Read what our patients are saying about Professional Orthopaedic Associates.
“Dr. Foos is outstanding. Upon initial examination, he gives you an honest assessment along with distinct options concerning your treatment. You are advised both before and after surgery, and along with his support staff, a stressful situation is made as easy as possible. He called the day after surgery to make sure things were going well. The level of care is exceptional. He is highly recommended.”

“I came to Professional Orthopaedic Associates office due to a serious knee issue. After my visits with Dr. Chris Johnson, I was referred to Dr. Mark Gesell for further treatment. I was unable to walk without a cane and eventually crutches. Dr. Gesell was extremely communicative and understanding with me. We tried the Suparts knee shots first, which I wanted, and after that needed to proceed to knee surgery. I had a partial knee replacement in March 2014 and was standing and walking that same day! I was in no pain and left the hospital the next afternoon. My experience at the hospital and with Dr. Gesell was 100% positive. Today, in October, I am a new person. I can now exercise, garden all day long, walk without any cane, help or pain, this after over a year on crutches. I will always be grateful to Dr. Gesell for helping me to return to a normal happy life.”

Treating Doctor:“Dr Bade! How can I describe my experience with the ultimate professional? This is on doctor that actually still practices by a moral code. My problems were always addressed and Dr Bade never rushed through any of my appointments before or after shoulder surgery. I had forgotten what it was like to have such an incredible physcian. Hands on and actually palpates. My appointments were always on time and each visit was non threatening. The staff is friendly and caring and always manage to work with you should an issue arise. I can't see myself going to another Orthopaedic Doctor after being at Professional Ortho. They definitely are worthy of the name professional.”

“I had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Gesell. He is extremely nice, and a very compassionate doctor. Because I had such positive experiences, I referred my family members to Professional Orthopaedic Associates as well, and they had the same experience I did. I have nothing but high remarks for Dr. Gesell, Dr. Foos, and Kevin Ruscio, P.A.-C.”

“This was my first meeting with Dr. Nicholson. He was very thorough and informative. Dr. Nicholson explained the condition and outlined two possible solutions. He is very easy to talk with and was interested in listening to my questions. I knew I made the right choice. Glad I met him.”
