Overview

I consider it a tremendous honor to support my patients throughout their breast cancer journey. When I meet with patients and their loved ones, I aim to provide a clear and comprehensive understanding of their diagnosis. I listen to their concerns and questions, and together we develop a multidisciplinary treatment plan that incorporates their goals with evidence-based practice and emerging research. I aim to equip my patients with the knowledge and confidence needed to navigate their cancer care comfortably moving forward. We have a wonderful team devoted to delivering the best possible care, every step of the way. As a breast cancer surgeon, I have clinical expertise in benign, high risk and malignant breast disease. I specialize in lumpectomies and breast conserving surgeries, skin-sparing or nipple sparing mastectomies, excisional biopsies, sentinel lymph node biopsies, and complete axillary lymph node dissections. I look forward to meeting you and helping you take control of your breast health.

Every day, my goal is to take the best surgical care of my patients' kidney or prostate cancer by offering the most up-to-date minimally invasive surgical treatments, while making sure that their experiences and outcomes at Duke Health are top-notch! As we look at the scans together and discuss biopsy results, it is important to me that I spend all of the time that my patients and their families need to clearly understand their diagnosis as well as all treatment options, so that we can make joint decisions about next steps and their treatment plan. Many of my patients are referred from all over the country to seek highly specialized urology care, including nonsurgical focal cryotherapy for prostate cancer, robotic surgery for prostate cancer, or robotic surgical removal of their kidney tumor called a partial nephrectomy, among other treatments, with our multidisciplinary, collaborative team. I always reassure and share my positive outlook with my patients as we navigate the health system together. My patients know that, as their physician, I will be their champion and advise them and guide them through their treatment. We are in this together. Dr. Polascik is highly rated in 21 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Prostate Cancer, Familial Prostate Cancer, Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC), Prostatectomy, and Nephrectomy.
