Read what our patients are saying about Professional Orthopaedic Associates.
“Dr. Torpey is a consummate professional with an exceptional bedside manner. I had a total hip replacement, the pain is gone, and I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. The operation went well, and at follow-up appointments, he answers all of my questions, and I never feel rushed. I would highly recommend Dr. Torpey to anyone. ”

Treating Doctor:“Dr. Parker is kind and caring. He answers questions with patience. His surgery was great, and I am healing well. He is encouraging.”
– Maxine M.
Treating Doctor:“Dr Gabisan took the slow and steady course to help mend my Achillies tendon. He told me up front that it would take six months to heal and allow me to walk properly. He prepared me for the future by telling me there is calcification in the tendon and I may have issues in the future. This allowed me to prepare and recognize symptoms before hand! I was well pleased with the results!”
– Barbara O.
Treating Doctor:“Searching for a great doctor and surgeon is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make in your life. I have been a patient of yours for over 15 years and not only do I feel part of a medical family, one you will never find anywhere else, but I am more comfortable in my life in your very capable hands. You are a surgeon like no other and someone who is overly compassionate, has the best bedside manner you will ever experience, and a level of care that gives you a level of calm like no other. I have had 3 operations, two cervical fusions and one back anterior/posterior fusion to date and couldn't be happier with the results. My life has been changing for the better and I can't even put into words how I feel about someone that has so much care, understanding, and patience into "fixing" my body to a point where the bionic woman couldn't even compare. You and your staff are people who not only make you feel like the most important person in the room, but also make sure you are comfortable and calm every step of the way. They should be highly commended for their efforts, hard work, and professionalism. I thank you again and again for everything you have done and continue to do for me. I have seen so much in the medical field that I am actually making a career change, when I get back to work, and taking my computer skills to the medical industry. Thank you again for everything you do!”

Treating Doctor:“I initially chose your practice because of your sports medicine ads. I had a severe knee injury from a skiing mishap. Dr.Torpey was excellent. I made a full recovery. I was very interested in regaining an active lifestyle, not just walking without a limp. Success! I also appreciated not hearing, "Well, you know you are getting older...." Thank you! ”
– Sarah G.
Treating Doctor:“I was delighted with the care and expertise Dr. Gabisan provided to me. I can't speak highly enough about him!”
– Lydia P.
Treating Doctor:“Dr. Gesell is the best of the best! I cannot put into words how pleased I am with the outcome of my total hip replacement surgery. The pain is gone, recovery was quick and nearly pain-free, and I'm ready to schedule my 2nd total hip replacement in the next few weeks. Additionally, I can't say enough about the staff. They are professional, courteous, and work so hard to make the entire process smooth and easy. I have been coming to Professional Orthopaedics for more than 15 years, and all of the doctors and staff are always caring and provide quality service no matter how big or small your injury may be. ”
– Lynnette M.
Treating Doctor:“Dr. Foos has performed rotator cuff surgery on both my shoulders and scoped both my knees and I cannot praise him enough. I've been able to work with my daughter in softball, play golf (attempt to) and live life with no pain in either shoulder or 1 of my knees. I will in time need a knee replacement and the only surgeon I'll consider is Dr. Foos. The office staff in all of the offices are always very friendly and always professional. I would highly recommend Professional Orthopedics to anyone. And I have referred 4 of my friends to them.”
– Ed T.
Treating Doctor:“I had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Gesell. He is extremely nice, and a very compassionate doctor. Because I had such positive experiences, I referred my family members to Professional Orthopaedic Associates as well, and they had the same experience I did. I have nothing but high remarks for Dr. Gesell, Dr. Foos, and Kevin Ruscio, P.A.-C.”
