Dr. Pollock limits his practice to only two surgical procedures. Infant circumcision is one of these procedures. (No-Scalpel No-Needle Vasectomy is the other). For these two procedures, Dr. Pollock is one of the busiest and most well known physicians in North America. 20 years ago, before beginning to perform these procedures, Dr. Pollock traveled to many cities in North America researching first hand what he believed to be all the best techniques used by the most experienced doctors. After carefully studying their most effective strategies, Dr. Pollock put together his own approach to these surgeries, combining the most effective elements of what he learned. He then further refined the entire process creating what has become known today as “The Pollock Technique” for infant circumcision.
As a father of three, Dr.Pollock knows that the safety and comfort of your son is the number one priority. As of October 2012, Dr. Pollock has safely performed well over 35,000 infant circumcisions - making him one of the most experienced circumcision physicians in North America. Currently he performs approximately 2500 annually at his two private offices. Dr. Pollock is a frequent guest lecturer at local hospitals and conferences His research into developing a safe quick and virtually pain free approach to circumcision has been published internationally.
