He was very knowledgeable and clearly an expert in his field. He was very professional while communicating information at my level of knowledge. He's a great asset to Emory.

    My appointment was long and very thorough. It was the most a healthcare provider has listened to me in what feels like a very long time. There was no rush to get me out of there, and all bases were covered. I felt like the doctor was invested in me and my well-being. It was very refreshing. I have nothing negative to say about my visit.

    Very impressed with Dr. Posse-Riva. Great listening skills and thoughtfully made a change to my med plan , and gave me a social group to check out to try now, reevaluating need for TMS in a few months. Very grateful for his advice

    Dr. RivaPosse (spelling?) was the first FRIENDLY psychiatrist I've ever met. They're generally cold, clinical and devoid of all personality. He was not.
