Dr. B is awesome. He really listens to you and how you feel. I have always felt comfortable with him and opening up about what is wrong. I would recommend him to anyone. He gives that personal touch to medicine.

I love going to Dr. B and even told him last time. He will spend the time it takes to hear your concerns. Your care is kind of collaboratative. He will give you options and choices whenever possible. HE listens, he cares, and has a wonderful demeanor. He is so thorugh in his review of your tests. I would recommend him to anyone needing this type of care. I actually feel good when I leave there.

I had to have thyroid nodules biopsied. Dr. Bandukwala explained each step of the process and what sensations I might feel as the biopsies were completed. He has a calm and reassuring manner, and he explained each step of the process before he began. In the follow-up appointment, he thoroughly explained the results of the tests, and I left feeling knowledgeable about my condition and what I should be aware of regarding any changes I might experience.

I drive 45 minutes to see Dr. Bandukwala but he is worth it! He spends quality time with you, answering all of your questions and goes over your condition and test results very thoroughly. He educates you and allows you to be involved in your own health. He looks at the big picture and makes sure nothing is overlooked. He has terrific bedside manner and he is extremely knowledgeable. He is the best of both worlds, doctors like him are hard to come by.
