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.

Good Dr., good visit

First visit. Every thing went well.
Dr. Poss and his staff were all very pleasant and helpful throughout my initial appointment. Every step of the procedure was explained in advance, and every effort was made to keep me comfortable. Looking forward to my next visit, and a favorable outcome.

Dr. Poss was very professional, and I felt like he actually listened to what I was saying. Luckily, for me right now, I don’t need a lot of intervention for my back, but if it becomes necessary in the future, I would certainly return.

True Empathy, VERY rare...
Simply put, his demeaner and "bed side manner" is one of true empathy and compassion for the pain and suffering of his patients. He TRULY listens, he TRULY takes his time, and he TRULY provides a level of empathy rarely seen in the medical profession today.

I have had lower back pain for several years and had to have 3 back surgeries. I still was having lower back pain so Dr. Poss suggested have my nerves burned alone my spine. Well I had it done and I am so glad I did for the first time in years I don't have any pain. Dr. Poss is a wonderful doctor, I would recommend him to anyone that had pain.

Dr. Poss is fantasty physician. Sadly, he is retiring next year sometimes. HF-10 something we can look into. Also Dr. Poss will look more information than HF-10. He is so sweet man. Wishing you and your family very Happy Holidays as well. Kira

Dr. Poss was wonderful! He made the entire process painless and easy. His x-ray tech was awesome and super friendly in the treatment room. The tech who was with me before and after procedure was really sweet and made me feel at ease! I would definitely send a friend or family member here.

I wasn't thrilled to undergo an epidural, however, Dr. Poss was extremely patient, taking the time to answer all my questions and concerns and gave me reassurances. All went well, thanks be to God. I am extremely impressed with the doctors and staff of VA Brain and Spine. Professional expertise combined with excellent patient concern and rapport.

My first visit for evaluation was with Brian and Chantel, they both was amazingly knowledgeable and informative and diagnostically excellent. I am probably one of the more nervous patients when it comes to procedures of the spine but everyone, from reception to nurses to Anthony the tech and Dr. Poss himself were greatly calming and reassuring -- and incredibly competent. The procedure went exactly as predicted and as it proceeded Dr. Poss explained what he was doing, from beginning to end.

Dr. Poss was very caring and professional. He told me everything he was doing during my back injection and was extremely gentle. He's done injections twice and was extremely knowledgeable in my condition. His staff was very friendly and helpful and talked to me like I was a person. Thank you to everyone at VA Brain and Spine Center for all your help.
