Dr. Borkosky was a great listener. He was very professional yet compassionate. He created the space for us to share open and honestly. I highly recommend him.

I waited and after 5 minutes I called and left a voicemail, but no answer. I emailed him then too.. he emails me back an hour later and says “I thought you cancelled. Want to proceed” I said “no I never cancelled, yes I want to proceed” but then no response back. I took the day off work and saved up money a psychological evaluation. I was also court ordered so now I have a probation violation. I wouldn’t recommend booking this guy to anyone who needs it. Not to mention my insurance wasn’t going to cover any of it neither.
Sucks an ignored my appointment!!!

Too expensive
I absolutely do not recommend anyone seeing Bruce Borkosky unless you’re fine with getting no evaluation (eval) from him at the end of the appt and essentially having no services rendered. I recently saw him for an eval and I was aware of him not taking insurance which I had no issues with. I am a veteran and due to the VA taking a long time to see patients, I wanted an eval done quickly and I was happy to pay the cash fee. I soon came to find that he is very quick to have you do everything on his terms/time, his client portal (not through Zocdoc), but he will not communicate with you when you try to reach out to him via email/phone/client portal. He also rescheduled our appt at the last minute and once we had our appt, he didn’t provide me my eval or any feedback, he just asked questions and ended our appointment quickly. I had also requested him to send over my eval to my primary doctor’s office and they have yet to receive it after I have reached out to him numerous times.

Waited all night to see if my insurance was accepted as it said it was pending, it asked me to provide all of my insurance information for no reason because apparently this guy only takes cash. Which I wasn’t told until after the session was completed and then he’s saying he tried to charge my card to pay out of pocket to tell me I should write down my thoughts. No real help or anything that made me feel any better asked me questions that made me feel extremely confused and left me feeling like there’s not much hope for change. As he said medication won’t help will only make me feel “less emotions overall” and all I can do is journal my thoughts? And then had an attitude when I told him I can’t afford that and I was trying to pay with insurance. All I have to say is he should have been clear from the get go that my insurance was not accepted instead of requesting all my information for insurance through the app.

very knowledgeable and listens to you.

Dr. Borkosky, listened to my concerns and addressed them. He suggested some coping methods and asked if he had answered all my questions. I look forward to our next tele meeting to make more progress.
Verified patient
I met Dr Borkosky by telehealth appointment and therefore had no comments about his office since I did not experience either his office or his staff. Also, I knew his office owuld not accept my insurance and it was no surprise. I was happy to cover the cost myself. Please do not post my name on any review. Thank you.
A very good experience and I look forward to working with Bruce to experience more different therapeutic boundaries and outcomes.
Verified patient
It took a bit of work due to my connection being spotty at best for a telehealth visit however once that was sorted out (using a different connection. He was polite understanding and a great listener he was able to answer any questions that I had and help me delve deeper into myself in a meaningful and important way when it came to personal growth. Be honest and you will go far with him.

Not helpful
Verified patient
there were multiple telehealth applications he had me try during my appointment none of which worked and I have a degree in EET technology. so I didn't get the care needed exactly & I was billed for multiple missed visits while following his directions. he could not even keep track of the time zones
