Patient Reviews

“Dr. Gabisan is kind and very caring. He sees his patients on time and never rushes when he is with them. He truly cares about his patients.”

“Had a broken bone in my arm for a month. Had seen another doctor who said it was arthritis. Dr. Bade scheduled surgery within two days. His gentle approach and kindness to me was very much appreciated . It was wonderful to have a professional with such sensitivity perform the surgery. His follow-up assured me that my arm and shoulder would return to normal. In my opinion Dr. Bade rates the highest grade.”

“Dear Dr. Bade, I wanted to thank you from my heart in regards to seeing me and having an MRI done this past Monday. I am happy with the positive news that surgery is not necessary. If I had to get surgery, I thought at least, I’d get the really cool Harry Bade “HB” magic marker signature on my knee like my son did. Thank you for your outstanding skill and kindness. ”

“Dr. Torpey and the team at Professional Orthopaedic Associates saved my life.  I had a rare dislocation - my right sternoclavicular joint was dislocating, and pressing into my throat and affecting the nerves going into my chest.  Before the surgery, I had lost 1.5 liters of my lung volume and had elevated CO2.  I had to go on a home ventilator to lower the CO2 and help me breathe.  The dislocation was so rare that no one knew who could help - then I was referred to Professional Orthopaedic Associates and Dr. Torpey. Dr. Torpey used a donor tendon to secure my collarbone to my sternum.  Within 3 days my chest wall started to move right, and within 2 weeks the CO2 levels stayed down.  Within 4 weeks, I no longer needed the ventilator.  By August I was back to riding my bike.  I am now able to work full time instead of part time. Thanks to Dr. Torpey, I have a second chance, and a healthier life.”

“Before I met Doctor Torpey, whenever I held my two toddlers I had a huge Charlie horse in my leg. It was heart breaking (explaining why I had to put them down), but the toughest part was not knowing why it was so painful. Brian (Doctor Torpey) explained to me what a labrum was and why I had pain for what seemed like no reason at all. As a life-long swimmer, hip pain was new to me. After he explained the procedure and the rehabilitation, I chose the Labrum reconstruction surgery. I was in and out in one afternoon. In my follow up visit, he walked me through the surgery performed (picture by picture) and showed me the repair that was done. After a few months of p/t, and a few visits back to Professional Orthopedic Associates, I was holding and swimming my little ones! As a forty something, a father and professional in the largest healthcare system in New Jersey, I recommend Doctor Brian Torpey for anyone considering labrum surgery. Last night was the St. Dominic’s father daughter dance and my little ones and I were dancing up a storm thanks to Doctor Torpey. I wrote this letter the very next day. Thank you, Dr. Torpey.”

“Enjoyable experience with Dr. Bade. His professional and caring staff. Hip surgery went very well because of this great team. Thank you.”

“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.”

“I've been coming here for years and have had 3 spinal surgeries and 1 wrist (Dr. Gentile who is equally amazing). The front office staff is so friendly, supportive and helpful (in all offices). Treatment team (radiology, nurses and surgical coordinators) are so efficient. They treat you like you're a celebrity. Doctors are so approachable, friendly and of course professional and very talented. When I went for a second opinion at a major teaching hospital, they wouldn't touch my back, saying that they respected Dr. Cohen's technique and wouldn't do anything different.”

“Dear Dr. Torpey, Thank you so much for everything! I truly appreciate all of your kindness! I will never forget what you've done for me.”

“Dr. Parker is the best. This was my first time visiting, and I felt at ease and relaxed. He is easy to talk to and has an enjoyable manner of treating his patients. Thank you for the great experience.”
