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.

Wasn't very thorough. Still have the issue.
He put me on a blader med. I used it for a couple weeks and wasn't having to get up as much at night. He told me my second and last vist I'll see ya in a year a to take the medicine and do kegals but still isn't fixing my problem. I've had 4 kids vaginally my youngest was 8 at the time. I wasn't necessarily new to kegels. And it definitely hasn't fixed anything doing them.

No I wouldn’t recommend him! Get another referral!
He can’t stand for the patient to ask questions! He don’t like to get interrupted at all! He’s rude and doesn’t like to explain anything to the patient!! If you get recommended to him, you better get someone else!!

I had to go to the urologist after my first kidney stones. When Dr. Bankston came in he seemed very annoyed with the questions I had. He even stated “I get kids like you all the time that don’t know what they are talking about.” Then when he left the room I heard him say “it’s like talking to a kindergartner.” Keep in mind I’m a 21 year old male who was nothing but respectful and asking questions about my own health. I’m very disappointed and wouldn’t recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Bankston was very rude and unprofessional. Terrible bedside manner. My very first visit with him. I had questions and concerns and he was annoyed by them. I felt like I was on an assembly line and he was just trying to move to the next patient. When he walked out the room I could hear him through the door making the comment "Chit-chat all she wants to do is chit-chat I don't have time for that" I'm sorry but talking about the weather is chit-chat. My health and concerns is NOT.
