Patient Video Reviews

  • “Dr. Gentile, Thank you for putting my wrist back together. I know it was done with careful attention to optimal healing. I get better everyday, thanks to your expertise. Thank you.”

    – John K.

  • “In May 2008 and we began the odyssey of repairing my horrendous spine. My neck surgery in July 2008 was a 100% success in less than three months. Seven months later my lower spine surgery was complete. By November, I was starting to have many days with no pain at all. You have given me back my life and my dignity, Dr. Cohen. You are a gift to my life and may you be blessed for making me human again. My 'thank you' seems so small compared to all youve done, but it comes from my heart.”

    – Phyllis S.

    Treating Doctor:
  • “Dear Dr. Bade, How can someone thank a wonderful, caring and exceptionally talented doctor for all he has done to help you? All I could think of is something sweet, homemade from the heart. Thanks for everything you have done (for my knee).”

    – Robin M.

  • “Dear Dr. Johnson, I cant thank you enough- seriously. You went above and beyond to help me (with my carpal tunnel syndrome and chronic tennis elbow) and Ill never forget it. Thanks to you I am sleeping again without agonizing pain. You truly are a wonderful person.”

    – Michelle L.

  • “Please forward this email to the GREAT Dr. Harry Bade as he is the wizard who performed my partial knee replacement in 2005 and look at what I'm doing 5 years later. I sing the praises of Dr. Bade every time someone comments on how high I jump (not bad for a 46yr old, huh?). Because of you Dr. Bade, I continue to have great success with my career as an Early Childhood Music and Movement Performer/Educator!! THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH!!!”

    – Scott L.

  • “Dear Dr. Foos, You performed a miracle with my knee  I feel great! Thank you for a successful surgery and for always being willing to answer questions and explain things. PS: Thank you also to your wonderful team, especially Jennifer, who always returns my calls and is patient with me, and to the rest of your professional and wonderful staff. Thank you!”

    – Doris F.

    Treating Doctor:
  • “Dear Dr. Torpey, I am writing this letter to thank you. After seeing many other doctors, I had resigned myself to the fact that I would be spending the rest of my life in pain. Then I came to see you and it felt like such a huge burden had been lifted from me. You lifted my spirits and have given me something to look forward to, and have given me hope that you will find and fix the injuries that have been causing me all this pain. Thank you for listening to everything I said. Thank you for showing compassion and concern. Thank you for not timing your visit. I am very happy that I came to see you. I am giving your name to everyone I know who has any orthopaedic issues.”

    – Victoria D.

    Treating Doctor:
  • “As an avid racquetball player, I have had many injuries over the years. I just can't say enough about Dr. Foos. Dr. Foos has successfully operated on me four times for bones spurs in my elbow and shoulder and also a knee arthroscopy. The staff was phenomenal and the surgery-center was just fantastic. They combined to make each experience very easy. I look forward to many more years on the racquetball court!”

    – M. DelCollo

    Treating Doctor:
  • “Dr. Gentile, I thank you so very much for your super presentation at Toms River East High School on sports injuries. It was truly an honor and a privilege for me to have you and the other presenters take time out of your very busy schedules to drive down to Toms River High School East. Additionally, I consider myself very fortunate to have been able to have you perform the surgery on my injured leg (ruptured patella tendon). You did a fantastic job and I will always be very grateful to you and Professional Orthopaedic Associates. Thank you again for all you have done.”

    – R. Devito

  • “Dr. Johnson, I am just so thankful that you fixed my knee. If it weren't for you, I don't think I'd be playing soccer for the Red Bulls right now. After my therapy, I started and lead my high school team to the states. I had the most assists in the league and was named to the honorable mention all county team. You and (PT) Sheila saved my soccer career. We just got finished playing with the U-17 US National team. I also went to Florida to play in a national showcase. If it weren't for you I wouldn't be experiencing all of these unforgettable moments. I'm really grateful for what you have done. Thanks again for everything!”
