Read what our patients are saying about Professional Orthopaedic Associates.
“I am one hundred percent cent satisfied with my surgery and all prior and post services. Dr. Gentile spent more time than any other doctor has, answering all of my questions and concerns. He even spent time looking at x rays and my mri from another injury. Then he gave me options and the names of five other doctors that could assist me with this problem. I have now had three surgeries at Professional Orthopedics. Each was a success and a great experience. ”

Treating Doctor:“Dr. Foos is a terrific Doctor that I would highly recommend to anyone (and I have & they agreed)!!! He is very thorough, will listen to all questions and demonstrates patience when treating his patients. He is also has great bedside manner! He took care of my knee (surgery) and he and the staff were amazing!”
Treating Doctor:“After about 10 years of suffering with a bad ankle and having been told by 3 doctors, specialists in the field, that nothing can be done about the fact that my leg bone sat on top of the ankle bone instead of in its socket, I found Dr. Gabisan. He performed an operation November 2013, and now I can walk without pain. Also, for the past 3 days *(beginning March 10), I have only needed 1 cane to walk instead of a walker. Thanks Dr. Gabisan and staff. I hope you enjoyed the basket of fruit I sent to your office on Thanksgiving.”

Treating Doctor:“My mom had hip surgery in 1995 with Dr. Torpey. He was wonderful and she loved him. I had elbow and shoulder surgery in 1998 and 1999. Between the extensive rehabilitation and challenges of getting back to work, Dr. Torpey was a constellation of excellence and compassion. He always took the time to listen with empathy, be supportive, and provide the best care. He is a rare find. I have referred several friends to him, and he has made them better. He is my all time favorite orthopaedic surgeon!”
– Ellen W.
Treating Doctor:“Could not believe that I broke my foot, nonetheless in three places. Dr. Gabisan took excellent care of me, and I would recommend his services to anyone. It was an absolute positive experience. Well, as good as it could be when one is casted!!”

Treating Doctor:“I started going to Dr. Gesell last fall for a rotator cuff injury. He recommended physical therapy and that did the trick. I was told 3 years ago that I had to have total knee surgery for my right knee. So when I knew that the time had come, I returned to Dr. Gesell. I had researched his credentials and saw that he did his residency at the Center for Special Surgery in NYC, where they specialize in knee replacements. I knew that he was the surgeon for me. I had the surgery on January 10, 2014 and it went great! I was home on that Monday and had 2 weeks of in-home therapy before starting outpatient physical therapy. I am now going on 10 weeks post surgery and I'm almost 100%. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Gesell. He was always very attentive to my questions and concerns before and after surgery, easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is considering knee replacement surgery. He's the best!”
– Patti M.
Treating Doctor:“I cannot say how satisfied I am with the service I have always received from Professional Orthopaedic Associates. I have seen other Professional Orthopaedic physicians for various other issues and have always been very satisfied with the care I have received. I cannot say enough about Dr. Foos. He has treated me in the past, performing arthroscopic surgeries, and continues to provide me with excellent and compassionate care. I am very satisfied and cannot say enough about his care. The staff is also very accommodating and cooperative.”
– Lydia P.
Treating Doctor:“Dr. Foos was charming when explaining what my problem was and he made me feel at ease when explaining the treatments that I may have to explore to make my medical issue better.”

Treating Doctor:“Hi Jason, I extend my thanks and appreciation to you for reaching out and discussing my shoulder problem with me. I know you are a busy guy and only know of me through Chris, but nevertheless you took the time to talk to me on three occasions without reservation. It is comforting to me that your interpretation of my shoulder situation is the same as the surgeon down here in Vero Beach. I have pretty much decided to go ahead with the reverse replacement. I know it's a big deal and I have anxiety about it but the thought of living the rest of my life as compromised as I am directs me on only one path. Again, thank you for your input. I look forward to meeting you next time I am in NJ.”
