“I have been a patient of POA for many years. This was my first experience with Dr. Plyler. I found Dr. Plyler to be great. He made me feel most comfortable. He took his time with me and answered all my questions and my wife’s, who was on a conference call due to COVID. I found him to be most compassionate and understanding of my concerns. I feel Dr. Plyler is a definite asset to the practice and will recommend him and POA to all my friends. ”

“Thank you, times two! You are more than just an extraordinary doctor, but a gracious human being too. The first thank you is for successfully treating my leg pain over the past two years. Today I can resume my active lifestyle without stress and physical pain. The second thank you is to express my appreciation for the incredible opportunity to shadow and observe surgery with you. Changing my role as patient to student in your world, although brief, was an experience that made it definite to pursue a career in the healthcare profession. I look forward to more observation opportunities with you. Enjoy the rest of your summer. ”

“Dr. Gentile, I thank you so very much for your super presentation at Toms River East High School on sports injuries. It was truly an honor and a privilege for me to have you and the other presenters take time out of your very busy schedules to drive down to Toms River High School East. Additionally, I consider myself very fortunate to have been able to have you perform the surgery on my injured leg (ruptured patella tendon). You did a fantastic job and I will always be very grateful to you and Professional Orthopaedic Associates. Thank you again for all you have done.”
