Testimonials

Joe, I can't thank you enough for your work with our son.  It was nothing short of miraculous.  All the more so as we had spent a failed year with a terrible device, approved by CHOP!  You may forward my email to any prospective client and I will tell them to run, not walk, to seek your help. Michael

Words cannot describe the love and appreciation we feel for Joe. When our son turned ten, we realized that his Pectus Carinatum was not getting better like his pediatrician believed it would. Desperate to find a solution before his teenage years, when we believed it would get worse, we contacted an orthotist for an appointment. This orthotist left my son and I in tears when he told us our son would have to wear a brace 24 hours a day until he was 18 or 19 years old. He suggested we instead take him to his colleague, a surgeon, to have this incredibly scary...

Joe, It really makes a difference finding someone who really knows what they're doing. Thank you so much for being the guy who knew what we really needed. With so much gratitude, Naomi Evans

First off I want to say that Joe is truly an answer to our prayers! I wish I would have come across him a few years earlier. My son is 14 years old and a freshman in high school. He has (HAD) a severe case of pectus carinatum. For our son, his chest was never much of an issue until he hit his growth spurt in the last year and a half. He is a baseball player and has been hit in the chest, by the ball, several times. Everytime it has happened, I worry about it causing serious damage to...

Hi Joe, Sending best wishes to you and your family for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I am forever grateful to you when I look at Don! You really have a gift, because along with your skill, you are so good at making parents and child feel comfortable and at ease. Keep up the good work which I know you will. Don finished his first semester at Virginia Tech and got all A's and B's. And, he loved living there and seemed to adjust nicely. I will try to stop by and say hi the next time you are at Towson. Best Regards,...

Hi Joe, How are you? Well finally we got back to Barbados after a week in Miami. I am back at work from this morning so wanted to really take the time off to tell you how much we really appreciated the meeting and everything that you did for Christian. He liked you so much. You are a very gifted person and great inspiration to be around. I will take some pictures when we get into the gym this afternoon and send for you. Have not seen the gym for almost two weeks so I told christian last night we have to...

Hi Joe I hope this email finds you and your family well. I have exciting news about Jacob that I’d like to share with you......Jacob has joined the Navy and is now in boot camp at Great Lakes IL. He’s set to graduate 5/3 and yes I will be attending, I can’t wait to see him. He will then go to San Antonio, TX where he will be studying to be a Hospital Corpsman. Which is basically a Medic. He couldn’t have done it without you Joe as I don’t think that they would have accepted him with his former...

Thanksgiving is here and it has been four months since our son was fitted for a T-Joe brace. While our family was thinking about the people and events that we are thankful for...you came to mind =0) When our 13 yr. old son was first diagnosed with Pectus Carinatum we were told surgery was our only option. I was researching online to get more information and came across the T-Joe brace. I read everything on the website and of course the testimonials too. I found them to be very helpful because they were so heartfelt. Now I am writing my...

Happy Thanksgiving to you also!!! Rob is doing great and he looks great. Cannot thank you enough! You're the best Joe!!

To Joe and the entire staff, Our family from Naperville Illinois and one of your favorite " success stories", PFC Ryan P. Afghanistan, wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday. He's been working out a lot and boast that he is a solid 156 lbs! He looks awesome and so grown up! Quite a change from three years ago. Thank you for helping him gain the confidence to become the strong Soldier that he is today. Colleen - Ryan's Mom !

Hello Joe, Thank you for the link to the video. It was wonderfully done and great to hear the testimonials. I am forever amazed at what you did for (my child). When I think about the complicated surgery/recovery and how it can all be avoided by your incredible brace and exercise program. It has been 1 and 1/2 years since (our child) has completed his bracing and his chest remains perfect. He lifts weights about 5 times per week and has a very defined muscle tone. I would be happy to discuss our experience and success with any parent who may...

Joe, I wanted to write and thank you for everything you have done for my son M. The time and care that you took with him Thursday for his initial brace fitting was amazing. It is evident with your phone calls to him and me prior to the appointment, coupled with the way you comforted him during the brace fitting that you care deeply about the kids you help. I feel truly blessed that you and Pectus Services were referred to us to fix M’s chest. Although I am sure he will not enjoy every day wearing his brace, we both look forward to...

Joe, So far he is feeling well and in good spirits. Joe you have the unique ability to have skilled hands and such a great way about you. Your warmth and caring comes shining through and certainly made Z, Sharon and myself very comfortable. Enjoy your party and the rest of your weekend. Steve & Sharon

Dearest Mr. Joe, In case you were wondering I am Jessica, D' s Mom. I just wanted to reach out to you and express just how thankful we are that we found you. When D was about 4 years old I noticed a slight difference in her chest, I didn't think much of it I just thought she had a large sternum. As the years I went on I quickly came to grips with the fact that it wasn't just a large sternum because now the growth has consumed the entire middle portion of her chest. I took her to...

Hi Joe, Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes and keeping you in my thoughts and prayers on your first Mother's Day without your mom. I remember that day well in my own life, it was a rotten day, but I got through it and so will you. Now although it has been 12 years since my mom died, it is still hard, but I have my happy memories of her. The good work that you do helping these kids with their pectus problems has made many, many mothers happy. Speaking for all moms of kids with pectus deformities, seeing our children healed from...

Thank you, Thank you from Nathan & family Hi Joe!! I just had to write you to tell you THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS for the excellent care you provided to Nathan. We were only there the few days for the fitting, but in just that short amount of time you became a hero and a lifelong friend to Nathan. He enjoyed every second he spent with you! Your compassion, passion and expertise of pectus conditions gave us a new outlook. After watching Nathan suffer with this condition for years with an increase in pain and a...

Hello Joe Well today is Jacobs' one year anniversary since his bracing date. Wow he looks amazing. His self confidence is so much better than before you fixed his pectus. He's gone from being a D-F student to an A-B student. He is a senior now and plans to join the Navy after he graduates. I'm so proud of him! Joe I can't thank you and Dr. Losasso enough for what you have done for us. Being out here in Hawaii we didn't have many options until I did the research and found you. I took him to Kaiser who said...
