Dr Banka has a very pleasant manner. He was thorough in his approach and explained the tests and diagnosis very clearly. I was pleased that he recommended a number of tests and identified issues very quickly (after months of trying to get the issue addressed through the NHS).

Explanation

Impolite behaviour, when I asked questions he advised me rudely to consult with the GP whilst he could’ve been politely explained. Rushed to finish the consultation on both occasions I’ll suggest don’t just take my words and try mystery shoppers to verify Mr Banka’s behaviour I wouldn’t have come back for follow up but sadly had no choice. He didn’t give me any plan how to deal with the shortness of breath whilst all the results were normal.

Doctor Banka is very calm and easy to talk to, he listened to all my symptoms, ordered the appropriate tests and diagnosed and treated me for issues that have been bothering me for years and severely affecting my day to day life. I feel so much better already and feel very lucky to have been referred to him and would highly recommend him to others. Thank you so much Doctor Banka!
