About Me

Dr. Stephen Pollock is a cardiologist. He has special clinical interests in the early diagnosis of coronary artery disease, along with evaluating and treating chest pain, arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm) and heart failure.

Part of Dr. Pollock's motivation to highlight the importance of early diagnosis of coronary artery disease is his own diagnosis with the condition. He stresses the importance of the coronary artery calcium score test, which measures calcium buildup in your heart arteries, helping determine heart attack risk. He established University of Maryland St. Joseph Medical Center's HeartAware program, which aids in early diagnosis of coronary artery disease.

When he isn't helping patients, Dr. Pollock enjoys playing golf and pickleball and exercising.

UMMS Review Intro text

  • Dr. Stephen Pollock is an exceptional provider who treats his patients with wonderful care. I never feel rushed seeing him and he explains his treatment recommendations well. He cares for his patients - you can really sense that during your visits.

  • Dr Pollock is a no nonsense doctor but I have complete confidence in his diagnosis.

  • I have been a patient of Dr. Pollack for nearly 21 years. I absolutely trust him.

  • I felt as though my concerns were being dismissed and not even heard. I was told by the doctor that I have been his patient for over 4 years and that he was aware of my issues. Seemed a bit arrogant to me, especially since I've been his pt for a little over a year. This visit should have been my 1st yearly check-up. I felt as though he had somewhere to be and wanted me gone. Sorry, but that is just how I felt about how the doctor interacted with me.

  • Dr Pollock and staff always exceed my expectations

  • He is always clear in his recommendations and provides time one on one to review his findings and to listen should I have questions. Good rapport
