I love that Dr. Borden was very patient and understanding, as well as willing to explain everything to us.

This was our first time seeing Dr. Borden for our daughter and he made us all feel at ease. He is so welcoming, friendly, and warm.


Feb 25, 2025

The wait time is always an hour


Feb 25, 2025

Dr. Borden was knowledgeable and caring from the moment he walked in the door. He did not make us feel rushed or leave us with any ambivalence in regards to our daughters health care. Thank you all in that office. We appreciate you!


Feb 21, 2025

Yes, I love Timothy Borden. He walked me through everything as a first-time mother with a pediatric with his broken arm and I just loved the guy. He was outstanding guy. He kept me everything that I asked. He walked me right through it so I'm very very appreciative of him and I like the way that he had walked me through everything when he was doing his surgery and what he's telling me was coming up next his next appointment.

Great experience loved Dr Borden !


Feb 19, 2025

Everyone that we met with during my son's visit was great. We were greeted by one of the women at the front desk in such a welcoming manner and she worked efficiently to get us checked in. The two medical assistants who walked us to the examination room and took my son's X-rays asked questions to get enough information and understanding of the reason for our visit. They were super attentive. And Dr. Borden gave exceptional care. My son felt comfortable talking to him and I felt assured that he cared and listened to all of our questions and concerns. My son and I left the visit feeling very confident in Dr. Borden's care. We are very satisfied with our overall experience.


Feb 18, 2025

Every thing about our experience was wonderful. Dr Borden has an amazing bed side manner, his colleagues are helpful and genuinely care. I have absolutely nothing to complain about.


Feb 18, 2025

The end of visit check out process is unsual, we were told to go back out to the lobby after the visit, and to get in line behind other patients that needed to check, and wait to be checked out, I've never had this experience with any other UT doctors offices, the Doctor and nurse were awesome, the check out process could be improved.

The wait time was extremely short.

Fast wait time and good service


Jan 16, 2025

Dr Borden is always listens to my concerns about my daughter's needs and goes over all possibilities for treatment. By far he is the most down to earth doctor I've ever met. He takes his time to make sure we feel comfortable and knowledgeable about the treatments


Jan 14, 2025

Dr. Borden was excellent, very thorough, very knowledgeable, and I would definitely recommend him. Have a good day. Bye-bye.

We are grateful that Patricia went above and beyond her role when she answered my call. We took our daughter to the ER Tuesday and after 8 hours she was sent home with two slings that did not fit her. Our daughter was in a lot of pain. I was able to schedule an orthopedic through UT for the following week. I kept calling in the morning hoping someone would see her sooner. On Friday Patricia answered and took our case personal. She reached out to two of the Orthopedics and Dr. Borden's team took her in that day. I am grateful for Dr. Borden and his team. They took their time to fully explain and clearly show the breakage and displacement of her humerus. He clearly explained our options for recuperating and placed a plan into action. This Friday we will have another X-ray and see if it's healing properly. The whole team took care of her and she left there with a cast, her arm stabilized, and wearing the sling we bought online since none from the ER worked. Now she is no longer in pain and her normal self.


Jan 10, 2025

Yes, they gave us very good tension, thank you very much.


Jan 9, 2025

Dr Bordan made sure to listen carefully to my 17 year old daughter and made sure to reassure her that he believed her symptoms and showed empathy for how she might be feeling about her symptoms.


Jan 8, 2025
