It really is a blessing to find someone who is so passionate about changing lives, especially of the young ones. God bless you!!

Kyk ek loop rond in hierdie dorp soos n baas met hierdie been!

Weereens baie dankie wat jy vir my gedoen het van dag een af, en hierdie beteken nie die einde nie, ek het ook n nuwe vriendskap gemaak met jou en sal nou en dan in pop net om jou tekom wys wat is nuut op Google. Maar nee regtig, jy is nou stuck met my as my prosthetic dude, for life brother.

Ek appreciate regtig uit die diepte van my hart wat jy vir my gedoen het en my laat verstaan het daar is weer ‘n lewe na ‘n lost of a leg.

Dankie vir dié ware woorde en baie dankie vir alles wat jy vir Christopher doen en beteken. Ons kon régtig nie n beter “pleister vir sy wond” gekry het nie. Jy het van dag een af n baie moeilke pad vir Christopher én vir ons gladder gemaak met jou kundigheig en amazing persoonlikheid. Keep on shining.

Jaco, dankie vir die mooi boodskap en dankie wat jy sover vir my gedoen het. Sonder jou kennis en professionele skills sou ek nie gewees het waar ek vandag is nie, en natuurlik you geduld met my ook.

Ek is baie bly ek het by jou opgeeindig.

Thanks to their skill, care, and support, I can work a full 9-hour day to provide for my family and still enjoy 5 hours of quality time with them afterwards. As part of the DBKA Team, Deist gives me the freedom to live my life as any healthy person would. Their exceptional long-distance support and efficient service, when I need parts, have been truly invaluable. Jaco and Team Deist, thank you for being part of our family.

Thank you, Deist & Associates Prosthetic Centre for an amazing job you keep doing for my son…going the extra mile each time to ensure that you cater to Tiisetso’s needs. May God continue to bless you all. 
Thank you for sticking with us Jaco, too many more memorable moments!! 

Thank you for being you and being amazing and for being my best orthotist!

Dit is ons tweede lopie met ‘n nuwe fitting. Anders as ons eerste lopie was die administrasie stil-stil deur die praktyk gehanteer en die volgende oomblik het ons medies die aansoek goedgekeur. Die nuwe been lyk baie professioneel en netjies. Die praktyk het my verbaas met hulle vinnige prossessering van versoeke. My man het al ‘n seer van die vorige fitting, maar Jaco het nie vir dit geskrik nie, dieselfde dag het hy werk daarvan gemaak.

Jaco, ons waardeer jou lojaliteit teenoor jou beroep en pasiente!

Sjoe om te lees wat jy gesê het en die video het my hoendervleis gegee partykeer voel dit so unreal. Ek het Saterdag vir die eerste keer saam my gesin uit gegaan vir die dag en kon hand aan hand saam met Jaco en my dogtertjies loop. Dit het amazing gevoel, ek het vir so lank uit gemis op so baie en nou maak ek op. Te danke aan jou, dit is bedoel vir my om die jaar goed te begin.

Verlede jaar het ek baie moed verloor, maar alles gebeur met ‘n doel!

Thank you so much for doing the Prosthesis for my uncle. I am impressed with your professionalism. He can’t stop talking about how good your service is. Jaco and your team, we thank you so much for the excellent work that you do. I highly recommend your service.

Good Morning Jaco, After I Lost my left leg and had below Knee amputation, my experience with prosthetics has been an uphill battle with a heavy ancient leg with discomfort and instability. I thought that I would never walk comfortably until I met Jaco.

First was the battle with my medical aid, and then all was sorted with the help of Jaco’s team. With Jaco’s knowledge and skills, he went the extra mile to recommend the light and full of energy Leg. This was attributed to the fact that Jaco takes enormous care in the work. His attention to detail, his craftsmanship, and his pride in the appearance of the finished product.

Finally, his professionalism in dealing with me, his warm personality, and his engaging smile enhanced the overall experience. I now have a light and energetic leg that keep me walking, working, and in no pain. Thank you very much.

More. Wil net weereens dankie sê vir die puik diens gelewer. Nick gaan goed aan met been en is baie opgewonde.

Mooi dag en lekker naweek!

Chantel, thank you so much for this amazing video you made me! It absolutely means the world to me and it brings me so much joy to know that you are happy and able to feel like a “woman” again!
Thank you so much!!

My ligaments were badly torn when I was 23 years of age. As a result, I underwent a few operations. While healing with a cast on my leg I got thrombosis. This led to me developing issues with blood circulation.
As time went on, this led to my muscles collapsing and experiencing extreme amounts of pain.

In December 2018 I went to see a specialist who advised that I have an amputation. On the 18th of January 2019, I received an amputation.
After 10 months I received my first prosthetic and in December 2019, I was able to start driving!

However, between 2021 and 2022 I started to struggle with my prosthetic, and in January of 2023, one of Jaco Diest’s patients referred me to him.
The customer service and the help I received was outstanding!

On the 28th of February 2023, I had an appointment with Jaco Diest for 10:00 in the morning. By 14:30 I already had my new prosthetic fitted!
Thank you, Jaco, I will always be grateful to you and refer anyone to your practice!

We recently replaced Rethabile’s old prosthetic leg to suit her body as it grows and received some lovely feedback from her parents!

Rhetabile’s Mom
Thanks for your professional expertise and assistance. It is highly appreciated!

Rhetabile’s Dad
Thank you so much for the great work. God bless!!

Hi, I am Kamu’s mother Olivia. I am really grateful to Jaco for what he has done for us. He really did everything he could to help us be happy, and because of this, my son will be walking soon. May God continue to give you courage. Thank you so much we are very happy with the service we received!

We received the next testimonial from Christa via WhatsApp after her consultation with us and we are so excited to see that she is doing so well!
Immediately After Consultation

Dr Deist, baie dankie, ons is veilig in Delmas.  Dankie vir die ongelooflike ervaring.  Die been sit nog steeds soos ‘n droom, gewoontlik druk hy my so as ek bestuur, en ek het hierdie keer niks gevoel nie.

A While After Consultation
Die been sit soos ‘n droom, en ek het hom eers laasnag half 12 afgehaal. Ek het gister baie meer geloop as in ‘n baie lang tyd.

A Few Months After Consultation
Ek sal nooit ooit vir jou genoeg kan dankie sê nie, die been is net een groot plesier.  Ek het vandag die heeldag by die werk sonder krukke geloop. Skeef en krom maar gemaklik. Dit voel nie eers naastenby soos my vorige been nie. Vreeeeeeeeeeeeeslik baie dankie!

Jaco, I would like to let you know that my new prosthetic leg is very comfortable. It is a huge improvement as the other prosthetic leg I was wearing was not a perfect fit. I had a wonderful December holiday thanks to you and your team.

I had my first appointment with you in November last year and you managed to complete my prosthetic on the very same day.
Thank you very much Jaco!!

Thank you so much Jaco for making it possible for me to walk like this, I really don’t know how to thank you. This is the most incredible thing that has ever happened to me. You are the best!! 

“Afternoon Sir, I just want to appreciate you and your team for the best gift you have gave to us, what a great job, passion and professionalism we encountered from your institution towards putting smile on my wife and my family. May the good God catapult you to another level.” – Patricia
