She is amazing as a doctor and human being. I was scared about the procedure- she put me at ease and made the right decision regarding my care. I was truly blessed to had been referred to Dr. Banki. Her staff is amazing too, Raquel followed up by phone cal when my FMLA documents were sent. The nurses at Memorial Hermann were amazing and they all spoke very highly of Dr. Banki.
