    This was my first meeting with Dr. Boreta and I liked her right away. She was caring and compassionate during a difficult time for me and my family, while being very informative. She was patient with our questions and concerns and showed true empathy.

    If I could give a higher rating for the care and compassion shown to me I would.

    Dr. Boreta met via Telehealth and conveyed some difficult information to my daughter and me. She offered to meet with us again and include more family members so that they could receive the information first-hand. She went above and beyond and was compassionate yet shared the difficult facts. Amazing that she has the gifts of her skills as a radiation oncologist, communication skills, and an excellent "bedside manner." So very thankful for Dr. Boreta.
