“Love Dr. G. I would not have had the same outcome if I had another doctor. Great doctor, great person. I alway feel he really cares about me as a patient.”
– Kathleen P.
Treating Doctor:“Dr. Foos has performed rotator cuff surgery on both my shoulders and scoped both my knees and I cannot praise him enough. I've been able to work with my daughter in softball, play golf (attempt to) and live life with no pain in either shoulder or 1 of my knees. I will in time need a knee replacement and the only surgeon I'll consider is Dr. Foos. The office staff in all of the offices are always very friendly and always professional. I would highly recommend Professional Orthopedics to anyone. And I have referred 4 of my friends to them.”
– Ed T.

Treating Doctor:“Dr. Gesell was great. He thoroughly explained the problem I had with my broken hip and covered the options for my recovery. The surgery went well, and I was up and about in no time. I was back on my bicycle within three weeks of feeling beautiful.”
– Carl H.
Treating Doctor:“Wonderful , never waited more then 10 minutes in lobby. Dr. Foos knew within 2 minutes what the problem was and booked a MRI that day. I had a MRI 3 days later, and a confirmed meniscus tear. We set up surgery, which he did on a day he doesn't do surgery to accommodative me. Would and have recommended Professional Orthopaedic Associates to others.”
– Sean R.
Treating Doctor:“17 years ago, I first saw Dr. Bade following a skiing accident, which injured my left shoulder. Following x-rays, it was determined I had damaged my rotator cuff. Rather than move towards surgery, he recommended I start with physical therapy. He insisted to see if that would solve the problem, bring back my range of motion and ultimately relieve the pain. It worked and I never forgot that option to avoid surgery.Now nearly 20 years later, I again came to see him for a second opinion. I was experiencing recurring pain in my left hip and another orthopaedic surgeon was recommending a total hip replacement after seeing me one time. Again, Dr. Bade, upon reviewing my x-rays, did not believe surgery was necessary at this stage and that I should begin a process of exercise and therapy to see if I could find relief that way. Here I am, 7 months later and pain free with the old hip. I can't say enough good things about this group!”
