A godsend!
Doctor Postigo is a godsend. He's a very patient person who legitimately cares about his patients. He always takes the time to explain things to my mother and gets back to me immediately when I have questions or need a prescription. He's conscientious in ensuring my mother's health is the best. I recommend Doctor Postigo to anyone seeking a kind, compassionate, and intelligent doctor!

MUST READ REVIEW! I live out of state from my father who has dementia and whom I am in charge of. Found Dr. Postigo thru referral and it was the best thing that ever happened. He is knowledgeable, kind, personable, professional and the best doctor I’ve ever known. His staff is great too! He also has privileges at Rochester General which is a huge advantage. My dad who is 88 survived COVID I believe because the doctor was vigilant about sending him to the hospital at the right time. He is available any time and e-mailed me every day while he was in the hospital for COVID and a bone break. His prices are reasonable but I would pay double for his services. He is a true credit to his profession. Don’t hesitate to retain him. Thank you so much Dr. and staff.

In searching for a geriatric doctor for my 92 yr old Mother, Dr Postigo was a unique referral in that he only makes house calls and the age range of his patients are 65+. He has been a wonderful and caring physician for my Mom; he diagnosed a few serious medical conditions on their first visit which the previous physician had overlooked. He will make house calls as needed with the frequency not seen in regular office visits. My Mom is doing well and we can thank Dr Postigo for this gift.

Dr. Postigo is a cornerstone of quality care for seniors. A must have for those that have a hard time getting around. House calls for seniors is the best thing that could've happened to help my home care business. My clients found him to be essential to staying out of long term care facilities, enjoying a better quality of life at home. When in doubt or have an emergency, he has a personal line available to his clients. That to me and my family is of utmost importance. Very professional and kind
