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.

Dr. Pollock is fantastic! Above and beyond a “5 star rating”. She is kind, very thorough and you will never feel rushed. She truly has concern for all her patients. I highly recommend her and am happy to refer family and friends.

Dr. Pollock always takes the time to answer my questions. She delivered my son via emergency c-section and explained the process thoroughly to ensure I was comfortable going into surgery. I would recommend Dr. Pollock to anyone seeking a compassionate and knowledgeable OBGYN. She is fantastic!

Have a teenage daughter who was uncertain about going to a female gyno - Cathy has a daughter of her own and was able to speak with me (the parent) and my daughter (the child) in ways we both understood, with a kindness that we appreciated and a clarity that told us what is going on. She is a beyond a 5 star grade!
