Patient Reviews

“Dr. Gesell replaced my right hip in August; surgery went as he described it, and I've had no complications thus far. I experienced minimal pain, it was more a feeling of discomfort as I learned how to move around during the first few days after the surgery. My mobility has improved significantly each day since surgery. I would recommend Dr Gesell to anyone who is considering joint replacement.”

“Dr. Gesell and his staff were professional and patiently answered all of my questions. I am 115 days post surgery with and I am pleased with the results. I am able to walk downstairs without taking them one at a time. Dr. Gesell operated with a robot assist and used glue instead of staples on closing the surgical wound which made for a simple, tasteful scar. I was nervous about the surgery but my fears were put to rest and I'm happy that I decided to have it. Luckily I only needed one knee replaced but I would definitely use Dr. Gesell again should I need to replace the other knee in the future. The staff at the group is warm and efficient and I never had to wait more than 10 minutes to be seen. Overall this was a positive experience and I would recommend Dr. Gesell to anyone in need of a new knee. ”

“Although it has been a long road to recovery, I couldn't be more pleased with Dr. Johnson and the entire office staff. Everything you need is right at your finger tips. Nothing is too much trouble for anyone working there to do for you. From refilling a prescription to figuring out an insurance question, the staff make it known that they are at your disposal. One thing that I really appreciated very much is the no wait time for an appointment. It seems you just sign in and you are being seen by Dr. Johnson. Dr. Johnson is extremely caring and reassuring in his assessment of your specific problem. Kudos to an extremely well run and organized office.”

“Knowledgeable with my problem, and also kind and caring. I can't say enough good things about this doctor! ”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Foos for over 10 years. He performed surgery on both my shoulder and knee. I have found him to be a true professional. He has been both conservative and informative with my treatment. I will continue to see him with any other orthopaedic issues.”

“Had knee replacement 4 years ago Dr. Foos told it me exactly what was gong to happen from beginning to end and boy was he right went from loving him to hating him to loving him again..... he was wonderful.... bedside manner excellent..... recommend him whenever I can he is an excellent doctor.”

“Dr. Johnson treated me when I fractured my wrist. He was patient and knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and put me at ease when surgery was indicated. Through pre-surgery, operation, and post-surgery, he was always available to answer any questions and check on me during rehab. I'll certainly enthusiastically recommending Dr. Johnson.”

“I am an Equine Dentist and am 59 years old. In 2007, I fractured my collarbone in a horse related accident. Because of the nature of my occupation, it’s imperative that I have full range of motion of all my extremities. The recovery required a surgery performed by Dr. Johnson. He inserted a plate and 5 screws to repair my collarbone. In about 7 months, he removed the plate. Thanks to Dr. Johnson and therapist Shelia, I made a full recovery. Then about a year ago, I developed a problem in my knee. The pain was excruciating and I could barely walk, let alone work. Again, my job is extremely physical and requires the use of your entire body, from fingers to toes. Again, I visited Dr. Johnson and he repaired my knee surgically. I was back doing moderate work on horses in 10 days. Shelia was supervising my rehab and helping me get back my range of motion. Of course, it took time to recover. My knee got stronger and my range of motion came back as the weeks went by. Now, a year later, my knee is perfect. I have no pain and have complete range of motion. I am on my feet all day long, doing strenuous work, working most days, and my knee never bothers me at all. As a matter of fact, I would say it’s the best part of me. As far as I am concerned, these people are the best in the business. I recommend them all the time to people with orthopaedic issues and would call on them again if I ever have another problem. They are truly healers and take a genuine concern about their patients well being. If it was not for them, I would not have been able to continue my career as an Equine Dentist. Thank you again, Dr. Johnson and Shelia.”

“Dr. Gentile, Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to experience what the field of orthopaedics is really like. I am very grateful that you allowed me to work with you for the past eight weeks. You explained so much and really included me during the appointments. I was able to absorb information and have experiences that I could never get from a classroom. You were truly a great mentor! Thank you of accommodating my schedule. I appreciate the efforts you made to allow me to accompany you into surgery. It was something I really wanted to see! I'm glad my memories of my first surgeries will have been with you. I had a lot of fun, and I will take this experience with me into my future. I believe that there will be a day in my career that I'll be working with a patient and remember something that I learned from you. Thank you again! This really meant so much to me.”
