I think I know why there are many, many great recommendations for Borash, and then some really bad ones... We have been taking our animals to Borash for six years now, and they have been nothing but wonderful, wonderful, wonderful to them. However, I recognize that Dr. Borash has a pretty aggressive approach, and genuinely wants to do the most he can do (which leads to very expensive solutions). But if you are clear with him about your desire to focus on quality of life for your pet, or, clear about your limitations, he is fine with that.... I put it this way, sometimes you think your surgeon is perhaps arrogant and high-priced, but don't you want the best in a surgeon?? Often times the best are arrogant and high-priced.. Anyway, I will continue to take my animals there.. and BTW, his staff is NOTHING but the kindest, sweetest folks I've ever encountered... if they ever seemed rude to you, its because they are soooooo dang busy...
