“I have had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Pollak and his team. Everyone in that office is super friendly and supportive - special shout out to Jessica and Nicole, who have always been available to answer my questions and help me with next steps. The entire team is very quick with follow ups and very responsive, which I really appreciate. Dr.Pollak is very patient, knowledgeable, and overall just a very nice person. I felt at ease and I trust in his recommendations and treatment. I’m so glad I finally found a good PCP and I’m looking forward to continued health check ups and working with his team in future.”
