Dr. Banuelos has a great personality (gentle, compassionate, patient, funny) and, more importantly, is an expert in his field - gyn. surg.
He's about 50, from Chicago, and also speaks spanish.
After I struggled for a few years with heavy bleeding, prolapse, and anemia I had to find a doctor I could trust. I had my heart set on a female doctor and found that no one (I tried three) made me feel as comfortable as Dr. Banuelos. He gave me all the informaton I needed to accept the fact that surgery was necessary.
The first doctor I went to didn't address the side effects of Lupron or the fact that it was only a temporary fix. The side effects seem to be permanent. She did not suggest a biopsy to rule out cancer. She was very hard to understand (heavy accent) and seemed impatient when I asked for more information. The second and third doctors were not gentle. They were also condescending.
I had never had a surgical procedure done and was very apprehensive. Dr. Banuelos performed a uterine biopsy in the office, and referred me to a uro/gyn for bladder tests. Once the results were in, he had provided enough information to let me accept that I needed surgery.
In September 2006, Dr. Baneulos performed a vaginal hysterectomy with a rectocele repair (colporrhaphy). I wish I had this surgery years ago! It was not painful, just uncomfortable.
He has continued to be kind and, most importantly, patient during aftercare.
How could he improve? I can't think of anything he could change. He's a great doctor.
