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.

Excellent surgeon! Best at what he does!
He took 8 hours March 8 2012 with Dr Eric Ezra Smouha to excise my acoustic neuroma and left my hearing intact! I thank them and bless them both every day since! I thank them amd bless them!

Absolutely the Best
Dr. Post is the absolute best. I had my surgery for a Craniopharyngioma around 1984 at 19 years old. He removed the entire tumor which wasn't easy. I have lived a normal life since. He is also a very nice person with a great bedside manor. I would recommend him and his team to anyone.

Dr. Post has operated on me twice. Once recently, and once twenty years ago. Both surgeries were delicate, but Dr. Post's knowledge and confidence helped keep me from excessive worrying in both circumstances. He answered questions, made things clear with thorough explanations; and never made me feel that my concerns were anything but valid. It is now two months since my second surgery, and the results are excellent, and the aftercare that Dr. Post ( and his staff) has provided has been superb.

Dr. Post is simply the best. He is very professional, caring and seems to love what he does. He operated on a tumor on my optic nerve in 2010. I have been fine since then.
