Dr. Shalini Kansal is very rude and unprofessional she doesn't take her job serious at all . She makes jokes that aren't professional and doesn't take patients serious when they describe their pain to her; she doesn't listen to you and barely want to give you information. She is very insensitive I will not be coming back to this doctors office & will be leaving my review and also warning others about of this establishment .

I like the fact that the doctor asked the right questions, cared about my concerns, asked how long, when did I notice the symptoms, and is very prompt on having this taken care of and it removed immediately to be sent off to be tested. So I'm very, very thankful that she took the time to care about my needs and my medical condition. Thank you.

Dr. Kansal is amazing! She is so kind and thoughtful. She listens. She is very thorough and I appreciate that. I love her bubbly and welcoming personality. I've referred several friends and family members to Dr. Kansal. I will continue to do so because I know they will experience a doctor who cares for real. In today's society, that has sadly become rare. Thank you Dr. Kansal!
