Camille, I agree with Marcia. I have used both Dr. Greg Foos and Dr. Mark Gesell from Professional Ortho ... the latter recently as he takes our insurance while Foos no longer did (don't understand it, but...whatever). Anyway, they also have an office in Freehold right off Rt. 9 near the mall on Rt. 537. Great dr. And great physical therapy too in Tinton Falls.

Camille, what's with the knees? Mine have bee really bad, especially since my fall last year. I'm headed back to The Hospital for Special Surgery to Dr. Steven Haas in a week for a cortisone shot. It is a schlep and not easy to get appointments, but their radiology department is incredible and all Dr. Haas has done forever are knees.

I also vote for University Orthopedics - there are a few offices. They have a beautiful state of the art almost brand new facility on Worlds Fair Drive in Someset (a bit of a ride allllll the way down Easton Avenue). I've also seen my doctor (Coyle - he's a hand/arm guy) at their much smaller office on Harrison Street in Princeton. My hubby has seen Dr. Sagebien for his knees. I also hear Dr. Leddy is very good. I personally do NOT recommend Dr. Kenneth Klein. He might be a good doctor but he is grumpy!
Irene S. replied:
Camille, I recently visited both Dr. Harwood and Dr. Tria. There was no wait to speak of at either place. Both surgeons are well-thought of. Irene

Edison/Metuchen ortho Dr Garfinkle only does knees. He is great and noted as one of the best in NJ. He did my torn meniscus and cleaned out the arthritis. He even gave me the before and after pics ---------

In Edison, in Dr. Lombardi's office, there is Dr. Patel.. I thought he was good. Rothman institute in Philadelphia was outstanding for Jon's foot and the orthopedist there are terrific..
