  • “Please forward this email to the GREAT Dr. Harry Bade as he is the wizard who performed my partial knee replacement in 2005 and look at what I'm doing 5 years later. I sing the praises of Dr. Bade every time someone comments on how high I jump (not bad for a 46yr old, huh?). Because of you Dr. Bade, I continue to have great success with my career as an Early Childhood Music and Movement Performer/Educator!! THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH!!!”

  • “Dear Dr. Bade, I want to thank you for my recent successful right shoulder surgery and also for my previous rotator cuff surgery on my left shoulder in 2010.  Both surgeries enabled me to be pain-free, with increased flexibility and mobility; not previously present. Any trained surgeon can do a good job; you however are an extremely articulate & skilled surgeon which has made all the different in my surgical outcome.  I thank you for your superior dedication, skills and knowledge of all the intricate complexities of this type of surgery. You are a hero in the orthopaedic field, making a difference in the lives of many people.  ”

  • “My story started May 2012, when my muscle on my left knee detached from my bone. I went to the ER first, then to Professional Orthopaedic Associates. I saw Dr. Gentile, who took a MRI. After seeing the results, he set a date to operate. All that I told him was that I did not want to know anything at the time of the operation. True to his word, I did not feel anything. I came out of the operation feeling good. His professionalism, knowledge, and compassion, made me feel safe and confidant at the follow-ups. He gave me confidence to dance and to walk on my leg again I would highly recommend Dr. Gentile and his staff for any orthopaedic needs. Thank you.”

  • “Dr. Gabisan was great; he provided a diagnosis and thoroughly explained all of my option about the ruptured Achilles tendon. I have complete confidence in Dr. Gabisan as he will perform surgery to repair the ligament. ”

  • “Dr. Bade highly recommended for my knee surgery. My experience at his office and surgery center was amazing, and the staff at both locations were friendly, efficient, and caring. I recommend Professional Orthopaedic Associates. My surgery was a success! If you want a relaxing, clean, and friendly environment with a low risk of infection, this is a 5-star facility! Thank you, Dr. Bade and staff. Special thanks to Patty Orlando, the surgical coordinator!”

  • “I suffered with knee pain for quite a long time before being referred to Dr. Foos. He spoke to me, had me have x-rays and a MRI. He found that I had a torn meniscus in my left knee. I had never had surgery before and was nervous to fix my knee. Dr. Foos performed an arthroscopic procedure. Since he helped me, I have not had any pain in my knee at all. He advised me that my right knee also needed the same treatment. The x-rays had shown a slight slanting of both my kneecaps. Two years after my first procedure, he did the same procedure to my right knee. I am grateful for Dr. Foos and all the staff in that office. They were nothing but kind, happy, and reassuring. It was such a great experience that I recommend this practice constantly. I only wish other doctor visits for other reasons were as pleasant. After rehab (with Sheila) within the same practice, I have full range of motion in both my knees. I am one happy and content patient. I work two jobs and I am a single mom, and I thank God for you all for making me better so I can work.  Thank you.”

  • “DR. Johnson is just wonderful!  My daughter, Ana, now age 8, has been a patient of Dr. Johnson's since she was 5!  For a little one, going to the Doctor isn't always the easiest experience.  However, to sum up how awesome Dr. Johnson is, my daughter, on her own had written ( at age 5 on the table paper while waiting in the examining room), "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, Dr. Johnson is awesome, and Ila is, too! ( Ila, is his amazing OT).  Thank you Professional Orthopedics for your outstanding care!”

  • “I fell and sprained my ankle. When I called, the staff quickly found an appointment for me later that day and were very friendly. They made me feel at ease and comfortable. Dr. Johnson explained what was wrong with my ankle, how we were going to treat it, and took time to answer all my questions. Thank you Professional Orthopaedic Associates.”
