Dr Bansal is wonderful, has a terrific personality and is very courteous and professional. His office staff is also very helpful and professional. I had an emergency, they accommodated me that same day. Although I had to wait an hour and a half I REALLY appreciated that they accommodated me the same day because I was in so much pain!

I have had both Knee and Hip surgery with Dr. Bansal. I have had 100% improvement and feel fantastic. I am now going to have a right hip replacement, and though it's unfortunate, Dr. Bansal has exhausted all means to prevent this. I know that I will be brand new when he completes this surgery. I most highly recommend him to anyone who is going through severe joint pain. He'll know what to do!
