Ballots were sent to the state’s practicing physicians asking them who they would send a loved one to in more than forty specialties.

“I pride myself on providing the complete spectrum of care for all shoulder, elbow, and knee problems, and enjoy caring for active and athletic patients of all ages,” he says. “Everything I do in my practice is geared toward customizing care for the individual patient and avoiding unnecessary surgery. If surgery is indicated, my training and technique minimize the surgical procedure, decrease pain, and accelerate recovery time.”

Fellowship trained in shoulder, knee, and minimally invasive procedures, Dr. Pollack also routinely treats all athletic injuries and fractures. He is a partner at the Hunterdon Orthopaedic Institute (HOI), also known as the Orthopaedics Institute, an 11-physician, regional multi-specialty practice that has delivered musculoskeletal care for more than four decades.
