Vivek Bansal
"From start to finish Dr. Bansal and his staff have been fantastic. They are never inconvenienced by calls, emails or visits. I am in the medical industry and would not hesitate to refer Dr. Bansal. His bedside manner is top notch, he is very caring and willing to give you extra attention as needed. His knowledge of the bariatric patient and potential complications due to our diet and weight loss was very reassuring. He is honest in informing patients what procedures you may benefit from having done, and will not sell procedures that will not benefit you."

Gregory Broderick-Villa
"Dr. Broderick-Villa is a very good doctor. I immediately found his personality and bedside manner to be in line with the type I would need to make me feel confident. I originally went in for the lap band and he had the unfortunate duty after oredring tsts to let me know I would not be a good candidate after finding out I had sever reflux issues. He them discussed other options with me and I chose the GBS. My husband met him at my pre surgical appointment and found him to be very confident and personable, which put us both at ease, even asked him about his success and failures. On the day of surgery as I was sitting on the operating table I was relating my one other surgical experience to the anethesiologist and mentioned listening to music to calm my nerves, he pulled out his itouch and asked what I wanted to listen to, and put on some Nora Jones before I went under. That was the last memory I have pre surgery. He came to the hospital twice a day to check on me even on Saturday when I checked out that afternoon. He listened to my families concerns, while I was in surgery my mother, who had GBS 2 days before in another town, not at a center of excellence, started to hemmorrage. My husband pulled the staff aside right after I returned from the recovery room and they called Dr. Broderick-Villa, and he immediately changed his medical protocol to aide in potentially protecting me from the same possible outcome as we have a hemophilia issue in our family. I would not hesitate to recommend him. "
