“Dr. Nicholson is intelligent and easygoing. The appointment was on-time, not having the client wait long as in other offices. I would recommend Dr. Nicholson for orthopedic purposes. Glad I went to him for my broken wrist.”

“Dr. Gentile was very accommodating by listening and fully explaining everything concerning my issue. On the day of surgery, he took the time to tell again and came back after surgery to let me know how it went. He was very reassuring, and I felt very calm throughout. ”

“When I first moved here from northern NJ, I had to find an orthopedic doctor. I googled "orthopedic doctors in Ocean County," and read patient reviews. I selected POA due to the discussions and T.R. location. Dr. Bade has been my doctor since then. He is a kind, careful, caring, extremely knowledgeable, and takes his time to explain all to me and gives excellent advice too — one of my favorite doctors since moving.”

“Dr. Cohen is a very experienced and competent doctor. Above all, he has great compassion for his patients. Between my wife and myself, we have had five back surgeries by Dr. Cohen. I cannot even think of going anywhere else for back surgery if either one of us needs surgery again, and it will be by Dr. Cohen. If I have a question about my treatment, Dr. Cohen or one of his staff always gets back to me. Dr. Cohen says that my wife and I are now like family and he treats us like we are. He’s a great guy and doctor.”

“This was my 3rd surgery with Dr. Foos. As usual, Dr. Foos was great and the whole process was quick, efficient and virtually pain-free. I was back on court playing tennis in 6 weeks.”

“I am moved to write to you today because you have helped me in the past and certainly with my most current situation. Dr. Johnson is the “ultimate diagnostician” and I was, am and will be always confident that he can help me. Jessica was most accommodating in getting me into the office. The staff has always been most professional, pleasant and welcoming to patients! (You are the face of the practice and congratulations to you all!) Thank you, thank you for helping me with two months of pain that hopefully will improve in the future. You are all very wonderful.”
