No one could have been kinder and more thorough than Dr. Polokoff was when discussing my diagnosis. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience in her field and is a highly skilled surgeon. I have complete trust in her. Every health professional that I have come in contact with has said Dr. Polokoff is the best and that all members of their family would go to her. I would highly recommend her to all my family members and friends.
