“He is professional, but friendly. He provided all the information I needed and answered all my questions. He preformed shoulder surgery with great results (so far).”

“I came to see Dr. Gentile with two hand problems, right thumb and left middle finger. My first appointment was a shot to see if the problem would resolve. My second appointment was to decide if I needed the middle finger surgically fixed. Dr. Gentile made the decision easy for me, explained the procedure thoroughly and assured me the outcome would be a fixed finger. The scheduling was smooth, the nursing staff was great, and the office help were efficient. They remembered my name, which was essential to me. All in all, a very positive experience. ”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Bade since 1982 when he did a carpal tunnel operation on my right wrist. That I have been his patient for 33 years, says something about the doctor. I have also seen Dr. Johnson, who I also like.”

“I have been a patient of POA for many years. This was my first experience with Dr. Plyler. I found Dr. Plyler to be great. He made me feel most comfortable. He took his time with me and answered all my questions and my wife’s, who was on a conference call due to COVID. I found him to be most compassionate and understanding of my concerns. I feel Dr. Plyler is a definite asset to the practice and will recommend him and POA to all my friends. ”
