I have been with Dr Banala since 2012 and in my 80 years, I have not had a more intelligent and caring personal physician. He visits his hospitalized patients every day. His ability to pre-diagnose serious medical conditions is almost uncanny. My only problem is sometimes understanding him during my appointments. He tends to mumble somewhat and his pronunciation of English words can be a little off-putting. Thats Okay, because I understand he speaks 5 languages.

Dr. Banala is a kind and caring doctor. He won't spend time just chatting. He's focused on his patient's health and well being. I recommend.

I like Dr. Banala, but I refuse to wait well over an hour each time I have a scheduled appointment at his office. It's not because he had an emergency, which I understand.
