr Maggio. He cared for my mother throughout her battle with cancer. I deeply feel his loss. May he rest in peace and be united with all his patients

I was referred to Dr. Maggio 5 years ago, after he had taken over the practice of my previous Gynecologist. I had two visits with him, however it was sufficient enough to receive his competence, hopefulness, kindness and solemnity in the performance of his practice. My prayer is for his wife, children, family, nurse Eileen, and all his patients find comfort in their memory of him, strength for the years ahead without him and peace of heart for the legacy of love he left behind for us all.

I am so heart broken to just read about the passing of Dr. John J. Maggio who was a compassionate and wonderful doctor. I met Dr. Maggio when I was only 17 years old (40 years ago) at Dr. Jordan's office on Park Avenue in New York City. Dr. Jordan's nurse, who I believe her name was Margaret, was also the mother to Dr. Maggio's nurse Eileen and they have been a part of our medical family for years. I will miss my visits to Dr. Maggio's office and my conversations with Eileen. I was trying to have my RXs refilled and my pharmacist advised that they could not get through to his office and so I tried to find out and did so with a very sad result. It will definitely be hard to replace Dr. Maggio. My Mom, Nancy Mitchell and myself send our condolences to his family and especially to his loyal and faithful Nurse Eileen. We will miss you both - with sincere condolences, Anne Marie Mitchell, Bogota, NJ - P.S. We will have a Mass said for Dr. Maggio.

I was visiting my Neurologist and mentioned finding a new Gyn Dr. since Dr. Maggio closed practice last year and I was unaware. She told me he passed a few months ago after a sudden brief illness. I was in shock and cried. He was an excellent Physician and wonderful man. I enjoyed my visits to his office chatting with him about the community boards as well as my conversations with Eileen. Dr. M. was a people person, always going the extra mile. Both Dr. M. and Eileen were part of my family re St. Vincent's.
Dr. Maggio, please rest in peace and my condolence's to your wife and children. Also, condolences to Eileen who shared the days with you those 35 plus year. Roseann Rosado

I am so saddened to hear about Dr Maggio's passing. He was a wonderful Dr and also a wonderful person. I was his patient for 37 years and he delivered my Daughter in 1978. Whenever I had a problem or a question he was always there for me. I could always depend on him. He will truly be missed. RIP

Dr. Maggio you are one in a million. When the doctors did not want to listen to me you did. I have been with you for over 30 years. I will always talk highly of you; I could not have been in better hand that you. When I was seventeen years old and I came to you, perform surgery on my ovaries and gave me the opportunity of have three beautiful girls. I will always be grateful to you. When god chose to take you home, he chose the best. May you rest in peace. I will also miss you smile

I was a patient of Dr. Maggio's for over 15 years. I am only learning of his passing this moment. He was the best doctor I ever had and I will miss him greatly.

We are devastated by the news of Doctor Maggio's passing. I had been his patient for 47 years. I always felt we grew old together and we laughed about it. He was someone I could trust implicitly and when he told me everything was all right, I just KNEW it was. My first recollection of him was being introduced by Dr. Jordan. I was lying on the table in an uncompromising position. We both blushed. I never minded traveling down to the city to have my yearly exam. It was a long trip but well worth it.
May you rest in peace, dear John, and know that you were loved, cherished and respected all these years. If there is a way to get our records, I would greatly appreciate someone contacting me at my email address: [email protected]

My family is so sad to hear of Doc's passing! We had been trying to reach him since October and no one advised us until I reach out today to the doctor who shared the office with him! We are devastated! All these years and we dont even know Eileen's last name to contact her! My God be with his family and loved ones at this difficult time!

Thank you John for being a part of our family the last several years. You will certainly be missed by all of us. It was too short for sure. It was quite evident that you loved my sister Joann and was very fond of her. I will miss the Sunday night dinners at your place but Joann and I will keep the tradition going in your memory. Thanks too for all of the fun times on Shelter Island...especially playing golf at Gardner's Bay. I will never forget those days. We love you John. Love Tom

I am so touched by the words of Dr. Maggio's patients. He was so humble about his accomplishments. I am only now hearing about how many children were born because of his knowledge and skills. He was in my life for too short a time. I miss his voice and his smile. Love, Joann (John Maggio's wife)

Dr. Maggio you will be greatly missed and never forgotten. You are a one in a million Doctor. No one can ever take your place. You delivered our Daughter Jennifer almost twelve years ago, and she is a true miracle.
Love,
Jennifer, AnneMarie and Louis Pacifico

Dr. Maggio was one of a kind! He represented the meaning of being a doctor! To give of your self to help the sick and heal, to bring life! He did that and so much more for medicine and the world. He is irreplaceable and the world is a better world for he was in it. He will be sorely missed in this world and forever loved and cherished by all. Thank you Dr. Maggio for everything most especially for just being who you were. Simply put wonderful! Deepest sympathy, Deb and family
