Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Boron performed my colonoscopy at Elkhart General. I was put under "Conscious Sedation" meaning I could see, hear, and feel everything happening to me. I was scared out of my mind. I didn't understand. Afterwards, I asked him why he did this to me without any warning, and he told me it was the "standard of care." He told me he wasn't going to argue with me, that I shouldn't whine about a 15 minute procedure, and that if I didn't like it I could go get my colonoscopy somewhere else. Horrible.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Boron?
I had an ERCP procedure, and have had many health problems associated with this procedure. I can not recommend him. I do not think he is skilled in doing an ERCP. My Aunt was puntured while Dr.Borron did this procedure on her. She has had lots of health issues associated with the error. This happened some years ago. I am happy to save anyone else from any possible troubles. Thank you
