Patient Reviews

“When your child breaks a bone, it is a terrifying experience. Unfortunately, my son, Matthew, age 12, broke both bones in his right forearm and experienced a great deal of pain. After being treated at the hospital emergency room, Matthew needed follow-up care from a caring and experienced orthopedist. I asked many friends and family members and they recommended Professional Orthopedists and gave them great reviews. My son and I met with Dr. Johnson and his staff and he was treated with such care, it immediately put us at ease. The technician and nurse who x-rayed Matthew were knowledgeable and gentle, and helped him deal with the pain that he was in. Dr. Johnson then met with us and reassured us that Matthew would have a full recovery. He explained the x-rays in terms that we could understand and showed us how the bones could heal without having to go through surgery. Dr. Johnson used a hard cast to ensure that the bones were set in a corrective position- something that we couldn't imagine when we first saw the x-rays. His sense of humor and great bedside manner kept my 12-year-old son in good spirits, while he kept a nervous mom informed and at ease. At the one week follow-up visit, we met with Dr. Gesell, Dr Johnson's partner. He was also equally caring and professional. Dr. Gesell showed us the follow-up x-rays and showed us how the bones were repairing themselves and were back in a healthy and stable position to fuse back together. Words cannot describe how grateful we are to be in the care of such skilled and professional doctors. Matthew is expected to have a full recovery, which is just amazing after all that he went through. To see him smile and laugh means the world to us. We know that the care he received at Professional Orthopedists made all the difference to him and our family.”

“Dr. Giliberti was very thorough and informative, explaining everything in regards to my back problems. ”

“Dr. Plyler is the best. He listens to what you have to say about the injury. Very easy to talk to and did a great job.”

“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!”

“Dr. Gentile diagnosed me with compartment syndrome. He performed bilateral compartment release surgery to release the pressure in both of my legs. He gave thorough explanations about the process for the surgery as well as the recuperation period. Dr. Gentile is my hero. After 7 months of not being able to play softball, I look forward to getting back on the field in a few weeks thanks to Dr. Gentile's help. Special thanks to everyone at Professional Orthopedics for making this ordeal more tolerable.”

“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!”

“Dear Dr. Torpey, Sept. 21 was my one year anniversary since I had a major shoulder rotator cuff surgery. I just want to thank you for being an amazing doctor! Now, a year later, at age 41, weight 162 pounds, I’m back to crossfit and Jiu Jitsu. I couldn’t be happier with my results and I keep getting stronger and training harder than yesterday!! ”

“The staff is always pleasant and helpful. I have had wonderful experiences with all my appointments. Dr. Nicholson was so pleasant and gave me all of the information that was possible to provide with all of my options. His injection technique was also wonderful. When I am ready for the shoulder replacement, he will be hearing from me. ”

“Dr. Bade, Thank you for taking such good care of my elbow tendinitis this summer. Without you or my physical therapist, Steven, I would not feel nearly as good as I do now! I truly appreciate everything. I hope all is well. And thanks again!”

“Always very informative and listens.”
