“I came to see Dr. Gentile with two hand problems, right thumb and left middle finger. My first appointment was a shot to see if the problem would resolve. My second appointment was to decide if I needed the middle finger surgically fixed. Dr. Gentile made the decision easy for me, explained the procedure thoroughly and assured me the outcome would be a fixed finger. The scheduling was smooth, the nursing staff was great, and the office help were efficient. They remembered my name, which was essential to me. All in all, a very positive experience. ”

“Dr. Foos is, in my opinion, the best ortho doctor in the entire area. I live in Florida now, and I still come to NJ to see Dr. Foos if I have issues that need. He is frank, gentle, all-knowing and I trust him fully on his diagnosis of any bone pain I may have. I have been going to him for years as are my grown children and their children. Dr. Foos is my family's official "bone" doctor.”

“This office is run the most efficient I have seen. The staff is nice, professional and courteous. I work in an office so I know how hard it is to manage and maintain this. Dr. Gesell is on the top of my list as far as doctors go. He is nice,professional and listens. He did my hip two years ago and I had no problems after surgery at all. He will be doing my knee when I decide to have it done.”
