Dr Pollac was awesome. When he heard of my situation he called me from his cell and told me I shouldn’t wait to come in. He made room for me in his busy schedule and fixed me up. Such a nice man. I’m so appreciative of his concernShow more and expertise. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m more than completely satisfied.
Great, excellent

I have been treated by Dr. Pollack for a period of six months. I have found him to be extremely knowledgeable. He made an effort to understand my condition and work out a treatment plan. He appears to me to be a doctor who prioritizes the best interests of the patient. His staff is excellent.

Great office staff. Excellent physician
Dr. Pollack, Great, amazing doctor, excellent staff.
Without a doubt the best retina surgeon in New York.
Dr Pollack got me in right away due to the urgency of my situation after my opthamologist called, was incredibly thorough and made me feel like he knew what he was doing and very trustworthy. When all tests concluded, he made his explanation and advice very clear to me and probably saved my life in what he found and told me to do. My only issue was that his practice was EXTREMELY busy (but that's a good thing too); his waiting room is EXTREMELY small (not such a good thing), and the wait was very long. But knowing what I know now, I would see him again and wait again just as long for his help.
Great doctor, shows interest for his patients. The office manager as well as the doctors assisting him are top. I'm happy he is taking care of my visual problem.
Terrific Doc! Very thorough
Dr. Aryeh Pollack's intensive concentration and commitment is unsurpassed by any of the fine doctors I have known. His retinal knowledge and experience with a congenial pleasant disposition makes every visit always the very best for my Optical care.
Staff is friendly and welcoming. Dr. Pollack is thorough and provides clear explanations. This is a very busy practice, yet their dedication to excellence shines as the staff and physician interact with patients.
