Elliot Borgen

I like the store very clean

I went in yesterday for an Angiogram. Dr. Borgen did my procedure. Dr. Borgen was so Professional and Nice. He spoke to me before, during and after the procedure and that lessened my anxiety. His team and the staff at the Cardiac Unit at Maimonides Hospital were the BEST..... I highly recommend Dr. Borgen and Maimonides Cardiac Unit.........

Dr Borgen saved my life 2 years ago, he used a stent to save my while having a heart attack. Every 6 months a follow up as well. He is the best there is!!

I had an extremely bad experience in the cath lab. The staff was unprofessional. For example, on going into the lab, I was awake, and a nurse started taking off my gown. I was uncomfortable being exposed so I asked her to stop and wait to cover me first.....she was not happy. After preparing me for the procedure 2 people came in, already gowned up and starting working on me. No introduction....they were preparing me for the dr. I continued to feel pain and when I mentioned it, they told me I was imagining it. Then came in the doctor, and started doing the procedure. This time the pain was excruciating and I said so. The doctor screamed at me and told me that I have to deal with the pain for a few more minutes, not caring enough to ease or try to ease my pain. A few days later I still am bruised and have swelling. The nurses in the ambulatory center were efficient... But the cath lab-a house of horrors!!!!!

Terrible. Unprofessional and impatient
