Dr. Borrowdale may be a great doctor, but he charges over $200.00 for a 15 minute visit. Most insurances will cover less than half.

Could not be a better surgeon or a more kind, truly caring man. So glad we found him. My husband had Head/neck cancer. Two surgeries, many, many follow ups.

After an inept dr.( ? ) in Florida left the roots of a cancer in my face, I was referred to Dr. Borrowdale by another physician. Dr. borrowdale immediately ordered a test and found the cancer was growing and heading for my brain. He scheduled me for surgery, then, He and his team went to work and removed ALL traces of the cancer.. It's been 6 1/2 years nowthat I've been cancer free. My thanks to you again and may you have some great fishing days in your new area. J.

My husband had colon cancer and lung cancer for a year before we were told about the colon cancer. We were never told about the tumor on his left lung. I found it accidently when I picked up records for an appointment. While reading the CT reports and PET reports they both first mentioned a spot on his left lung, a spot on his liver and then the spot in his colon. My husband is now dealing with end stage lung cancer and not expected to live long. I have repeatedly tried to reach him since he moved to Illinois to no avail. He doesn't return calls to former patients even after asking them to stay in contact. Poor excuse for a human being let alone a Doctor. My advice, be very careful and inquisitive if this is your doctor. DO NOT TRUST HIM TO TELL YOU EVERYTHING. He claims your cured and then doesn't tell you things to make you believe it.
