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 am one who believes in praising one's performance in public and reprimanding said performance in private. That is my usual M.O. but I sometimes drift from that, which is what, in 2017, I did. I was about to fire him and seek another physician within the organization to provide the services I required, but decided to let it stand and try to see how things worked out between us. I am still a patient of Dr. Ronald Borlaza to this day. This obviously did work out well between us, and I am quite pleased with this man as a doctor, as well as a gentleman. I believe that both he and this patient have a greater respect for each other's time, as we all can learn from experience.

Not too good. I have been with this man for years and have always received the same poor treatment and tardiness that is unexcusable. I waited for him one day for 3.5 hours. I was going to leave and the nurse said to wait or no travel pay. His office exams are cursory at best and he doesn't answer emails. There is a lot more but just let me tell you "BEWARE".
