Read what our patients are saying about Professional Orthopaedic Associates.
“The care and compassion I received from all of those I dealt with at Professional Orthopaedic Associates was a treat. Dr. Gesell replaced a knee for me and relieved the carpal tunnel pain I dealt with after the knee replacement, double whammy. Shortly after those issues, I was in an auto accident and shattered my arm. Thanks to Dr. Johnson, that injury was fixed. These people are sincere, good at what they do, and a pleasure to be around. I have regained an active lifestyle and look forward to having the other knee replaced. (Not really.) The best care by local professionals. Why go anywhere else? Thank you to Drs. Gesell and Johnson, and all of the women that took care of me.”

Treating Doctor:“Always seen promptly. Dr. Bade explains everything and makes you feel comfortable. I always recommend your Practice to anyone looking for an orthopedic doctor.”
– Lynda W.
Treating Doctor:“Dr. Gentile is always friendly, explains your injury goes over test results and treatment options. He understands not everyone has a medical background, so the pieces parts together to give you examples and explanations. He also realizes that people must also be able to work and considers that in his treatment recommendations. He is willing to speak to insurance companies and attempt to get the needed treatment for his patients.”
– Nancy T.
Treating Doctor:“Thank you for all that you have done for me while working on my knee. It was a long recovery, but well worth it. I truly would not trust any other person to perform that procedure on such short notice. I will continue to stretch and take good care of it. I am looking forward to a healthy and successful 2017 lacrosse season. I can not thank you enough.”
– Steven M.
Treating Doctor:“Excellent experience with this dr. He took time to evaluate my issue and provided me a good plan for getting better on my own but if that doesn't work then we have a surgical plan as well. Much appreciated! Thank you!!!!”

Treating Doctor:“I have had good experience with all the staff. The Doctor was more than I thought I was going to get and by that I mean you do not always have a good outcome. As of today, I'm happy with how everything is going.”
