Patient Reviews

“Dear Dr. Torpey, I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for taking the time to help me with my chronic condition. I visited five different doctors in the past couple of years to no avail. My pain has been progressively increasing and I was becoming depressed, not very enthusiastic regarding my future. On your recommendation, I visited Dr. Kelly and he confirmed your diagnosis of a torn tendon along with a bone spur on my hip bone. I have a long road ahead of healing, however, I now am very hopeful for my future. I am so grateful I made the decision to come and see you!”

“Dr. Gentile is the absolute best. He always explains what your treatment is and what to expect. I would recommend him to anyone. Excellent office staff.”

“Dr. Torpey is professional and responsive; friendly and well-informed staff.”

“Dr. Gesell, From the time I called and made an appointment up until the time of surgery, I had felt support from Dr. Gesell and his staff, i.e.; Amanda Aversa, Lisa Vito, and Colleen Rackett. No question was too silly and they always made time to answer my questions. Dr. Gesell put me at ease at the first visit and my MRI revealed that I had a torn rotator cuff (in my shoulder). Dr. Gesell had me go to physical therapy first, but, the pain never subsided. It was my choice to have the surgery when I did. The entire experience went much better than I expected and having the surgery at the Surgical Center proved to be an excellent choice. The nurses were gracious and the anesthesiologist was impeccable. The entire procedure went smoothly. I had a nerve block put in before the surgery, which helped me to cope for the three days following the surgery. Recovery is a long process. There are good and bad pain days. I am having passive physical therapy now and see Dr. Gesell this Friday. Dr Gesell always stressed that recovery will take time...and patience is key. I would gladly recommend Dr "G" as a surgeon. He has definitely won me over with his skill as a surgeon and his ability to communicate to his patient and their family.”

“Staff was excellent and very professional. Dr. Johnson is wonderful and has great bedside manner, which is so important! He listened and really takes his time with you. I highly recommend him. He has also done multiple knee surgeries on my husband and he had great experiences!”

“My sister referred Dr. Plyler as an excellent doctor with great bedside manners. I came to the office for my right shoulder. He ordered an MRI, which showed no surgery was necessary, but he administered a cortisone shot for pain and some therapy. Dr. Plyler gets five stars, hands down.”

“The experience I have had with Professional Orthopedics has been superb! The staff is always very welcoming & friendly! I feel like I'm visiting family when I go there. Dr. Torpey is definitely an outstanding doctor. His patient care is top notch, and I would never consider seeking a second opinion. The surgeries he has performed always resulted in my being 100%. I would highly recommend this office! Thank you for all you have done for me! I'll miss my visits, but welcome feeling great again!”

“Dr Foos' care, prior to, during, and after my knee replacement surgery, was exceptional. I was a success story thanks to him. Now pain-free after years of discomfort evolving into chronic pain and instability of the point, I'm now able to resume all activities pain-free! Many thanks for the terrific care.”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Bade since 1985 when I suffered an injury to my scapula after being hit by a motor vehicle while riding my bicycle. Since that day, I have never looked to anyone but him for all my orthopaedic needs, and there have been many. Multiple knee injuries that he surgically repaired that have allowed me to continue with the type of physical work and sports that I engage in. I am currently under his care for a major shoulder injury, and I have to say that I always have and always will have trust and faith in what he recommends. I am confident that once again, he will put me back together again so I can get back to a normal, pain free life. His surgical skills are second to none and he truly cares about his patients – always taking the time to listen and addressing any and all concerns. He surrounded himself with an unbelievable staff that also makes you feel that someone really does care, and they always will go out of their way to help you with anything that you may need. Dr. Bade & Professional Orthopaedic Associates is and always will be my only choice for any orthopaedic needs.”

“Everything with Dr. Nicholson was great.”
