I hope I never have reason to recommend Dr. Boreta, but if I knew of someone that needed an oncologist, I would highly recommend Dr. Boreta

She is so good! Dr. Boreta makes herself available quickly in times of need. She communicates with me, demonstrating warmth and quick perception of the depth I would like. She is very present, focused, and great at listening. I never feel rushed. She provides excellent treatment plans and answers my questions, right on point (and I can ask direct and difficult questions).

Dr. Boreta is truly an amazing option. She's extremely knowledgeable very caring takes the time to explain and share and allow you to speak and ask questions. These types of appointments are very sensitive and can be more on the traumatic side because you're dealing with such serious health things. But Dr. Boreta just makes it all feel so much better. I truly feel lucky that I am in her care
