Patient Reviews
Mar 12, 2018
We started going to Dr. Bankett's office 5 years ago, we now have 4 little ones who she sees, and there is not another pediatrician I would recommend. Dr. Bankett and her staff have always worked with my family. We have called and worked with the office manager and nurses when our kids are sick, and they have worked with us to get a same day appointment based on if Dr. Bankett feels it is necessary. They have also numerous times without our prompting to take care of insurance issues for us.
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. Tollese Bankett, MD.
