The visit was wonderful. Dr Vish was very attentive and knowledgable.
Very clear in understanding the problems and providing the advise.
Everything was perfect but you may wait more than you expected.
Verified patient
Dr. Banthia was very nice and the meds he prescribed me worked very well... that being said, I had to wait an hour and half in the room for him to see me. That was not fun. He was apologetic but still, having to wait for an hour and half is not fun, especially when you have to pay for parking and the price is going to every few minutes.

Cold doctor. Decided to bill me 6 months later for services I didn’t use. Would recommend you get off Zoc Doc and call the doctors instead to make sure they’re in network and don’t rely on an antiquated app.
Professional, and informative

He is AWESOME
Verified patient
He paid attention to what I said and gave me explanation regarding the symptoms and educated me about all the factors that could cause me the sinus pain I was experiencing. I will be referred some examination procedures and just to make sure we have no doubts about his diagnosis.
Verified patient
Great Dr. Great Guy.
Verified patient
He listened intently to my specific problems and worked out a treatment that was suited to my specific circumstances. Will definitely be back and recommend to everyone I know!
Dr. Vish was great he listen to me and analysis my problem. He then knew what to do right away to fix the problem. I highly recommend him.
Dr. Banthia was very kind and extremely thorough. I have had other doctors rush me out for the same symptoms that Dr. Banthia took time to listen to. One of the best doctor visits I have ever had!
Verified patient
I had plastic surgery by Dr. "B" - love my results. He is an excellent surgeon and is very straight forward and he tells you how it is- which worked great for me.
Finally, a doctor that you can trust and don't dread going to see!! From my first visit, I knew that Dr. Banthia was in a class of his own. I was a bit worries that someone with such impressive credentials would not take my concerns seriously- to my surprise, I appreciated his sincere, yet candid assessment and thorough explanations of treatment options. I didn't feel like I was getting fed the same stuff you read online. After my second visit, I even felt comfortable enough trying cosmetic procedures for the first time (which was a big step for me). Every time I leave his office I feel better and look better too!
