  • The telemedicine visit was extremely beneficial due to my inability to get to the office. The physician was polite and helpful with my needs.

  • Listened, offered easy to understand remedies, was well informed of my history

  • Dr Bansal is always focused on my medical conditions and understands my issues. He listens and works with my needs and I appreciate that!

  • Nothing to add, just thank you

  • I was very happy to see that Dr. Bansal was as concerned as I was about the results of my most recent sleep study. And, that he's doing what he can to help me get another study done. Because without an accurate sleep study, I can't get a new CPAP machine... And I desperately need a new machine!

  • Everything was done very well. No improvements needed!

  • Felt comfortable with Dr Bansal looking to solve my issue. Thank you

  • First visit with this doctor. It started as a telephone question to the pulmonary department and then we were asked to come in and be seen. He did a good job.

  • Very professional. The best place to go for pulmonary.

  • Everything was perfect,

  • The Doctor was very attentive. And he explained my current health status very well as it pertained to my treatment. Actually it was a refreshing visit.

  • Good that I got a call earlier than expected because I really wanted to start the steroid cycle. Listens well and understood my situation and provided remedy properly.

  • Dr. Bansal was very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. It was a pleasure seeing him.

  • I don't give 10's, so 9 is the highestu00A0

  • This was my initial appointment with this provider. I was seen right on time. The staff was attentive and helpful. I felt I got adequate time with the doctor and he listened to my concerns. I was also able to get a chest X-ray immediately following my consult as well.

  • Explanations clear. All was excellent.

  • Liked the provider

  • Always on time and always polite and the dr spends time talking and explaining everything

  • Almost every appointment made at this doctor's office gets rescheduled by them. It gets tiresome having to rearrange my personal schedule to accommodate his. I understand his perspective, but they need to do better here, in my opinion.

  • This doctor is very knowledgeable and kind. He is attentive to what I have to say and is respectful of me and my time.

  • New patient. Very organized office. Prompt service

  • Everyone in Doctor Bansal office is very Nice &Helpful Staffing

  • This was my first meeting with this particular physician. I would ask for him again. He was direct, yet understanding, sympathetic, personable. Made me feel like I was in control of my outcome.Highly recommend!

  • The support personnel are always friendly and courteous. The nursing staff are as well and you may add professional and knowledgeable to that assessment. As for Dr Bansal, all of the above are true. He has a great bedside manner and I trust him.

  • From answering the phone to answering my questions everyone listened to what I said.

  • Very specific conversations had with my provider, never any room for misunderstandings, which I very much appreciate. They also worked with me to ensure I was able to get a new prescription for my CPAP on file soonest.

  • Then I got to the window, then she pulled my information, right away. I sat down, and got right back up, went in. Ten minutes later, I was walking out the door to get responses and thank God for the doctor. He helped me out a lot.

  • I am very comfortable with Dr. Bansal discussing my issues and treatments. The office and nursing staff is very friendly and helpful.

  • Provider took time to respond, good

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings.  Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and  Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office.  The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
