Dr. Borst has been wonderful. She is very knowledgeable about the hemangioma and has given us lots of information and support to help our daughter and put us at ease.

*Dr. Borst realized quickly that we probably should not have been referred to her. Our issue was more for a dermatologist. She went out of her way to reach out to a pediatric derm. to get answers for us.
