“I met Dr. Jackie Collelo more than ten years ago, when she helped our daughter. She was so knowledgeable, kind, and approachable — truly a healer of both body and soul. I later became her patient as well. Dr. Collelo’s presence is still very much here, felt by the many people whose lives she touched. When I think of her, I feel a warm light and deep gratitude for all the good she brought into the world. Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this incredibly difficult time.”
