I've seen other knee replacements with scars and I have a very faint fine line scar. It's amazing! I also recommend their physical therapist that is located in the Tinton Falls facility. Cynthia Massagli, PT is amazing. I walked in with a walker and within a week she had me walking so much better. It's been 4 months and I'm still going for therapy but now for my shoulder. Apparently, it does happen with knee issues since we compensate by using our arms more. Cynthia has been compassionate and she knows exactly how to do whatever massage that she does with my shoulder to relieve the pain. I will continue my journey with Cynthia. The whole team at PT is wonderful. Everyone is pleasant, always smiling and asking how you are. Whenever I call I am greeted with a person who obviously loves their job!! So refreshing!!Cynthia does morning appointments and Sheila (spelling) does afternoon. I've watched her and she is awesome too. She always greets me when I see her with a smile and a thumbs up!!!

I have never written a review on google or yelp before but after a call with Jeanette the HR…read moredirector, I decided I had to.  I had received a call from Jeanette after I had left a review with them in a link they provided after my appointment. She stated she wanted clarification on what had happened but instead repeatedly made excuses and essentially called me a liar saying she will review the calls to see if what I said really happened and if the person I spoke with was actually rude since she has never gotten complaints before.  To make an appointment you cannot go in person you have to call. Well kind of. Jeanette said that some of the more experienced there would make an appointment and asked if I spoke to a white or black woman since the white woman was new. She seemed to not like whoever the white woman she was thinking of. Also, there are several white women  working reception there so I'm not sure why she assumed it was one specific person. Regardless, there seems to be one woman, Debbie, who schedules all of the appointments for at least the Toms River location over the phone, and on every call she has had a tone in her voice that makes it seem like you are inconveniencing her. One day Debbie had called me to reschedule an appointment I had due to the doctor being ill. No problem that happens and I understand. What I do not understand is why the patient has to bend over backwards for an appointment. For background, when I came for my initial appointment I was unemployed therefore my schedule was open and there were no issues for making my follow up appointment. By the time my second appointment rolled around I was employed and had made it so that I could still make that follow up appointment. When the follow up was canceled I could no longer come in on Thursdays, the one day of the week Dr. Gabisan is there. I was not made aware of this until having to reschedule. I asked if there was another doctor with the same specialty I could see to which I was rudely told no. This is hard to believe when there are 13 doctors that work in the Toms River location. I ended up having to make an appointment for two weeks later. The HR director's excuse for this was that doctors don't just take patients from one another unless they are asked and that if she really liked a doctor she would make it work. So a patient's request doesn't matter? I understand this is a different office but the place I received physical therapy from had no issues making appointments for me. If the doctor I originally saw wasn't available they had another take care of me with no issues. Each physical therapist that cared for me simply looked at my file then took the few minutes to get to know me and my injury so they could properly help me. To her second comment,  I had seen Dr. Gabisan one time. I was neither unhappy with him nor wowed so driving to another office that he is at, which is at least 30 minutes away from the office I chose is extremely inconvenient. Call me crazy but setting aside almost 2 hours of my day for a doctors appointment that lasts no more than 2 minutes (that is indeed how long I was face to face with the doctor for on the follow up) does not make sense. I wish when I made my very first appointment I was told that the doctor she wanted to assign me to was only at the location I chose once a week; especially if they were going to give me problems when asking to see someone else so MY appointment worked with MY schedule. This leads me to another issue I had. If a patient should wear specific clothing I.e shorts to their appointment in the middle of fall/winter, tell them when they make said appointment. Also, if at the time of visit the front desk is going to ask for an insurance card on a follow up visit, tell the patient when they make the appointment. This is the first doctor's office I have been to that has asked for the physical insurance card when I had been there before. To be clear I have no issue with that. I would gladly bring it with me if I was told to as it's not something I carry around with me on a daily basis. Jeanette's response to this and the doctors schedules was that they do not give out that kind of information and paper shorts are provided. No one ever wants to wear paper clothing. It is uncomfortable and personally it makes me feel like I'm out for all to see since it is extremely thin and can rip. While not having shorts or an insurance card did not inhibit me from seeing the doctor, it would have been convenient for everyone involved (myself, the front desk, the nurse, and doctor) if this information was told at the time the appointment was made.  I am extremely confused as to why they asked for a review if the HR department was just going to look at that review and demean the patient. I gave an honest but respectful review from a patients point of view. Just because that's the way things are done there or you have never had a bad review of someone does not mean it did not occur.

Within 5 mins i was asked to go to a room,the doctor came in within mins. The doctor greeted me and talked about what my issues are and he explained it to me.

He spent 45 minutes talking with me during my initial appointment and made sure to define every foreign term that he mentioned. He wants to get to know you as a person first, then he treats you. The day after my surgery, he called me personally to see how I was doing. He also checks in with my hand therapist regularly and is always well informed. He is worlds apart from my previous doctor who couldn't remember my name and asked me to remind him what he did and said at my last visit. It never takes more than a few days to get an appointment and the wait time in the office is less than 10 minutes. Excellent experience overall. Dr. Johnson would get more than 5 stars if I could choose that option.
