Lesanemariam T. Banko, MD

Dr. Banko has been my Father's cardiologist for 15 years- he found issues that others missed or downplayed and my Dad is literally alive due to his care . His findings lead to a life- saving surgery . His care is exceptional and he is thorough and professional.

I have had the privilege of being a patient of Dr. Banko for the past eight years, and I can confidently say that my experience has been nothing short of outstanding. From the front office staff to the back office medical assistants, the level of professionalism and care has always been exemplary. Dr. Banko himself is a consummate professional, consistently demonstrating thorough knowledge and a compassionate approach to care. He takes the time to answer all of my questions, providing clear, concise, and informative explanations. On one occasion, Dr. Banko went above and beyond by asking me when my next appointment with my primary care physician was. Upon hearing that it would be three months before I could get in, he immediately took the initiative to contact my primary doctor and ensured I was seen that very same day. This level of dedication to my health and well-being is truly remarkable. Throughout the years, Dr. Banko encouraged me to pursue a procedure due to my ongoing battle with atrial fibrillation (Afib). While I was initially hesitant and fearful of the procedure, Dr. Banko's persistence and genuine concern for my health finally convinced me to take action. I will never forget how he actually begged me to undergo the procedure, and in hindsight, I am incredibly grateful I did. It turns out that the implant I received was absolutely necessary, and it has made a significant difference in my overall health. I truly believe that Dr. Banko has had a profound impact on my life, and I am thankful for his unwavering support and care throughout the years. His commitment to his patients and his proactive approach to medical care make him a standout in his field. I highly recommend Dr. Banko to anyone in need of a cardiologist.

I went to Dr. Banko for palpations and he took very good care of me. Took my concerns seriously which doesn't always happen with doctors. The staff are amazing and I never had any problems getting in to see the Dr. Great experience!

I have been under the excellent care of Dr.B and his staff for over 15 years. Prior to Dr.B, my health care providers didn't address my cardiac issues- so I suffered for years. After meeting with Dr.B I just felt for the FIRST time in years YEARS that I was finally heading in the right track to getting well and addressing my issues. Dr.B has been on point with my continued cardiac care. Both Dr.B and his staff are competent,efficient,clear and concise communicators and kept positive at all my appointments and treatments. I couldn't ask for anything more because I have gotten and will continue to receive excellent care from Dr.B and his staff. Without him and his staff I would have died and I would not be writing this.

This doctor was my grandmas heart doctor. He gave my grandma the green light so she could get operated from her arm and said her heart was ok . A week later she went to the hospital and had a heart attack. Hospital said she had clogged arteries . And the 29th of May she passed way!!! How is that possible if my grandma would go to all her appointments with you!! Dr bankl said her heart was ok to even get operated! Dr bankl now says that he didn't know that diagnosis because the hospital does more extensive testing of the heart! So why the hell would you not know if you are a heart doctor!!!!!!!! You are a HEARt doctor! In memory of my grandma Mary this will Not stay like this .
