Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

If you are looking for a good outcome of your vein treatment avoid Dr. Pollock. He laser treated a bulging vein in the back of my leg. It was still there after wearing the support stocking for 3 weeks so then he injected it saying “ there, that will take care of it”. I wore the stocking again. It looked worse than when I first came in. Went back and he was very indignant and said I was being unreasonable. My leg looked worse after he treated me and he told me with massage and heat the bulging vein in my leg would go away??? It is laughable if I wasn’t so upset. Do not see Dr. Pollock. Save yourself time and expense and look for another Dr.

BEWARE BEWARE, If you value your life do not let this guy do any work on you. My wife was operated on by Dr. Pollock 5 or six times over the past 2 years for circulation problems in her legs. If I had more than 789 characters to write I could give more in depth detail. Dr. Pollock was 0-6 getting positive results operating on my wife and one time actually caused a pseudoaneurysm in her arm from a surgery the previous day going through her arm to get to her groin. There were other surgery failures that I don't have space to describe but the last one he did was a femoral to femoral which left a large incision on the creases of leg near the abdominal area. The two incisons were constantly dripping, oozing etc. and when we went back to see Dr. Pollock at Premier Surgical two weeks later Doctor Pollock didn't seem concerned about the wounds caused by his incisions and had his nurse pack the wounds. Two weeks later my wife was rushed to the hospital and passed away from causes of sepsis.

Great listener. Never talked down to me. We decided treatment together, was not dictated to. I think he skipped the God 101 class.
