By care­ful­ly lis­ten­ing to your con­cerns and tak­ing the time to edu­cate you about yourmed­ical con­di­tions, I strive to help you make the best deci­sions for your health. I enjoy see­ing patients of all ages and make it my goal to treat each patient as I would my own family.

April is head and neck can­cer aware­ness month. Can­cer can devel­op in many loca­tions in the head and neck, and the treat­ment of head and neck can­cer is com­plex. Through smok­ing ces­sa­tion, the HPV vac­cine and year­ly phys­i­cals, you can reduce your risk for head and neck can­cer. Take charge of your health and sched­ule your year­ly phys­i­cal exam with your pri­ma­ry care provider by call­ing your pre­ferred loca­tion or click­ing here to schedule.

"Dr. Banas is by far one of the best doctors out there. Been a patient about 9 years. She is very responsive/attentive in person and on MyChart, good bedside manner, listens to the patient and understands the issues, gives the patient all options, and in my opinion is always on top of her game. These qualities are hard to find in doctor's these days!"

"Dr. Banas was friendly, easy to talk to and I enjoyed having a two-way conversation that helped with my issue. It is wonderful to have a two-way discussion with a doctor instead being talked down to or completely ignored and spoken to like a child. Can't stress that enough for a doctor just to discuss and suggest instead of spitting out commands."
