Dr. Possley was amazing!! Figured out exactly what I needed and got me taken care of as quickly as possible. I had horrible daily pain that was not helped with pain meds and now I'm on my way to being pain free. If you have back issues I highly recommend Dr. Possley! Great bedside manner and knew exactly what to do to help me.

Dr. Possley and his team were fantastic to work with. Dr. Possley quickly diagnosed the source of my chronic back pain and clearly laid out the treatment options. His team supported each of the decisions I made and provided the information I needed to make the decisions. After a couple of non-invasive treatments I decided I was ready for surgery. The surgery went as expected and three weeks post-surgery I already feel better than I have in more than 5 years. My only regret is not finding Dr. Possley sooner so I could start treatment sooner.

Dr. Possley is a very good surgeon and I felt very comfortable and safe with him. His assistant was also very good. He explained everything to me and I had a great understanding of what was going to happen during surgery and of what was happening after the surgery and and my recovery. I was very afraid to have surgery, but they helped relieve my fears with all the information they provided.

Dr. Possley has provided me with extremely helpful medical advice on my back over the last year. I have read a lot of articles, watched videos and talked with other doctors and I have never better understood what is causing my pain, treatment options and pros/cons of those options. In addition to the great information and advice Dr. Possley did a wonderful job of calming me down after I received an MRI result at the start of the process. I can't praise Dr Possley enough for his consultation. I am happy to report that my back is feeling better than it has for the last year but if I have any issues

I have had many surgeries in my lifetime and dealing with Dr.Possley for my back surgery has been great. He was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything that was happening to my back. With the use of models and graphs I was very informed on how my recovery was expected to go. I would highly recommend Dr Possley for any spine needs.

Dr. Possley seems very knowledgeable in his field, however, I found his bedside manner off-putting. I would have appreciated him addressing my specific concerns and actually looking at my spine in conjunction with the x-ray imaging. He could not provide further details as to why I have new onset of back and scapular discomfort for the last 6 months, and when I asked further questions, he said, "I'm telling you, I don't see anything." He then abruptly left. At the very least, I would suggest acknowledging your patients' concerns regardless of how mild they may be. That is part of being a compassionate

Dr. Daniel Possley performed a very difficult and challenging spinal surgery on my sister, Cecilia Eames. His expertise, knowledge, kindness and compassion for her is out of this world! He made sure Cecilia stayed calm, comfortable, and assured her she will be OK and feeling much better after she heals completely. There are no words how to thank Dr. Possley for his outstanding successful surgery that he performed on my sister. If there were more STARS to give him ............Cecilia and I would give him more plus the MOON! Thank you Dr. Possley for saving my sister, Cecilia. God Bless you, Cecilia

Dr. Possley is one of those very special doctors who has a great bedside manner but also a great ability to diagnose your problem. I was concerned that I would need back surgery because of a persistent pain in my lower back. Dr. Possley took an X-ray and sent me to physical therapy, along with good advice on building up my core and exercise. Dr. Possley is one of those doctors that you can trust to let you know when non- surgical options will work rather than surgery.

I feel like Dr. Possley saved my whole life. For a good chunk of 2019, I was living with a really bad herniated disc, and was able to do less and less as time went by and the problem got worse. Once Dr. Possley took me on as a patient, he was there every step of the way, with an amazing determination to make sure we fixed the problem, and a full “toolbox” of options to relieve the pain. When time passed, and physical therapy, medication, and a steroid shot failed to relieve the pain, our last resort was a discectomy. Luckily for me, he is also a surgeon! Everything went smoothly and finally
