Dr. Pollock joins Sparks Internal Medicine

Dr. Solangel Pollock has joined Dr. Trevor Hodge at  Sparks Fort Smith Internal Medicine located at 708 Lexington.

Both physicians are accepting new patients. The clinic offers general medical care for adult men and women including routine exams, diabetes management, and hypertension management, treatment of skin conditions and management of chronic diseases.

Pollock’s practice was previously located at 4700 Kelley Highway. She joined Sparks in March 2014 after working in an urgent care facility in Miami.

Pollock became Internal Medicine Board Certified in 2007. Before that she fulfilled her residency at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center in Queens, N.Y., which is considered one of the most intense programs in the nation with 72-hour “on-call” duties including trauma and burn patients.

Pollock grew up in a small town in Cuba where her mother was a nurse and was inspired to provide medical care for others. From 1996-1999, Pollock was the ultimate “town Doctor,” treating much of the population of Villa Clara, Cuba. She is fluent in Spanish and English.

Pollock became an American citizen in 2004. Her husband is a retired military physician from Arkansas who served twice in Iraq.
