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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Pollack?
Dr. Michael Pollack attempted to perform an upper endoscopy on my wife. He punctured her esophagus, a lung, and pushed the scope all the way down her chest until it reached her diaphragm. He then lied to all of us, including the surgeon who had to perform emergency procedures to save my wife's life. He failed to disclose the extent of the damage his scope caused and that caused the wound to become infected. My wife spent two months in the hospital recovering. I cannot recommend this doctor.
