Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very happy with Dr Bansal

Not so trustworthy doctor’s office
I’m a patient in this clinic. They lied to me about my sleep study co-pay so I would do it with them. When the bill came, I had to pay almost extra $200, then when I made A complaint to the office, the billing manager had an audacity to tell me that I should know my insurance benefits! This is after they asked for my insurance card and did an insurance benefit check (or maybe they did not do their job that’s why I ended up paying more)! So I have issues with doctors office that cannot be trusted!

Dr. Bansal is an amazing doctor! She is kind, caring, compassionate, knowledgeable, and very bright! And she listens! I was worried about changing pulmonologists because I really liked my doctor, but she went to work for Kaiser, so I couldn’t see her any more. What a great choice in Dr. Bansal! My primary care practitioner referred me, and he always refers us to the best doctors, so I knew she had to be top-notch, and she Is! I have worked very hard to have incredibly good insurance, and could go to any doctor I wanted to, and I choose Dr. Bonsall! Thank you for caring so much about me and helping me so much!

THE PREVIOUS 5 STAR REVIEWS HAVE TO BE STRAIGHT OUT LIES!!!! THIS PLACE, DR. BANSAI, AND HER STAFF DESERVES NEGATIVE STARS. ONLY DESPERATE PEOPLE, WHO CAN'T AFFORD ANYWHERE BETTER GO THERE, AND I AM ONE OF THEM, AND AS ALWAYS I LEARN...LESSONS THE HARD WAY!!! I WAITED MONTHS FOR THIS APPOINTMENT, ONLY TO HAVE TO WAIT HOURS AND FINALLY WALKING OUT BEEN SEEN, BECAUSE I WAS TIRED OF WAITING, MORE SO DUE TO HAVING TO WEAR A MASK AND UNABLE TO BREATH DUE TO MY SINUS ISSUES AND THE HOT ROOM. MIND YOU, ON THE WAY OUT, I SAW DR. BANSAI, OR I SHOULD SAY SO CALLED DOCTOR ON HER CELLPHONE TEXTING BY THE FRONT OFFICE, EVEN THOUGH HER ASSISTANT HAD TOLD ME IT WOULD BE ABOUT 15 MINUTES, THAT I WAS NEXT OVER AN HOUR AGO!!! DEFINITELY MY FIRST TIME AND LAST TIME AT THIS DISGRACE OF A HEALTH PROVIDER OFFICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

REAL CARING DOCTORS ARE VERY HARD TO FIND, MORE SO – Aug 26, 2021

Dr Bansal's practice at Prime Pulmonary seems like a new-ish practice, but care is top notch. I've seen her for Cpap treatment, and it's the first time in the 10+ years of using these machines that I have felt that I have an interested doctor involved in my treatment. Can't say enough good things about her.
