Patient Reviews

“I met Dr. Bade over15 years ago when he operated on my knee. I had previously gone for a first opinion to another orthopaedic doctor. When I explained that the other doctor wanted to realign my knee, Dr.  Bade strongly disagreed and said that I should not allow anyone to do that. He explained that the knee is like a traverse rod that runs smoothly. When you realign it, it will not run as smoothly as it should. I felt comfortable with the advise he gave me and he did my surgery soon after. Well, Dr. Bade was correct. It's been at least 15 or more years since then and I haven't had any problems since then. In recent years, I have gone to him for a hip problem and more recently, a shoulder problem. His careful examinations and correct diagnosis of my problems have been the key to my successful health outcome in each case. I have recommended Dr. Bade to many of my friends and coworkers in the Manalapan school system over the years and everyone has come back to thank me for recommending him. They all feel lucky to have found such a good and honest man as well as the best orthopaedic surgeon in our area. I might add that he never rushes you during his office visits. He takes as long as necessary to complete his diagnosis and he also takes the time to chat about life in general. I like that in a doctor. Most doctors today barely give you a chance to speak and rush you out the door. Dr. Bade is not that type of doctor. He is so respectful.”

“Dr. Bade was very thorough and took the time to explain everything. He was friendly and put my worries at ease. ”

“Dr. Gabisan is very professional, knowledgeable and highly experienced. He is very kind and attentive to his patients' needs. I would highly recommend this fellowship trained doctor if you are considering a foot or ankle surgery.”

“Comprehensive and very kind bedside manner. Took the time to go through all issues.”

“Dr. Foos is one of the best in the world! Within 5 minutes of meeting him I knew I would be in great hands for a rotator cuff repair. Every time I met with him I never felt like he was in a rush to get to his next patient. His team is the same way, they are helpful and always have time for me. I highly recommend Dr. Foos if you want the best!”

“As an avid outdoor sportsman and active volunteer in two organizations that promotes Conservation of our NJ Natural Resources through the use of proper forestry stewardship, hunting, fishing and trapping, it was too painful to maintain my sports and volunteerism with the constant pain in my knee, hip, and lower back. Knowing that I had bone on bone in my knee, I opted to visit Dr. Gesell after attending one of his seminars on Robotic Surgery. He recommended that I get an epidural spinal injection. I had the injection preformed this morning by a doctor at the Premier Pain Center, also a recommendation by Dr. Gesell, and now after 5 hours, I am 95% pain free. Thank you, Dr. Gesell.”

“Excellent care and a very knowledgable physician.”

“My first visit to Professional Orthopaedic Associates was a pleasant one.  Prompt and professional.  I did not expect such quick service, but glad I chose this practice over others in network.  Thank you.”

“Total Knee Replacement...Great doctor. After 7 months, my new knee is awesome. I have recommended Dr. Gesell to several of my friends.”

“Dr. Torpey has performed three surgical procedures on me. I have been to many different doctors but have never been more satisfied than with him. He is always very professional. He explains the details in a manner that helps me get a better understanding of what is being done. My results have been great. I can only hope I never have to see him again, but have and will continue to recommend him as much as possible.”
