Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Disappointed.
My boyfriend went to the doctor for low testosterone and had multiple lab tests done. We then went to Dr. Balan to get some answers, and she ordered more labs to be done first thing in the morning. We waited more than a week for the results and had to call to follow up on them. Once the results were in, she said nothing was abnormal, even though his testosterone levels were not at their optimal range. It felt like she was just writing it off as nothing. Very disappointing experience.

I have now seen Dr Balan twice for a diabetic condition which was “out of control “ with high levels of glucose. She is very competent and helpful. My levels are already improved . She is pro active and knows what to do to help me. I’m very happy that I find this physician.

Dr.Balan I’m in good hands
My Endocrinologist DR.Balan she should be in the medical journal to me. She just as good as my DR. , in Bergen County New Jersey Dr. Balan give me all of her tension trying to help keep me alive. I feel as safe like like my doctors back up north. I was told by all my doctors you born with a rear disease Addison you can’t go to small medical facilities it has to be a trauma hospital. I feel safe with Dr. Balan, she takes a lot of blood work to see what’s going on in my body to help me live long as Jesus wants me to she’s a five star.

I am a patient of Dr. Balan.Seen her in 2007. My thyroid was shutting down and I had a goiter and nodules. As she recommended surgical removal. I did have surgery and within 3 months I was feeling a lot better. However, due to circumstances I had to move away. I called today to try to get a appointment so that Dr. Balan check my levels. I’m without my meds and feel awful. They would not see me without a referral yet I’m in system because someone didn’t have the curiosity to return my call. I need to see her really bad. She is the only one that has ever truly helped me! Please!!!! Even if I have to do a tele visit first. I need to talk to her or see her!

I saw Dr. Balan in the past for a couple of years until she had my health back to normal. I liked her very much then. I have returned now due to a thyroid issue. She is pleasant and interested in my issues and discussed my health in a professional way. I know I will be well cared for even if my tests do not come back with the best news. Despite how busy she is, she made me feel she had all the time in the world to take care of me.

Dr. Balen is kind, empathetic, and super smart. I see her for Diabetes, Hypothyroid, Hyperprolactemia, and a Pituitary Tumor. I have multiple other chronic conditions, stemming from Ehlers-Danilos Syndrome -> Dysautonomia -> etc... She is able to look at everything that is going on with my body and make good decisions that improve my quality of life. I’m excited to see what else she can ‘fix’ for me. Kudos to Dr. Bindibal Balen.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Dr Balan was cold and uncompassionate. I was overcharged due to a mix up with my insurance and it has been over 5 months of me still trying to chase down the refund the office owed me. The billing department was NO help -- never answered the phone or returned my calls. Please go anywhere other than this facility.
