Patient Reviews: Dr. David Gentile

“Dr. Gentile is not only a professional, he is a kind and compassionate human being. Dr. Gentile listens to his patients concerns and without judgement, provides multiple options for the patient to explore before making their decision what course of action to take regarding their injury. Thank you, Dr. Gentile!”

“Nicholas was in great hands! We were very happy and appreciative with the surgery and after care that he received. He is on the mend and hopefully ready to play baseball again!”

“I can't say enough about the experience my son and I had with Dr. Gabisan and the entire staff. My son came in as an emergency and ended up needing surgery that same evening. From the front desk with their warm welcome and efficient demeanor, to the X-ray staff, handling my son with care and respect. This was all new to me, and Dr. Gabisan's surgical coordinator, Rosanne, walked me through it all, with recommendations and patience. I can't say enough about the doctor himself. He explained all options, let me know what he considered the best course of action, and was able to keep us both calm in the process. My son is recovering beautifully, and the surgery was a resounding success!  ”

“Not a bad one in the bunch! I saw Dr. Gesell for knee pain. He gave me a needle which I didn't even feel a pinch. I call this my six-month lub job. Dr. Gabisan removed a bone spur above my big toe this fall. I felt like I was at a spa. I was given heated blankets and a TV in my room. The staff was excellent as was my doctor. I was back to walking my dogs in a couple of days. I didn't need pain meds but took a couple of advil. I would recommend this procedure in a heartbeat.”

“Dr. Gesell is a very personable and professional in his field. I would highly recommend him.”

“Dr. Gesell and his entire staff made my surgery experience go more smoothly that I could have possibly imagined. From the very first time I contacted Professional Orthopaedic Associates, I was treated with courtesy and respect in a friendly and professional manner. I underwent a total hip replacement on January 8, 2016, and was home on January 10, 2016. The hospital staff were wonderful to me and made the whole experience extremely positive. I feel so good, physically and emotionally, with my new hip. It's just incredible to be pain free and healing so quickly. Thanks to everyone at Professional Orthopaedic Associates for a wonderful experience!”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Gentile for 20 years. He is absolutely the best.”

“Dr. Gentile was very gentle and made me feel comfortable and not afraid of the shot.”

“Dr. Foos and his staff treated me with the personal care you sometimes do not get in the medical field any longer. Dr. Foos took the time to sit and speak to me not only about my injury but also about my medical history. He developed a plan for me and gave me all of my options for care and treatment and the choice was mine. It was not just a "lets go in and cut". I would recommend Dr. Foos as an example to all in the medical field. I feel like I have a friend when we speak and there is no fear or hesitation when going to a visit. A+A+A+”

“Dr. Gesell did a knee replacement on me and the experience was surprising. As with any surgery of this magnitude you expect a lot of pain. I had next to none which was very unusual according to a number of friends who had the same procedure. As a lot of people do, I put off the operation for fear of what I would have to go through. If you have to go through it this is the way to go. P.S.  I think the great x-rays taken at the office helped too!”

“From the minute that I walked in I was treated very professionally. Dr. Johnson is the best doctor!!! ”

“Dr. Cohen did my back surgery. I had a pinched nerve and some disc problems which was causing extreme pain to my left leg. Surgery went very well! Shortly after back surgery, while recovering at home, I fell and broke my wrist.   Dr. Johnson did my wrist surgery. Surgery went very well! Happy to say I am back to life as normal with no pain.”

“I have been seeing Dr. Gentile for YEARS and I love him. He takes a measured approach and wants to try everything non-invasive first. My brother needed shoulder surgery this summer, he took my advice and saw Dr. Gentile who confirmed what everyone was telling him (much to his chagrin). Unfortunately, he's a good hour north and he found a doctor closer to home. But hearing it from someone he trusted, was all he needed. Dr. Gentile is never allowed to retire.  ;)”

“I fell and broke my wrist. Scheduled surgery with Dr. Johnson at the Surgery Center and was well take care of before Dr. Johnson performed surgery. Afterwards, I was in a lot of pain and was well taken care of again at the Surgery Center. He put in a plate and 8 pins. It amazing my wrist is fine. I recommend Dr. Johnson, besides being a great surgeon he is a sweet person. Sounds silly, but that is how I think of Dr. Johnson—he's such a sweet person.”

“I can't thank Dr. Bade enough for his professionalism as well as compassion. From my first visit, diagnosis, surgery and post-op care, Dr. Bade has been amazing. His staff is also very pleasant and helpful. I will definitely recommend Dr. Bade and his associates.”

“My injuries required a tag team effort from Dr. Gabisan and Dr. Gesell. After successfully repairing my fractured fibula, broken ankle, and torn patella tendon, I am on the long road to recovery and rehab. Both doctors I and the whole staff have been incredible the entire process! Always helpful and responsive addressing any questions or concerns and making sure my needs are met. I am glad I chose Professional Orthopaedic Associates!”

“I have been with Professional Orthopedics and Dr. Foos for 16 years and find that he has been great in treating me for my knees, shoulder, and hip. I also see Dr. Gabisan for my right foot that has problems, and he has helped me along the way and he also has been great with me. I also have seen Dr. Swick, which I first had seen and helped me along the way. I have found the doctors and staff to be exceptional and I have recommended them to all my friends.”

“Excellent care.”

“Everyone is so sweet and helpful. They make you feel so comfortable. Very professional!!”

“The atmosphere of the office is so positive that no matter what hurts you don't mind walking in there. The staff is pleasant, efficient, and an asset to the doctors that work there. Dr. Gabisan is a professional gentleman who diagnoses properly and takes good care of me. I have recommended this office to many friends. Thank you.”

“We have been patients of Dr. Bade for 21 years. He has done 6 knee surgeries and 1 hand surgery on Lou and 2 hip surgeries and 1 hand surgery on Judy. Dr. Bade is just the best – his surgical skills are unsurpassed and his manner and the time he takes to explain everything is excellent. We would  highly recommend him to anyone in need of an excellent surgeon. His office assistant, John, is also very capable, friendly and helpful. We recently had the experience to meet with and confer with Dr. Gesell and were equally impressed with him. He was also very informative and highly qualified. We would not consider going to New York or anyplace else when we have the best right here.”

“Dr. Foos is one of the best in the world! Within 5 minutes of meeting him I knew I would be in great hands for a rotator cuff repair. Every time I met with him I never felt like he was in a rush to get to his next patient. His team is the same way, they are helpful and always have time for me. I highly recommend Dr. Foos if you want the best!”

“I had gone to another physician before seeing Dr. Gabisan, and he told me right away that I would most likely have to go for surgery before even seeing the MRI. Dr. Gabisan said I did not have to have surgery after seeing the MRI and just had me wear a boot and within about 5 months I was healed. He was a very calming and relaxed doctor which made me feel very comfortable.”

“Dr. Gesell replaced my left knee and I couldn't be more pleased. He is thorough, kind & very competent. I was only in the hospital for one night & had no pain whatsoever. I would recommend him to my family and friends. I'm a little over 8 weeks out and doing great. I've been back to pilates since week 3 and also doing therapy 3x a week. All in all, it's been a very positive experience.”

“The staff is polite both at Freehold and Tinton Falls. Scheduled appointments are met at a reasonable time. Dr. Torpey was wonderful.”
