Read what our patients are saying about Professional Orthopaedic Associates.
“When I first moved here from northern NJ, I had to find an orthopedic doctor. I googled "orthopedic doctors in Ocean County," and read patient reviews. I selected POA due to the discussions and T.R. location. Dr. Bade has been my doctor since then. He is a kind, careful, caring, extremely knowledgeable, and takes his time to explain all to me and gives excellent advice too — one of my favorite doctors since moving.”

“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!!!!”

“Dr. Torpey is a consummate professional with an exceptional bedside manner. I had a total hip replacement, the pain is gone, and I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. The operation went well, and at follow-up appointments, he answers all of my questions, and I never feel rushed. I would highly recommend Dr. Torpey to anyone. ”

“This was my 3rd surgery with Dr. Foos. As usual, Dr. Foos was great and the whole process was quick, efficient and virtually pain-free. I was back on court playing tennis in 6 weeks.”

“Dear Dr. Cohen, I would like to take this time to say thank you. Through both of my spinal surgeries (one for spinal stenosis in my lower back) you made me feel at ease and confident that my physical condition would vastly improve. You are not only a master surgeon, technically, but you are a really great physician. You care for the complete patient and that makes all the difference in the world. You showed respect and understanding for my spiritual an physical concerns, which I sincerely appreciate. I just want to say that I appreciate all that you've done for me and you are THE BEST!!! I hope that my surgery days are past. Continue being the doctor that you are, a fine and excellent surgeon, a great teacher and a caring person. May you continue to have a successful career but most of all, may you have a successful and Blessed life.”

Treating Doctor:“Highly recommend. The entire team is excellent. They’re professionals as the experience from start to finish was flawless. It’s a rare find when you know they care and go the extra mile to help. Doctor Nicholson is a league of his own. He took time to explain and walk me thru the next steps and timeframe. Kathy in finance is amazing. I’ve been thru a number of surgeries and health issues. I’ve never been treated so well. ”
