This was my first visit with this doctor. I was not impressed with her as I was explaining what was going on, she began examining me as I was talking. To me that was unprofessional. I do not feel like she took the time to listen to what I was saying about my health. To me, it felt like she was rushing me.

Staff was amazing & so welcoming! From the moment I was checked in, to the moment I was out the front door. Dr. Kansal was so friendly and welcoming. She carefully listened to all my concerns and gave me such a relief knowing what I was experiencing was not me being dramatic, she diagnosed me instantly & gave me options to better my health!

A good experience. Dr. Kansal went over the surgery + what postop healing would be. And that everything went well + my recovery will be fine.

Second time to be operated on by Dr. Kansal and not at all worried as I know she knows what she's doing and has a lovely personality. The nurses are attentive and so is the Doctor about my problems, no trouble answering and engaging in casual conversation; 10/10 as always.

Shalini Kansal, MD Was rude , useless and unprofessional. She had no bedside manner. I have had sinus infection, she couldn't even diagnosed it. I didn't know how she got the good reviews or her degree. Took too long to got it ( for an appointment) and she didn't do anything." Scam". Waisted time and money. She didn't do her job.... So don't bill me.
