Dr. Borer is an EXCELLENT Cardiologist. He takes time to listen and includes me in on deciding the options for my care. He never makes me feel rushed nor does he spend most of the time focused on data entry rather than keeping eye-contact. I feel heard, included and cared for. He's one of the best doctors overseeing my care.

First of all. Steven Borer DO save me from dying by checking out my heart with one of his tests. He told me I needed a new valve in my heart and recommended the chief heart surgeon who did a perfect Replacement with no scars. I'D RECAMEND HIM TO ANYONE WHO NEEDS A CARDIOLOGIST.

Courteous and educational. Always looking out for your wellbeing.

5 out of 5 stars

Meeting Dr Boer was an amazing experience. I was spoken to like a human being. Everything explained in great detail and he checked in constantly to make sure I was understanding completely. Never once scoffed at my questions. He also reviewed all of my medical history with me. When it came to testing suggestions, he included me in the decision to do so. This was a far cry from my previous cardiologist who made it clear he had no time for me and knew nothing about anything.

5 out of 5 stars

Dr. Borer is very kind, considerate and thoughtful. I never felt rushed and he made sure to address all my questions or concerns
