Doctor Posada is great! He knows what he’s doing and is very nice. He was also great about helping me explore non surgical options. Thank you!!!

Aside from having to wait a bit to be greeted and checked in, the staff and Dr. Posano were very friendly. I highly recommend him for your sports injury needs.

Had a skiing accident and when I came back found Dr Posada through the ZocDoc app. Had an easy time to get the appt right away. Dr was very straightforward and explained my options well. Gave me a surgery date and all the info needed. Was a quick and efficient experience. The wait once I got there was not much. Pretty much a few minutes after I filled out all the paperwork. Would recommend.
