Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I was a patient of Dr. Borgos years ago when she was with Geisinger Health System. At that time, she diagnosed me with a cyst in my breast. She provided excellent care for a minor problem. She followed up with me every six months for the next two years. At that point, she set me up on a regular schedule of yearly mammograms. Four years later, I was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. Had it not been for her, I may not have been proactive with my mammograms. Dr. Borgos saved my life.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Borgos?
Never! This woman though a competent surgeon has the compassion of fly larvae! She has a cruel streak. She treated my partner and myself and imposes her values upon her patients without respect or regard for quality of life. I recently became aware that she had altered my records to cover herself based on both a medical and ethical error in surgery that occurred when she was with Geisinger. I fired her as my doctor as did my partner and chose to not file a complaint with hospital or board.
