“Excellent doctor”
I have had cataracts for years and didn't get the surgery yet due to concerns with my high myopia, which puts Mr in a higher risk group for complications. I'm not kidding when I say I've been to just about every ophthalmologist in Ocala and The Villages trying to find an eye surgeon that feels right; there was always a hesitation. After seeing Dr. Polack several times now, I feel confident that he has the skill and knowledge to address my cataracts; he is a good vibe. Kathi Scarnato.

“I felt very at ease with Dr. Polack because I know he is very knowledgeable since I have been his patient for so many years. I trust him completely. Very happy since my surgery.”
I think I explained that in my last comment. Sorry. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Polack. I would recommend him to any one who needs an eye doctor. My husband has started with Ocala Eye now.

“Excellent doctor that listens to patient needs”
Dr. Pollack is the best doctor I have seen in 75 years, he listens to your concerns and takes time to explain what you need and why. He is very calm and reassuring and makes you feel relaxed . I only wish more doctors had the his work ethic and caring for his patients . Linda Stockbridge

“Dr. Polack may have saved my eye.”
I have researched Ophthalmologist after moving to Ocala. Upon getting myself situated after the move I started researching a few Ophthalmologist around the area. I was not sure of the ones that I went to and did not feel comfortable. However, I had cataract in right eye that was deteriorating rather quickly and got to the point where I could only see shadows and light. Then from my research and talking to someone that is a patient of his I came across Dr. Polack. He is one of the best!
