Brian A Borden, MD

My husband fell in a rather horrific way and ended up shredding his patellar tendon and having his muscle roll up the thigh. At the same time he broke his ankle so severely that his foot laid completely off to one side and his bone was sticking out where his foot should have been. That night in the emergency room they told me that my husband would most likely lose the leg. Thank goodness they had Dr Borden on call.
Surprisingly the knee was the most complicated fix. Eight or nine surgeries on that and three on the ankle later, despite a shredded tendon and a massive infection that developed, Brian managed to not only save my husband’s leg, it is entirely functional and he only walks with a slight limp. He is simply a genius and I am so grateful to him.
One of the things I like best about Dr Borden is his bedside manner. He is direct and strraightforward. He does not sugarcoat anything but he does not take away hope either. He is innovative and does everything he can to treat the injury in a manner that will result best for the patient. He made sure to keep us both fully informed and I really trusted him because of it.
Recently when my mom dealt with a bad shoulder that did not respond to treatment she did not hesitate and went straight to Dr Borden He got better x rays done and gave her a clear and more accurate diagnosis, discovering her shoulder was not impingement or a rotator cuff problem at all but rather a frozen shoulder. I recommend him to everyone I know.
