About David M. Pollack, MD

David Pollack, MD, is senior physician of CHOP Care Delaware County, founding his solo Pediatric practice at DCMH in 1983. He graduated from Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1979, where he remained to complete his pediatric residency training at Babies Hospital, NYC in 1983. As the Drexel Hill office grew successfully, he added partners and staff who shared his mission of making quality pediatric care available to all patients, and organized the opening of a second location in Broomall, then a third in Media in 1998, coinciding with the group's formal affiliation with CHOP.

He continues to be significantly involved in the management of the practice, serves on numerous Children's Hospital committees, and thoroughly enjoys teaching CHOP residents and UPenn medical students throughout the year. Since the inception of the practice, he has strived to oversee the highest level of quality care for families, dedicated to providing accessible, reliable, and empathetic care, and focusing not only on medical concerns, but the social, academic, and emotional components of a child's well-being which so often may affect the entire family.

  • Listened to my child and spoke directly to her. That was super important as she is a quiet kid and does speak up or advocate for herself.

  • I really love how familiar the doctor feels when I know he sees a million people between our visits. He still gives the impression of the small practice where every patient is remembered. I appreciate his proactive approach to screening and also his analytically wait and see approach to prescribing meds. It feels good to leave with his perspectives, possible explanations, advice, and smile!

  • I felt listened to by Dr. P, and that we could do some simple evaluation to rule out something more serious. He was kind, I did not feel rushed, and we had a plan that we both felt was appropriate

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
