My regular doctor is retiring and I was referred to Dr Banzhaf. I was very happy with my first visit and I am relieved to have found a new doctor that I liked immediately. She is a great listener. She never made me feel rushed and I am very happy that I will be seeing her going forward. She has excellent communication skills and a caring personality. I'm looking forward to trusting her with my needs.”

“
Dr. Banzhaf is absolutely wonderful. I hadn't been to a doctor in several years for check ups because I was worried I wouldn't feel comfortable talking to them about how I was feeling, but she creates such a safe environment and makes you feel like she cares. She listens to what you are saying and actually believes you. She has made me feel welcomed and normal, I would recommend her to absolutely everyone who's looking for a new primary care provider.”
