Jul 2024Dr. Borchelt took time to explain my upcoming surgery and to reassure any concerns I had. You can tell he enjoys his profession from the passion he displays. He is thorough to a fault and I left his office feeling good about him and my surgery.

Jun 2024Dr. Borchelt was very frank with explaining the procedure to me. very precise in his explanation. He is taking the best possible medical route to avoid any complication down the road.He is taking the route for my surgery so he will not have to see in maybe 5 years down the road. I agree with him.
