Patient Reviews
Jun 01, 2020
We visited the Emergency at Sutter Lakeside hospital on Saturday with our Son. He had broken both bones in his left arm. Dr. Pospisil was amazing with our son. Made sure he was pain-free and was very professional. NO NONSENSE. My husband and I have both suffered bad breaks before and we knew we had a top-notch Orthopedic doctor taking care of our son. I want to thank him so much for everything you have done for him.
