Connie Borgerding, DO

Was NOT happy with the lab tech. I directed her to use my hand/ wrist area for lab draw ( do this for all lab draws because of scaring of veins in antecubital area from where I have to "donate" pints of blood due to hemochromatosis). She first of all leaned in so close to my hand it seemed like she had visual impairment, but was not successful in that attempt, and was poking deeper than necessary (FYI I am an RN with Wellstar). She removed the needle and proceeded to poke the vein next to the one she just poked.... With the SAME needle she was using..... still leaning in close like can't see. This time she got in vein but may have gone all way through due to not getting a return of blood when attaching the vacutainer. So pulled back and got flash but then hematoma was building up on my hand, blood not going into the test tube. I had to tell her that blood is going to be no good, going to clot. I allowed her to use my outside antecubital to draw. Still leaning in. Was successful this time though she had let go of needle which moved and I honestly thought was going to dislodge but she had to readjust to get it to draw. (I was not dehydrated, veins in good standing. Had been drinking fluids all day prior to appointment). Pulled out needle and I applied pressure to site to keep from bleeding and noticed small hematoma at site. She was quick with the paper tape but I wanted to hold pressure a moment longer, but she was like your done you can go. I appreciate everyone else in my care except phlebotomist-- I really considered not doing my lab initially but told myself I'm already here just do it. I regret that I did not wait until another day and do it at the health park.

My wife and I first met Dr. Borgerding several years ago, when we lived in Franklin, NC, and she practiced in Sylva, NC. We were impressed with the way she listened carefully, asked questions and did methodical and thorough examinations. Her skilled, gentle and confident osteopathic manipulative treatments (OMT) elimated longstanding pain. Our flexibility, breathing and general wellness have improved way beyond our expectations. It has been a blessing to remain under her care in Marietta, GA even though we live a few hours away in SC. Dr. Borgerding is a skilled, caring and gifted practitioner, and we would gladly travel any distance to receive her care.

September 26, 2025

Staff is super friendly, Dr. B is fantastic in her bedside manner and willingness to discuss concerns and ideas at length, and your scheduling is SO convenient (being able to scheduled 6 months and 1 year out is SO helpful!!)

September 26, 2025

I asked questions after my lab results came back. I've yet to receive any feedback.

September 21, 2025

I DO refer many friends and my daughter will start with Dr. B this week as her new PCP! She is a truly wonderful, caring, educating, motivating doctor!

September 17, 2025

Waiting for the Lab to call your name, you can here them in the room conversing, I spoke to an older women when I arrived and stated she's been waiting awhile, only to find out the waiting period was because they can do it, all of the three people waiting was called back at the same time, I really missed the previous team that was there prior to this visit.

September 16, 2025

Doctor Borgerding was awesome. One of the best experiences I have had with an annual physical.

September 12, 2025

Hi. Overall, the experience is really good, but I would appreciate if the provider or the nurse can respond back to my chart patient messaging. That way, it is a quick correspondence between the patient and the provider, which will help provide more guidance to the patient. I feel like there's a delay by at least a day or two. So I think this improvement would really be helpful. Thank you.

September 12, 2025

Great team!

September 10, 2025

Great

September 10, 2025

The lab technician was insolent and refused to pronounce my name announcing that "I can't pronounce that" with disdain.

September 7, 2025

Love our provider Excellent care and always feel listened to and cared about

September 18, 2025

Everyone was cheerful, friendly and helpful.

September 6, 2025

Outstanding!

August 30, 2025

She made appropriate referral, went over med, checked me and LISTENED!

August 29, 2025

Dr and staff always friendly and helpful

August 28, 2025

Great visit!

August 24, 2025

Best doctor I've ever had in the past 30 years.

August 24, 2025

Wait time was a bit long

August 24, 2025

Where can I start ? The whole entire team is very professional in all aspects of my visit, promptly getting me in for my appointment on time, assistants were absolutely fantastic. What can't I say about Doctor Borgerding, she is the best I've ever had the pleasure to be cared by.

August 21, 2025

Great ?

August 15, 2025

Great Dr.!

August 15, 2025

Dr. Connie Borgerding was very nice and professional and tried to learn about me carefully.

August 15, 2025

All the staff were so courteous. My new gp is wonderful and was very attentive.

August 15, 2025

The experience with Dr. Connie is exceptional would highly recommend recommend her to anyone a big plus to the well star system

August 10, 2025

Thank you for the timely response to the tests and the "no wait time" to get the blood drawn. The appointment was over in a timely manner and greatly appreciated.

August 8, 2025

Everything was great

August 7, 2025

All of the staff that I interacted with here were very welcoming. I felt the Dr listened closely, didn't seem rushed answered all my questions. This facility seems like it could use an update compared to other Wellstar locations that I have visited. However, I'm more concerned about personal treatment than trappings.

August 4, 2025

Dr. Borgerding is just fabulous. She actually cares about her patients.

August 2, 2025

I left after fasting for the day without getting blood work done. The lady's in the lab were talking and having a big time. After signing in and standing in the lobby I asked one of the receptionist if I could open the door and let them know I was waiting. I opened the door and said I'm ready when you are, and I was told they would come get me when they were ready and to close the door. After that they went back to talking and just having a good ole time, so I left.

I directed her to use my hand/ wrist area for lab draw ( do this for all lab draws because of scaring of veins in antecubital area from where I have to "donate" pints of blood due to hemochromatosis). She first of all leaned in so close to my hand it seemed like she had visual impairment, but was not successful in that attempt, and was poking deeper than necessary (FYI I am an RN with Wellstar). She removed the needle and proceeded to poke the vein next to the one she just poked.... With the SAME needle she was using..... still leaning in close like can't see. This time she got in vein but may have gone all way through due to not getting a return of blood when attaching the vacutainer. So pulled back and got flash but then hematoma was building up on my hand, blood not going into the test tube. I had to tell her that blood is going to be no good, going to clot. I allowed her to use my outside antecubital to draw. Still leaning in. Was successful this time though she had let go of needle which moved and I honestly thought was going to dislodge but she had to readjust to get it to draw. (I was not dehydrated, veins in good standing. Had been drinking fluids all day prior to appointment). Pulled out needle and I applied pressure to site to keep from bleeding and noticed small hematoma at site. She was quick with the paper tape but I wanted to hold pressure a moment longer, but she was like your done you can go. I appreciate everyone else in my care except phlebotomist-- I really considered not doing my lab initially but told myself I'm already here just do it. I regret that I did not wait until another day and do it at the health park.
