  • “Wow ... Well, I blew out my right knee and went to Dr. Gentile and he gave me the option of Surgery and pushed for PT. I really liked that he didn't want to rush to surgery. After PT it still wasn't up to 100% so surgery was required. When it came to my left knee ... Well .. It was my fault cuz I couldn't sit still. So after surgery on both knees I am up to 8 miles biking and 6 miles walking on the board walk in Belmar & Spring Lake. If you go to Doctor Gentile you will get an honest medical option for rehab or surgery. He will push rehab for you!! I know cuz both my shoulders were a mess (hereditary ) and he helped me to rehab them without surgery. So my advise .... Go to a doctor who is NOT out for $$$$ BUT for you !!!!! Thanks Doctor Gentile!”

  • “Dr. Gesell has treated me for a few years due to a damaged right knee. I appreciated that he would drain the fluid and inject cortisone when the pain and swelling got too bad. He never pressured me into surgery although I needed it but was not ready for the commitment. When I finally decided on a TKR, Dr. Gesell patiently guided me through the process. I had robotic surgery on April 27th and am happy with the results of my new knee and straight leg. I still have some swelling and stiffness but am much improved from the past pain and deformity. As a mother of a Physician, I expected certain professionalism from my team and was pleased with Dr. Gesell and his staff. The office is friendly and efficient, and patients aren't required to sit and wait for hours in the waiting room. I have referred many people to Dr. Gesell and hope that he continues to stay focused on positive outcomes for his patients. ”

  • “As an avid outdoor sportsman and active volunteer in two organizations that promotes Conservation of our NJ Natural Resources through the use of proper forestry stewardship, hunting, fishing and trapping, it was too painful to maintain my sports and volunteerism with the constant pain in my knee, hip, and lower back. Knowing that I had bone on bone in my knee, I opted to visit Dr. Gesell after attending one of his seminars on Robotic Surgery. He recommended that I get an epidural spinal injection. I had the injection preformed this morning by a doctor at the Premier Pain Center, also a recommendation by Dr. Gesell, and now after 5 hours, I am 95% pain free. Thank you, Dr. Gesell.”

  • “I was on the fence about getting the operation for a year. Posterior meniscus tear. I was getting therapy and had minimal success. Dr. Torpey was highly recommended by my brother Inlaw who is a personal trainer. The operation was performed in November 2015 and I just got back from snowboarding in Colorado with zero pain. I'm back at the gym and could not be happier with the experience. Ty Dr. Torpey and thank you to a great staff.”
