Dr. Joe: Healing Hearts, Herding Kids, and Hunting Mustangs
written by Joshua Wassei; April 2, 2024
Meet Joseph Wassei, the patriarch of the Wassei clan, ruler of the JW club, and master of the coolest pool this side of the Bay Area. With a stethoscope around his neck and a gleam in his eye for that elusive Ford Mustang, Joseph straddles the worlds of medicine and muscle cars with equal gusto.
In between diagnosing ailments and prescribing remedies, Joseph's main hustle is keeping the peace at home with his wife, Drianne, and their two little hurricanes, Natalie and Isaac. He's the kind of dad who can go from administering CPR to a patient to doling out timeouts to his kids faster than you can say "family emergency." But hey, at least his medical expertise comes in handy when little Isaac decides to play doctor with the family cat. When he's not saving lives or refereeing sibling squabbles, you can find Joseph lounging by his sweet pool, dreaming of the day when he can trade in his scrubs for a sleek Mustang and cruise down the California coast with the wind in his hair and the JW club flag flying high.
With his stethoscope slung over one shoulder and a toddler clinging to each leg, Dr. Joe navigates the chaos of family life with the finesse of a seasoned surgeon. Whether he's juggling bedtime stories or emergency surgeries, Joseph's dedication to his loved ones knows no bounds. And while his dream of owning that coveted Ford Mustang might seem like a distant fantasy amid the daily whirlwind of diapers and doctor's appointments, one thing's for sure: with Dr. Joe at the wheel, life is always an exhilarating ride.
This picture of Joe was one of the last times I saw Joe. In this sun-soaked snapshot, Joe Wassei embodies the epitome of summer bliss as he indulges in a plump strawberry. With a twinkle in his eye, Joe's playful expression captures the essence of seizing a moment of joy amidst life's chaos, relishing the sweet burst of flavor as he savors the simple pleasure.Â
