When I went into University Orthopaedics, I had no quality of life. I was using 2 canes to walk and a scooter if I had to go any kind of a distance. Thanks to Doctor Baione I got my life back. My 2 new knees have given me the quality of life that I had been missing for many years since my knees became arthritic. The doctors and nurses and physician assistants in the practice were very kind very considerate and very caring for the patient. I definitely recommend all the doctors and professionals in this office for any of your joint replacement needs.

I had problems with a knee replacement for five years. I decided to go to Doctor Baione in Wall. He took X-rays and knew right away what was wrong. He replaced the problem knee and I couldn’t be happier. He explained everything thoroughly and I was able to do everything by myself after two days. The staples came out two weeks later and I’m able to drive and get my walker in the car by myself. Thank God for doctors like Dr. Baione. I highly recommend him. The entire staff is wonderful. The communication with the staff from my initial visit to the surgery and follow up has exceeded all of my expectations.
I am a bilateral hip replacement patient. I was on crutches for four years prior to surgery due to my own stubbornness and fear. I had Dr. Baione as my surgeon and he is outstanding. I am so pleased to have met him and his team. They are the best. I have true confidence in him. That’s what you have to have in a surgeon, trust. I am also so beyond pleased with the Morganville PT and their staff. My PT is Alexis Greenberg and I would like to let everyone know she is truly the best. She made me feel welcome and comfortable. I have had great success in my rehab journey because of Alexis. She is caring and knows what I need. I look forward to going each time. She is awesome and I highly recommend her to anybody who needs rehab to really think about using Alexis for their wellness journey. It makes a difference, she made a difference to me.

Six weeks out from total knee replacement and I already feel better than I have in years. I’m finally getting my life back. I highly recommend Dr. Baione and his whole team.
Doctors Chiapetta and Baione were wonderful! I wouldn’t be standing up today if not for them! God bless.
In 2022 I had my left knee replaced and in 2023 I had my right knee replaced. Both replacements were done by Dr. Baione. My Physical Therapists were Vincent Petracco and John Keegan. Everyone there is amazing. Every workout is custom fit to each patient. Every time I left I was one step closer to recovery. It’s a very calming, laid-back and friendly atmosphere. After just a few visits, you feel like family. I would recommend this office to friends, family, and even someone I didn’t know. The whole staff is incredible. I feel like I made friends. Thank you for all the help and encouragement.

On May 20, 2022, I had a fluke bicycling accident, low speed with no other bicycle or car involved. I hit a small pile of sand on a sharp turn. The front tire washed out. I went down on my right side with all my weight landing on my right upper femur/hip area resulting in an upper trochanter femur/hip fracture. I had a rod inserted from my hip to my knee, 2 screws in my hip, and 2 screws in my knee. After PT and a slow, steady return to cycling, I’m now back to full strength, full speed. I can’t imagine life w/o cycling. Thank you so much Dr. Baione!

On 4/23 I had my right knee replaced by Dr. Baione who I was referred to by Tara, who works at the Morganville office. Thanks to Tara, Dr. Baione and his staff everything went as planned. Then came my PT follow-ups. I met Tara and Donna who helped me coordinate my treatments with my personal schedule. They couldn’t have been more respectful and courteous during this experience. They should be considered a huge asset to UOA. Then it became time to start my actual PT. I had the pleasure of working with Joe Abadir and Mateo. They put me through a rigorous treatment plan which they formulated for me and addressed any and all of my needs and concerns. They were so respectful and professional that I almost forgot about the pain. They treated me more like a friend rather than a patient. When I first started my treatment I had difficulty walking and was in a lot of pain. I learned a new term called “range of motion” and this improved after each visit with them. I went from a walker to a cane to having the ability to climb stairs with no pain. All of this occurred in a much shorter time than I ever expected due to the way these two guys took care of me. If I ever owned a business it would be highly successful if I had employees like Tara, Donna, Joe, and Mateo. From Tara introducing me to Dr. Baione and his staff to going back to Morgaville again with Tara, Donna, Joe & Mateo, I had an extremely successful experience and I would highly recommend UOA to anyone that I know who has an orthopaedic issue. Great crew!

Dr. Baione and the entire team took excellent care of me, from the consultation phase all the way through physical therapy. Having both hips replaced at one time was a little intimidating but, I’m so glad I made that choice! At only 8 weeks post-surgery, I’m moving freely and getting stronger every day! 5 stars all day long….thanks everyone!

I suffered with a bad back for many years. It caused severe sciatic pain going down my entire leg. I had multiple shots in my back and I completed PT. I thought I completely recovered and the pain eventually returned.
I have lived with constant pain for many years since. I started to believe that I was going to be like this for the rest of my life. I was still working full-time at a physical job. I was taking two arthritis strength Tylenol twice a day with Aleve. By the end of the day, I couldn’t put weight on my leg and I was dragging it behind me. I was even uncomfortable when I was sitting.
I saw Dr. Ravi Verma at UOA to check my back. He took an x-ray and told me my hip was in bad shape. He directed me to Dr. William Baione.
I saw Dr. Baione and he could immediately see that I needed a hip replacement by the way I was walking. I told him how much pain I was living with. It felt good to know that someone actually knew what I was going through. He was very kind and compassionate. He told me he was going to fix me and give me my life back.
Dr. Baione performed a total anterior hip replacement. The surgery took 45 minutes. He replaced the joints through the front, which is less invasive/painful and it speeds up the recovery time. I was walking without a cane within 5 weeks. I was cleared to go back to work in two months. I’m 48 years old.
I can walk normally again without any pain. I have full range of motion again. I can put my socks on without help. I can get in my car without lifting my leg with my arm. I can also kneel, bend and squat. I mowed my lawn for the first time in years without any pain. I also no longer take any pills for pain.
I will always be very grateful to Dr. Baione for helping me. He really did give me my life back. If I described you or someone you know, see Dr. Baione. He can change your life too!
