Dr. Banister is the BEST PCP I have ever had. She works hard with compassion, kindness and a heart of gold. No other doctor has gone the distance to figure out the rare disease I had been suffering from for many years. Trinity, you are lucky to have such a dedicated physician like Dr. Banister!

Dr. Banister ordered lower back X-rays to check if new issues with my L4 and L5 areas because I have new back pain. The X-rays results indicated need for further imaging and that is scheduled. Dr. Banister is very dedicated and an excellent physician.

Dr. Banister was helpful but not as helpful as other appts I've had with her. Maybe the matters at hand were newer to her and she needed to research them. I still appreciate her very much.
