My whole family loves Rachael Postman. We knew her when she was Dr. Mark's nurse, and we just love her so much.
Hi, yes, my experience with Rachel Postman over the years has been nothing but amazing. I am so grateful to have her as my primary care provider. I have many health conditions and she helps me navigate them with specialists and different types of support and she always validates what I'm going through. However, this last appointment, it was more rushed than usual and I did not leave the appointment feeling like I had all my questions answered, which was a bummer. And I have to say, honestly, this was the first time in all the years that she's been my provider that that's ever happened. But, yes, in the past there was never a feeling of rushed. Now I think involving the telemedicine, virtual appointments, I'm not sure, but there's a little bit more of a push on the time. And the thing that was always the best was that I left feeling like all my needs had been addressed.
she's thoughtful, thorough and kind . . . had the presence of mind to seek out a second opinion on a proposed treatment . . . was careful to review medication options for a certain condition
She was very interested in what I had to say. I think she perhaps thought she knew what I was calling about and she had maybe some ready answers, but she listened to what I was saying. I could tell that she was seeing it more from my point of view and realizing that I had given the whole thing some thought and had made notes about all my symptoms and my family history and all that. So I thought she was very respectful and interested and thorough and she asked some questions I hadn't thought of.
Dr.Postman is great. I really appreciate her understanding and open dialogue.
Dr Postman is always concerned about my health and well-being. She takes the time to explain everything I'm concerned about. She's the best.
She is one of the best
Very, very good, attentive and good follow-up. First of all, wonderful provider.
Amazing visit!I felt heard, which in today's world is rare. Keep up the amazing care!!!
I felt fully like all my health concerns were aired and each step was explained before decisions were made. They listened carefully and gave good feedback to me.
Dr. Postman was friendly, calming, and extremely thorough. The main reason for my visit was to establish care with her as my PCP. She took the time to get acquainted with my medical history, and she engaged with me about some of my harder to pin down issues. She made me feel heard and taken care of. She is one of the best doctors I've ever visited!
Dr. Postman is the best! So easy to talk with and very knowledgeable.
Thorough. Caring. Friendly.
Rachel was knowledgeable, asked appropriate questions, and listened to my answers and concerns. She reviewed the options for treatment along with her recommendations and rationale for them, plus the cost. She did an actual physical exam that matched my concerns and ordered a chest x-ray to further delineate any concerns. Her Medical Assistant, Kimberly, who saw me first, was equally as professional and clearly shared with Rachel the information I had given her.
The student that was working with Rachel yesterday was AMAZING. She was thoughtful and thorough. I felt seen and heard. Not judged for being in recovery from addiction. It was the best visit I have ever had at your clinic.
Rachel was kind and easy to talk with. I felt like she was listening to my concerns and explained things to me and answered all my questions. It was overall a very positive experience.
This provider, Ms. Rachel, is amazing. She's very attentive, very knowledgeable, and very good at explaining in terms that the patient is able to understand directly and clearly. I would highly recommend her to anybody.
My provider is excellent. She makes me feel very comfortable and is always collaborative when discussing treatment options.
Great listener and very thorough.
Energetic. Thorough. Kind. Funny.
Rachael Postman always makes me feel comfortable. She's a great doctor with a great bedside manner.
The best experience I've had meeting a PCP for the first time. She listened well to my concerns, gave me confidence that the process for addressing them has begun, and asked me if there was more I wanted to talk about. She was open about listening to me, and that has always been a huge concern for me with doctors in other clinics was that rarely did I feel they made any time to hear me out. The notes she made were accurate and thorough.
Smart, compassionate, Persistent, very personable
Dr. Postman was very helpful. Her professionalism was perfect, I liked her and respected her.
She was nice and very helpful.
This is truly simple. Rachel Postman is is extremely great, great, great person to work with.
Dr. Rachel was very pleasant, I came with a inquiry about (INAUDIBLE) and to get a referral from her, she was able to quickly address my issue, by just providing the prescription herself, which just help me get this process much more faster. So I appreciated that.
I am extremely thankful to doctors and fully satisfied with my visit !!!
Rachel has helped me revise my meds which were creating extra health problems aside from what they were prescribed for. She is extremely attentive, cordial, friendly and explains health matters clearly; she is very bright and intuitive not to mention knowledgeable. I feel that her paced and strategic approach to healthcare makes a lot of sense especially for seniors who have multiple issues, often just due to aging. I hope to maintain her for a long time as my primary.
I felt that Rachel really cared and wanted to provide me with the care I needed
Even if she's not very familiar with the situation or the possible diagnosis, she absolutely will utilize the current technology to figure out what other possible diagnosis there may be and refer me to specialists.
She's the best, she's the super best. Thank you, bye.
Rachel is very thorough. She really listens.
