  • “Great bunch of guys. Motorcycle accident injury. They treated me and found no operation needed, just physical therapy. What a relief not to go under the knife. Thanks, guys!”

    – Carmen D.

  • “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!! ”

  • “Dr. Johnson, When I first walked into your office, my shoulder hurt so bad, I was limping! Okay, that's a tad over dramatic, but you get my point. But it was all good from that point on. From the concern and efficiency of your front desk staff to the support and patience of Calla Chizan, I felt well taken care of by the administrative staff. And Carod Dolan seemed to make my treatment her #1 priority whenever I called. The medical team in Tinton Falls that I dealt with were outstanding. From nurses to x-ray techs the care and concern demonstrated were highly appreciated. I am sorry I can't remember their names. A special mention for "Sarah" (I hope I got that right. I wasn't exactly sharp that day.), the pre-op nurse at the surgical center. She was professional, efficient and re-assuring to a pretty frightened, uptight individual that day. And last, but NOT least, thank you for being so good at what you do. I am well on my way back to 100%. I can not thank you, and your team enough.”

    – M. McInerney

  • “Dr. Bade has treated me for several different issues including surgery to both shoulders; this last issue is a torn meniscus that I need to have repaired. Dr. Bade has always provided an apparent understanding of the problem, treatment, and aftercare. The office staff has always been helpful from scheduling to discussing issues related to insurance coverage. ”

  • “I play Division 1 college baseball. During my season I broke my wrist and needed surgery. It was critical that I had a doctor who was experienced and specialized in my injury. Dr. Johnson and his staff were extremely professional and accomodating. I felt like I was a priority. Thank you for everything.”

  • “I've seen Dr. Johnson twice for the same issue. He's very conservative in treating the issue and advised further treatment as needed. I like this conservative method and am very happy with his style. He's an excellent physician and takes the time needed to evaluate his patients. I'm very satisfied!”

  • “Dr. Torpey did my Revision rotator cuff surgery, after the 1st one by another orthopedic surgeon let go an anchor after 10 months of pain, rehab and being careful. I am a female in my early 60's so the first shot is always the best. However, I believed in Dr. Torpey for the revision surgery and so far my rehab for 4+ mos. had a good outcome, range of motion and all. Although I feel I may never get the strength back that I had before, God willing I will be painless after a year and be able to go back to my normal activities without worrying I will pull something out again. But it has been a long road, 2 surgeries in one year and all that rehab. My take on Dr. Torpey is that he a very nice, caring person, and a fine doctor.”

  • “Dr. Lusk-Cáceres quickly diagnosed the issues and sent me to physical therapy, which has really helped! She suggested the least impactful path forward, which I appreciated but did check up to see what was working. Very satisfied.”
