His specialty is the use of less invasive and robotic techniques to perform heart operations in order to reduce recovery time. He has an extensive background in this area based on more than 1000 cases of experience and his own in depth research into the outcomes that can be expected with these innovations vs. the standard, open method. Since his first robotic case a decade ago, Dr. Poston has acquired one of the busiest practices in the country in robotic heart surgery. He is only 1 of around 20 surgeons that have developed sufficient expertise to perform robotic heart surgery safely. As a result, patients that need cardiac surgery have sought him out from all over the country with the universal goal of shortening their recovery times after surgery.
