Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had a ruptured appendix. He is well known as highly competent physician among well regarded members of the medical community. He is patient, concerned and friendly. Those are a plus.

Dr. Posalski is extraordinary. I have a close friend that was treated by him for a very serious illness and he has doing exceptionally well today! He went from life threatening to very stable today and managing his condition. Dr. Posalski was the key to his living a normal life today. Dr. Posalski cares, he takes time, he communicates, he follows up. There is continuity between visits, a strategy that is consistently followed from visit to visit. The staff fantastic, professional and friend

Dr. Posalski is AMAZING! I have been suffering with lung and sinus inflammation for almost 20 years. I gave up on the doctors long ago. Lately my breathing got really bad and I was referred to Dr. Posalski to find out why the antibiotics were not working. Within 1 hour after looking at all my labs he was able to come up with a diagnosis. I finally know what my problem is. Thank you Dr. Posalski.

dr posalski came to me while i was in the hospital with sepsis and quickly did what needed to be done to identify the bacteria. he was smart, efficient, professional, took as much time as was needed to explain what was going on and his plan, and i was totally relaxed, knowing i was inn good hands. I couldn't recommend him any higher.
