Patient Reviews
Sep 08, 2024
Dr. Bannon is the most experienced, the most caring, the best sergeon in NE Pennsylvania. I cannot thank him enough for his professionalism and the compassionate way he guided me through the entire process. He has truly made a life-changing difference, and I’m so grateful to have had him as my surgeon.I was especially impressed by his follow-up call two weeks after the surgery to check on how I was doing and to make sure my recovery was going well. This phone call was a week after the follow-up visit in his office.
