Dr. Pohlman is beyond exceptional in his care and concern for patients. He has been my hematologist/oncologist for almost 20 years and saved my life. His knowledge and expertise is exceptional as is ability to instill hope and a positive attitude in his patients. He is kind, understanding and coupled with his knowledge of NHL has provided "world class care". He is able to connect with his patients and develop a team approach and plan to wellness. I am blessed to have him as my medical provider.

Dr. Pohlman was excellent. He mentioned that he will be retiring in alittle over a year and that he is looking at my case to see which oncologist on staff would be best suited to care for me. He also mentioned that he is going to have tests run for my 10 year cancer check and go over results before he retires. This is extremely reassuring to me! He has always given me excellent care and I am sad to be losing him as my doctor but am glad he will be able to retire and enjoy doing things he loves.
