“Could not believe that I broke my foot, nonetheless in three places. Dr. Gabisan took excellent care of me, and I would recommend his services to anyone. It was an absolute positive experience. Well, as good as it could be when one is casted!!”

Treating Doctor:“Dr. Gentile is an excellent and compassionate surgeon and Orthopaedic Care Professional. For many years now, he has been someone who has enabled me to live a far better quality of life than I ever expected due to the nature of my injuries when I first became a patient. I cannot thank him enough for all that he has done for me. He has also . . . referred me to Dr. Gabisan and Dr. Cohen and Dr. Gesell when it was required. I am extremely grateful for his care and he has also treated both of my sons at various points in time. I recommend Dr. Gentile to many friends and acquaintances and also this office in general. Also, your support staff . . . the nurses, the X-ray technicians, the people who handle appointments, surgical scheduling and billing are all amazing people. They are "Simply the Best" to take a line from Tina Turner.”

“I have been a patient at Professional Orthopaedic Associates since the beginning. I was an original patient of Dr. Bade in the Long Branch office. Dr. Bade has performed three of the five surgeries on my left knee. The other two were performed out of state. Dr. Bade was consulted on both surgeries and both were performed by physicians based on his recommendations. Dr. Jason Cohen performed a C Spine disectomy on me in 2005. Over the years and various other injuries or follow-ups on existing injuries or surgeries, I have been seen by the other doctors in the group and have been very satisfied with all of them.”

“This was the best experience I have ever had dealing with a medical professional. The office was SUPER efficient and proactive in helping me get all necessary paperwork and tests prior to a short notice surgery. Dr. Bade explained everything on my initial visit and the follow up visits were informative and he spends time talking about your concerns and strategy for healing. I already recommended a coworker to this practice and I was also a referral from my marathon running/cycling in laws who only spoke highly of Dr. Bade and group.”

“Dr. Gesell is one of the most caring doctors I have ever seen. He did my knee replacement a year ago from a car accident and I would do it all over again with him. My knee is perfect with no pain and I can extend and flex with no problems. I can stand for a long time, when before, I could only stand for approximately an hour. He was very caring and he looked in on me in the hospital to make sure I was doing okay and making sure I was doing my exercises! If it wasn't for Dr. Gesell, I would still be in pain, still be frustrated, and I would still be limping or on crutches! Thanks to Dr. Gesell, I can walk now, even though I need a hip replacement.This is how caring he is, my hip is so bad, he referred me to Hospital for Special Surgery, which is where he did his fellowship, to a great doctor. Thanks to Dr. Gesell, I will be walking without any aids, like a cane or a walker. Thanks to Dr. Gesell and the very caring staff at Professional Orthopaedic Associates, I can get straightened out! Thank you!”

“Been remiss is getting to you. I wanted to thank all in the office of Professional Orthopaedic Associates for your kindness, professionalism, and demeanors. Everyone was pleasant and efficient from the front office to billing to nursing staff. Additionally, big thanks to Dr. Gesell who lived to his word. I asked if I could be dancing at my son’s wedding six weeks from my surgery on March 21 and he delivered! Again, thank you all and I would recommend your practice to anyone.”
