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. Boskind.....words aren't enough to describe all of who and what he is. After a 2 hour long surgery on my aunt, he was kind and patient enough to speak with me for about 20 minutes explaining the procedure and the outcome and expected results of the procedure. He did this with patience and kindness making sure I understood all the complexities. I felt VERY confident she was in very capable hands. God bless him and his staff. I look forward to his continued care of my Aunt. Thank u Dr Boskind.

Dr. Boskind is the best surgeon. He has evident, sincere empathy. Never once did I doubt that Dr. Boskind had much best interests at heart. Although my experience at Adventist was less than favorable, I'd deal with it every time if it was a prerequisite for having the best surgeon take care of me! It has been several years since I've been seen in the clinic, as my tumor removal was successful, but I remain grateful as ever.

I would recommend Dr. Boskind. He takes special care of his patients. He is my favorite Doctor, I have known him for 18 years. Because of his excellent surgical skills I am still alive today. He removed my left lung because of cancer and also did my follow up for eight years. He explains everything so its easy to understand. Now he has put 5 stents in to stop the pain in my legs. I feel great, thanks to Dr Boskinds, excellent skills.

Very skilled, professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He performed surgery on my 88 year-old mother, made her feel very comfortable and surgery went great. He took the right amount of time in the exam and follow up, he listened attentively and never made us feel rushed.

Easy to ask questions of and thorough and easily understandable answers. Spends as much time with me as I needed. Good sense of humor and bedside manner. Very reassuring. I went in terrified and came out comfortable and more knowledgeable about my issue.
