Patient Reviews

“Been remiss is getting to you. I wanted to thank all in the office of Professional Orthopaedic Associates for your kindness, professionalism, and demeanors. Everyone was pleasant and efficient from the front office to billing to nursing staff. Additionally, big thanks to Dr. Gesell who lived to his word. I asked if I could be dancing at my son’s wedding six weeks from my surgery on March 21 and he delivered! Again, thank you all and I would recommend your practice to anyone.”

“Dr. Gentile performed a "miracle." The pain in both my wrists is completely gone. I will be back, if any new problem arises. Thank you!”

“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.”

“Dear Doctor Gentile: Thank you for all of your help in my accident recovery efforts. I am happy with my treatments at the POA, and am grateful you performed my surgery. Your understanding of both my accident & surgery recovery processes is appreciated and has undoubtedly contributed to my progress. Many thanks for your professionalism and expertise during this challenging time for me.”

“This office is run the most efficient I have seen. The staff is nice, professional and courteous. I work in an office so I know how hard it is to manage and maintain this. Dr. Gesell is on the top of my list as far as doctors go. He is nice,professional and listens. He did my hip two years ago and I had no problems after surgery at all. He will be doing my knee when I decide to have it done.”

“I was very impressed. When Dr. Parker entered the exam room, I felt comfortable. He listened to and answered all my questions. He was very caring. I didn't feel rushed.”

“Dr. Nicholson handled everything professionally, and all options were explained clearly.”

“Dr. Parker has a wonderful and caring bedside manner. I was in terrible pain in my knee, and Dr. Parker gave me a cortisone shot and a prescription for physical therapy along with a topical anti-inflammatory. Dr. Parker reached out to me himself about my prescription. I highly recommend him.”

“Dr. Torpey is professional, compassionate, and always personable. His care is exemplary and because of him, I have avoided the need for a joint replacement for nine years.”

“Dr. Parker was very patient and understanding of my nervousness about the procedure, and he put me at ease. He took time to review my X-rays and answer all my questions.”
