    Dr. Larissa Bornikova is an excellent doctor and hematologist! She was very easy to talk with, she spent a good amount of time with me, listened closely to everything I told her, and patiently answered all of my questions!

    Dr. Bornikova is a very good doctor. Communicates well and doesn't leave anything unanswered.

    An amazing provider, probably the best at what they do I'm assuming. Might be a mild introvert but that's normal given what they do. I'm hoping that my future experiences will allow me to adequately talk about my medications, diagnoses, referrals and future follow ups

    Dr. Bornikova provides exemplary medical care! She has been my physician for many years. She is caring and detailed about my health. I had a medical situation while I was in her office many years ago. She immediately handled the situation, and, in my opinion saved my life. She is brilliant! She is patient and kind. She takes the time to answer my questions and concerns. MGH is extremely fortunate to have Dr. Bornacova as part of their wonderful medical team!

    I was more than extremely happy with my visit with Dr. Bornikova. I was upset about a recent experience I had with the gastroenterology department. I was trying to get an appointment there after my colonoscopy and I basically was getting the runaround and she listened to all my concerns and frustrations. She offered to intervene and help if I wanted that. Even though it wasn't in her realm, she listened carefully and was very sympathetic to my needs. She also was very good about my Von Willibraun's bleeding, describing and explaining everything about that to me on previous visits. She does wonderful follow-up care and I would highly recommend her to anybody and I look forward to seeing her again in May.

    When I made this appointment, I was led to believe that the only location it could be offered in was the Boston location. In the future, I would have been happier to know that I could have made an appointment at a more local hospital where my provider is also practicing.

    it was an entirely satisfactory and pleasant experience in every way. Dr. Bornikova had red my chart and was familiar with by history andthe reason for this appointment. Her bat was warm and personal, yet always professional. She took her time questioning and examined me. I never felt rushed. We ended by scheduling an ultrasound later the same day.
