In the back pocket of WC and says what they want him to say. Complete insult to the profession. You are guilty before evidence is presented.

In my opinion this man has your IME report already prepared before you even enter his office. Whatever the insurance company wants from him, he will give. I have had countless IME's with him. He goes to court and slants and exaggerates. In my opinion, beware, he is a loaded gun for the insurance companies.

This "doctor's" IME machinations were bought and paid for by my WC insurance carrier. The Arizona Medical Board should immediately and forcefully sanction this liar using whatever means legally available. Any injured worker with a legitimate WC claim who's examined by this maleficent will undoubtedly have their claim and access to medical care jeopardized for no reason other than to satisfy insurance carrier's pursuit to deny services.

I was seen twice in ten years for an I.M.E. and he lied both times! I have EVERY record from no less than SEVEN other Doctors, He has contradicted ALL SEVEN of them. This Man is dangerous and should NOT be allowed to practice medicine. That or he needs WAY WAY more practice!

Dr. Borowsky is the greatest! He is considerate of his patients, kind, and thoughtful. He listens to you and does an excellent job in relieiving your pain.I have had many other pain management doctors before, but Dr. Borowsky is certainly top notch. A stop to see him is part of my travel itinerary. He takes excellent care of me. There's no one like him.

Having Dr. Borowsky for pain management turned my husband's life around. We have been so blessed by his treatment and we can't say enough good things about his staff. Thank you Dr. B and Kelly for all that you do for your patients.

Dr. Borowsky tells his staff that he is part of my travel itinerary, as I never leave home with seeing him first.With my stenosis, there is no way I could even leave my house much less travel the world if I didn't have my epideral from Dr. Borowsky. I have had other pain management doctors, but he is the BEST!!!! He is gentle, and has a wonderful "bedside manner". He truly is concerned about his patients. If you need a pain management doctor, Dr. Borowsky is the one. Don't look any further. Give him a call. You will be out of pain and living the life you want.
