Pedro J Postigo's Online Review Report Card

I would never recommend Dr. Postigo to anyone! He was only interested in prescribing drugs at too high dosages for my severe head pain and migraines that caused many side effects. My appt was on a Friday, and I was told to call back on Monday to review how I was doing. When I called on Monday, I was shocked to learn that he was out of town attending a medical conference and could not be reached. I immediately found a different wonderful doctor who cares about his patients ... unlike Dr. Postigo.

Dr. Postigo is a fantastic neurologist, in fact I travel from Arizona to see him to keep my seizures under control. He is kind, very smart and has a broader view of the world. He 'got me' and some of the health issues I had and took them very seriously when others would blow me off. I had breast implant illness, was very sick, the silicone and other heavy metals went to my brain as though cancer wasn't enough to beat...the implants gave me seizures and he KNEW this was happening to women, unlike many doctors. I highly recommend him.

Knowledgeable, Professional and personable Gives you the attention you need

Dr Postigo is an unbelievable "Pro" who makes you feel like he is the Doctor that other peoples Doctors are judged against.

Dr. Postigo really took time with me, listened carefully, took a lot of notes and answered all of my questions. I highly recommend him to someone who wants a thorough, caring doctor. Thank you!

He is very caring and listens carefully.

He is the best dr I've ever had. He's thoughtful, courteous, and has always cured me.

Brilliant suffered with sciatic nerve pain, neck, shoulder pain until receiving botox injections from him. Would be bedridden without his treatment.

Doctor is very professional. His staff is uninformed and can be uncaring.

I started seeing postigo when I was in my early 20s. He diagnosed me with small, non-convulsant seizures (I am now seeing a neurologist who said being given a diagnosis solely from an MRI and EEG isn't enough for this; she doesn't even think what I have is seizures..something else). Anyhow, initially I liked him a lot. I went through a few medications because I was having reactions to all of them. The last one he prescribed me was Depakote (aka sodium valporate). I saw another doctor shortly after him (I moved) who said that is the LAST medication I should be on (or anyone should be on unless they have severe seizures), especially because I'm of child bearing age- it causes cleft palet, spinabifida and other birth defects in a huge percentage of pregnancies. Another issue I have with him, is he isn't very caring. He goes through the motions, tells you the issues very dryly. When I would ask questions, sometimes he'd even say 'well I don't know' (things like, does this work with birth control? what are the side effects if___?) My hubby even got frustrated with him because he would have to ask the question again, since the dr. didn't really answer me. He has a casual, almost rude attitude towards me- perhaps a cultural thing towards females. Dr. Postigo's staff IS FANTASTIC...super nice, very sweet. He just isn't used to dealing with young people or answering questions beyond what he has in his old textbook- every time I went to his office there were grandma's and grandpa's there- never once saw a young person. New doc put me on something else which is good because we've started a family.
