“DR. Johnson is just wonderful! My daughter, Ana, now age 8, has been a patient of Dr. Johnson's since she was 5! For a little one, going to the Doctor isn't always the easiest experience. However, to sum up how awesome Dr. Johnson is, my daughter, on her own had written ( at age 5 on the table paper while waiting in the examining room), "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, Dr. Johnson is awesome, and Ila is, too! ( Ila, is his amazing OT). Thank you Professional Orthopedics for your outstanding care!”

“Dr. Bade performed an arthroscopic surgery on my knee after I suffered cartilage damage. It had been nearly 20 years since my last surgery, which took place during my 4 years as a D1, basketball player. The results were so good that I was able to go back, against Dr. Bade's recommendation mind you, to playing basketball weekly, running long distances and hiking. I have recommended Dr. Bade many times for his excellent work and results, professionalism, and great candor.”

You have made my experience completely positive I every way. Thank you again.”

“I've been a patient of Dr. Gentile since he opened his first practice in Toms River. Through the years, he's diagnosed & treated various ailments as well as done two surgical procedures on me. He once diagnosed broken bones in my leg that 2 emergency rooms couldn't find after being X-rayed. Dr. Gentile is a rarity in the world of medicine today. He never acts rushed or makes me feel like he's pressed for time. He actually listens with undivided attention! I've recommended Dr. Gentile to others & will continue to do so. Thank you, Dr. Gentile for your compassion & for helping me out of many painful situations!”

“Dr. Bade is a meticulous surgeon whose skills are hard to duplicate. Prior to my hand surgery his explanation of the process was so thorough and complete that he even pulled out a surgical textbook to show me illustrations of what he was going to do. I have thorough and total confidence in Dr. Bade. When the time comes for knee replacement I do not plan to consult any other surgeon. His widespread experience and calm demeanor helps in large measure to assuage patient fears. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
