“Dr. Bade explained my injury to me very clearly. He took time to tell how I need to proceed to strengthen the area. He was very patient and made sure I understood.”

“Dear Dolores, (Dr. Bade's Billing Specialist) Thank you very much for your courtesies and patience. Please tell Dr. Bade that the arthroscopic surgery on my shoulder was very successful and my golf game has improved. Though I do not get as much distance, I am much more accurate and my game is one of course management and my score is lower. Again, thank you very much to you and all of the pleasant and friendly staff in your office.”

“Overall experience was excellent. Dr. Bade was very informative and the condition required surgery on my left knee which went very smoothly. My rehab and recovery went quickly and I was quickly back to normal.”

“Was greeted warmly when I arrived. The receptionists were friendly and helpful. Waited only about 10-15 minutes and saw the doctor. He was very kind and thorough. Checked the X-rays and told me his diagnosis. Explained everything and even use plastic models to show what needed to be done. I chose the conservative approach and will wait and see how it works. I would recommend Dr. Nicholson without reservations.”

“I am so very grateful for my two new knees!! Dr. Foos has given me back my life! It had been years since I was able to exercise the way I wanted to. Now I can walk, bike, do Zumba, and enjoy moving to the music the way I used to. Swimming is still great, but I no longer have to rely on the pool for my only form of exercise. My volunteer work at the Bronx Zoo is no longer painful. There's such a lot of ground to cover, but now I'm happy to be there. This doesn't even cover playing with my grandchildren! It's amazing how much we take for granted, and how we can get used to losing it. It's easy to forget what you loved to do, but it's wonderful to rediscover them again. The care I received was wonderful. Physical therapy took several months, but following "orders" and hard work were definitely worth it. I am thankful every day.”
– Susan G.
