Dr. Dean Wyland Borth, MD

Excellent surgeon and very personable

Dr. Borth is one of the finest Surgeons anyone could ask for. He is prompt, courteous, takes time with you so you understand the the problem and makes you feel secure and safe. You have no fear because you know he will make you well. I've had quite a few surgeries done by Dr. Borth so I know what I'm talking about. I would recommend him to anyone who needs surgery. I've been going to him for 29 years and the proof is in the pudding he's the best. I've never had to wait 45 minutes to see him. If you are looking for a surgeon he's your man. I thank GOD everyday for Dr. Borth.

Good doctor but his wait times really stink. And if he is in a hurry for any reason, he spends hardly no time with you.

I took 1/2 vacation day for appt.. that turned into a full vacation day. I waited over 2 1/2 hours before taken to exam room and then another 1/2 hr before he came in. In total, almost 4 hours there!!! He acted like i was stupid, ignored my imput and was quite arrogant. He wants to do a procedure not even associated with my problem; probably because i have good insurance?

After waiting months for my surgery (as my schedule would allow) less then two weeks before, his office called me to reschedule! Now it may take a months again to find a feasible slot for this surgery. Poor planning on his part.

Aside from not recognizing I brought ultrasound scans with me, Borth was late arriving to the hospital the day of the surgery, asked me (for the second time) which breast had the cyst, and then carved out half of my breast for a mere biopsy of a fibroid cyst. If he had arrived on time, the dye they used to locate the cyst probably wouldn't have spread and only the cyst would have been removed for biopsy. I have learned to get a second opinion, if not for anything other than making sure the surgeon of choice is competent before surgery.
