I was raised in Massachusetts; I now live with my wife and three children in Nazareth, Pa. I am an avid sports fan and my favorite teams are the Boston Red Sox and the New England Patriots. After serving in the United States Air Force I moved to Nazareth to be closer to my wife and my family. I am a board-certified Family Physician who joined St. Luke’s University Health Network in January 2011. I have been practicing in Nazareth since 1998 and my practice is dedicated to treating patients of all ages.

“This was our first visit with Dr. Pogo as we were switching from another practice. We were warmly welcomed by the receptionist and the nursing staff. I was very impressed with the way Dr. Pogo spoke directly to my teenage son and took time to ask questions to get to know a little about him and his interests. He was thorough in going through his health history and records and the appointment did not feel at all rushed. He even gave him advice as a new driver. Leaving the appointment, II am very happy with our choice to join this practice.”

“I (and my family) have been under Dr. Pogo's care for 28 years. He is both an intelligent person and physician. Care from Dr Pogo has been consistently excellent. During my most recent visit I transitioned from BCBSIL insurance (I retired) to Medicare, Humana, AblePay and Cigna. The person I dealt with at the front desk was excellent. She took all my cards, entered all the information and returned the cards to me in the waiting room. She also answered a question I had about copays. So the entire experience was positive and professional.”
