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.

Dr. Postel performed triple bypass surgery on me at St. Josephs Hospital in October 2017. He told me in advance that it would be a difficult and challenging operation. He wasn't kidding. I spent 7 hours on the table. Had it not been for the experience, knowledge and skill of Dr. Postal before, during and after the surgery, my wife and I both believe, beyond doubt, I would not be walking on this earth today.
