Patient Video Reviews

“After about 10 years of suffering with a bad ankle and having been told by 3 doctors, specialists in the field, that nothing can be done about the fact that my leg bone sat on top of the ankle bone instead of in its socket, I found Dr. Gabisan. He performed an operation November 2013, and now I can walk without pain. Also, for the past 3 days *(beginning March 10), I have only needed 1 cane to walk instead of a walker. Thanks Dr. Gabisan and staff. I hope you enjoyed the basket of fruit I sent to your office on Thanksgiving.”

“Well, I came to Professional Orthopaedic Associates having problems with my right shoulder, it turned out to be my right rotator cuff Dr. Gentile took care of it and now I am fine. I also had problems with my back and neck and Dr. Jason Cohen took excellent care of the problem he did my neck first and then he did reconstructive surgery of the Lumbar spine. Afterwards they noticed that my left toe was angled to the left, this was due to a problem with my toe bone, So Dr. Cohen put me in the good hands of Dr. Gabisan and I'm currently healing as we speak. They have a great staff that are more than willing to help you. I'm very Blessed to have found such a great team.”

“Dear Dr. Foos, Here I am with two knees, and I want to thank you for giving me back my life. When I first came to see you, I was in so much pain. Today I feel like a new person and I am finally pain-free. Through it all, you always explained things so that I knew what would happen as well as how and why. You patiently and thoughtfully answered all my questions, even those some might consider silly (zumba and zip lines). You have an incredible staff. They have always been so nice to me. Your assistant, Jennifer, is amazing. She has traveled this journey with me, answering every phone call, every question, every fear I had, always so professional and compassionate. Then there's Laurie, the first person I would see at the reception desk; Colleen, Anthony, and John, who would bring me back to one of the exam rooms or take me for x-rays; Clarinda, who I would see on my way out and make my next appointment; Justine, who gave me those reminder calls. And then, physical therapy -- Tracy is the first person I spoke with at POA PT, and she was so kind and caring; Sheela is an incredible physical therapist and did wonders. And then there is you, Dr. Foos. Thanks to your great surgical skills and knowledge and compassion, you have brought me through this journey. I never thought I would be able to walk and run without pain again, but here I am. THANK YOU!”

“"Dr. Torpey has given me back my mobility and my quality of life twice. Twenty years ago he did bilateral total hip replacement surgery. Nearly five years ago, he did bilateral total knee replacement. Both sets of surgery went extremely well. I have recommended Dr. Torpey to a number of people over the years and will continue to do so. I have always been pleased the care I received. The office staff is some of the best I have ever dealt with, they are always extremely helpful and professional." -- Karen C. ”

“About 3 and a half years ago my hip began hurting me. I first went to see Dr. Bade who quickly recommended that I see the hip surgeon Dr. Torpey. Unfortunately, it turned out that I had a torn labrum. In order for the pain to go away and the situation not to get any worse he recommended that I get surgery. Needless to say, it was a complete success. It's been over a year now and I feel stronger than ever. I lift heavy weights, go rock climbing, run and do what ever I like without hesitation. The whole process with Dr. Torpey was easy, clear and I felt like I was in good hands. Thank you so much!”
