I just learned this.  Joey was a classmate of mine at USF College of Medicine.  Rest well.

It has been one year and I love you more and miss you more each day.  I am constantly reminded of how caring you were and are...to everyone.

Just found out about this passing. He was my attending during residency in 2005 and recently bumped into him at a conference. He was alway nice. Good educator. Good person. Never looked down on anyone. He always spoke about his passion of the field of obgyn and his wife. Sad to hear about this. Rip you will be missed.

Dear Lauren, So sorry to hear of your loss. I know how much joy you each brought to one another's life. I could always hear it in your voice.

Joey and I attended Huntingdon College together.  I knew him as a studious, yet fun-loving undergrad.  

I only wish we had stayed in touch so that I could have known the great man he became.

So sorry to hear of his passing.

Lauren 
So sorry for your loss. His life will continue to live in the hearts of the many that he touched

Am so sorry to hear of Dr. Rottman's too-early passing. He taught me when I was a student at UMDNJ-SOM. I will always remember his effusive personality, humor, and zest for life.

Lauren,
I only just learned of Joey's passing in the DO magazine. I am sorry to hear of this. I have many memories of him from DMU and UMDNJ. We communicated sporadically via email, also. I will miss him.

Joey thanks for your friendship and your talks you truly helped me I will miss you a lot

I had only seen Dr.Rottman once but left his office with a new lease on life. So sorry for your loss

I will miss you Dr. Rottman.  What a great doctor, but also an incredible person who touched my life so much.  I am in such better health since going to Dr. Rottman in trhe last year.  He really cared about his patients and people in general.  He was caring, funny, honest and always talked about how much he enjoyed life with his wife.  Going out to eat, walking and enjoying her bodybuilding shows.  He had some big arms himself.  What a great man and a family guy.  God bless you, your family ,wife and team at Integr8.  May you rest in peace.  I will be touched forever by your kindness and support.  He will be missed so much!

 As patient of Dr. Rottman, I was not only impressed by how quickly he relived my pain, but how much he knew about Bodybuilding. Being a former Bodybuilder, Dr. Rottman gave me so much insight about the life style and the ability to go forward. The last time I saw him he told me that he wanted me to do a NPC show. Life is funny, the people that we meet are a Blessing from GOD. Rest in Peace, Brother

I only met the good Doctor one time.  He was a kind and gentle man, and very, very funny.  Rest in peace, Doctor Rottman, and thank you.

Rest in peace Dr. Rottman,,,you were an angel and we will indeed miss your kind and compassionate manner...heartfelt sympathies to his family and friends.

He was a wonderful man and Dr. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed during a very stressful time. I am so thankful for the life he returned to me. I was sure that there was no hope and he with humor he assured me that my life was just beginning. He was right. I will remember him always.

Such a wonderful man,full of humor,and incredibly intelligent. He taught me so much and touched my heart while healing my body. Rest in peace kind sir- I will never forget you....

i only met dr. rottman a few times in the professional setting, but he was a good and compassionate man. he will be missed by all of us he helped.

Dr. Rottman was a truly compassionate individual. Joey will be missed by more people than one could ever imagine. Joey changed so many lives for the better. God Bliss Joey and family.

It was my first time seeing the Doctor and I found him to be such a nice man.  He really took so much time with me and was sharing how proud he was of his wife's bodybuilding career.  So sorry for the loss to all.

My condolences to such a nice and funny guy. Only graced my presence once but he is definitely remembered. I give prayers and my warmest sympathy.
Rest in Peace.

I only met him briefly but he touched me deeply with his care and compassion. Dr Rottman will be missed. May he rest in peace.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss, Dr Rottman was going to do a home visit for my dad, who is too ill to travel, my prayers are with you and yours. He was an earth angel.

Joey and I did some improv classes and a couple of shows together.  He was a good friend and we loosely kept in touch via text and Facebook. I am very sad to hear of his passing, I will miss you and think of you fondly. Zip, Zap...

I worked with Joey at GLFHC and he was always good to the staff and patients.  My deepest condolences to his family.  RIP Joey..so very sorry.

I worked with Joey at GLFHC until I retired last December. A former co-worker just let me know of his passing.  He always spoke so highly of his wife, Lauren.  He had a great sense of humor and as I saw him almost daily, appreciated the way he always made me smile and his concern for his patients.  My heart goes out to his family at this time of loss.

You touched many people's lives Joey, most especially Lauren's. Rest in peace.

We are so sorry for your loss Lauren. You and Joey's family are in our prayers.

Deepest condolences to Lauren and family on the passing of a dearly loved and respected man who will be sadly missed. From your auntie, uncle and cousins in Melbourne Australia.

Lauren, our deepest condolences, We're here for you if you need anything.

Please accept my deepest condolences. I worked with Dr. Rottman at Mount Sinai Hospital. I could always count on him to help when needed.

Dr. Joey gave my son life-saving treatment, love, support and commitment that cannot be replicated ever.

Joey - We shared some fantastic times together between 1999-2003.  You were an incredible mentor and friend to so many of us.  It is hard to believe that your time with us was cut all too short.  Your passing is a great loss to your wife and family as well as your patients.  Your sense of humor and your passion for helping those around you will never be forgotten.  Rest in peace.

Gone but not forgotten; rest easy Dr Rottman

Words can't describe my pain of this news. I don't understand how someone as nice and caring as Joey could be taken from us. May peace be with him forever... Jay H

I am so very sorry for your loss.  I had the pleasure of working with Joey in Chicago at Access Community Health Network. He was always so very committed to his patients.
