Dr Pollock is the best and his staff is amazing, probably my fav office I visit for my serious issue. If he left the state I'd fly for the annual visit that is how much I trust him and his staff. I'm treated well but always provided details and information to help me make good decisions. He's probably the smartest doctor I have and his staff make me feel liek I matter and that is rate in the way health care feels these days at appts. I dread the day he retires. I'd folow him if he left Swedish so make sure to take care of this specialist. He's just solid and consistent. Even when he gave me hard news in 2018 on health things and surgery needs, he was someone I trust and would want his recommendations on. He always gave me choice and made it my call. True Respect. It was a huge reason for my mental shift - when I said what are my limitations, he saidGO LIVE and my life improced with that advice.
