Dr. Doumas repaired my left shoulder’s extensive rotator cuff and bicep tear in August. I felt confident with his expertise before and after surgery. Much of my successful healing is because of the excellent UOA PT. Lynn and staff are professional and caring and that helped my recuperation immeasurably.
I am so grateful for the caring, gifted professionals and staff here. I had so many injuries I wondered how I could ever feel even close to “normal” again. But I found what my body and my spirit needed. Thank you for making words about healing reality. This safe, warm and very competent environment breathes life – and hope.
Special thanks to Dr. Monica for his excellence in shoulder reconstruction after a serious fall last July. The night of the accident my husband and I met with the Residents in the Emergency Room. We learned from them that I had suffered a serious fracture that required shoulder reconstruction. They also told us that this is not a common surgery such as hip and knee replacements. When hearing the news that I faced a surgical procedure that is not commonly performed and more complex, I became very apprehensive until Dr. Monica visited me in the Emergency Room.
I was fortunate to get Dr. Monica as my attending physician. Right away he put my mind as ease with his knowledge and ability to communicate in a straightforward yet compassionate manner what to expect. As a surgeon, he is both a skilled clinician and artisan. My shoulder is on the mend and getting better all the time. I am exceedingly pleased that my range of motion has surpassed all expectations. My sincere thanks to Dr. Monica for such a positive medical outcome.
Dr. Polonet is a beyond excellent doctor and surgeon. I can’t say enough about him and his sincere and heartfelt bedside manner. He saved my leg and changed my outlook on life in general. He’s an amazing human being and I thank god he was the doctor in the E.R. the night of my accident.
After 3 recommendations from friends I called to make an appointment at UOA. The professionalism and courtesy began at the front desk and continued with a thorough evaluation and treatment plan by Dr. Doumas.
I had an exceptional outcome from my bilateral knee replacement – I bicycle, dance, and wear high heels. I would trust Dr. Harwood to replace anything!
I suffered multiple fractures in a bicycling accident and was highly traumatized as a result. From my initial treatment by Dr. Sagebien at RWJ I felt I was in good and caring hands. My subsequent follow up at UOANJ further confirmed my impression and my confidence in the care I was receiving. I felt like i was being cared for both as a patient and as a person.
I want to particularly single out nurse practitioner Patricia Seuffert for her expert care and great kindness. One becomes very fragile when one suffers great trauma. At such times the warmth and kindness of your caregivers is especially important. Nurse Seuffort is a gem and a tribute to the office and her profession.
After cervical fusion I was back at work within 6 weeks! Dr. Chiappetta was reassuring of the procedure and the outcome. Now after 3 months I am back at work full-time, no pain or numbness and I owe it all to Dr.Chiappetta.
I’m very pleased with my experience at UOA. The entire staff was very friendly, helpful and kind. They made sure I was comfortable from the minute I walked in to when I left. The facility is great. Everything you need under one roof. I would definitely continue to be a patient here (as needed)!
