Quality care IF you actively advocate for yourself or your loved one. Medical and nursing staff are stretched too thin. It's time to buy some new cots for people who wish to stay overnight with family. Or repair the ones you have. My poor back will never be the same. Please reconsider the food options in the cafeteria and vending machines. Limited to no healthy, low carb or low/no sugar options are available. Even adding a freezer section and stocking it with Lean Cuisines or Healthy Choice meals would be a welcomed improvement! Yogurt with low/no sugar and more fruit without fructose syrup is a must. Add some more coffee makers, you run out too frequently. The salad selections are good. The soups are extremely salty. read more

If your get referred to Banner Health, ask for a referral for someone else. I got referred to see some scammer named Nawaz. Drove all the way across the valley to have a nurse take my blood pressure, leave me in a room for 40 minutes, then tell me Nawaz didn't feel like he needed to see me. No other explanation. When I tried to call to get my copay back, they just told me I needed to speak to someone in a different department and put me in a loop of "on hold" until someone would just hang up on me or I'd get a voicemail. I never got my copay back, or any reimbursement for my travel. I had his office refer me to some woman at another Banner Scam center, drove all the way across the valley again to see her and her little team, just to have her basically call me a hypochondriac. I still have the same issues years later. Don't go to Banner Health. Ever. If you have no choice, refuse to pay your copay until you've actually been seen, because they'll steal it and shut you out. read more

Billing is a total scam. They want you to pay at the time of visit even though I have traditional insurance. I had multiple appointments this year, and they have collected more than the insurance company says is allowed. Right now they owe me money. They keep sending me bills. I call and point out that the OWE ME and then they say "oh you have credits that weren't applied correctly", but they still haven't corrected it, and still keep sending bills. And how is it that they aren't refunding the credits - the money is just hanging out in their system. Absolute fraud. read more

I absolutely love my primary care physician, but I absolutely hate Banners new system of having a bunch of idiots answer the phone instead of getting to talk to the office! You have no control over what they send to the office nor do they even care! Due to Banners absolutely crappy care! All they can say answering services go to urgent care or ER!! Gee who is going to pay for that!! I will be looking at changing my Medicare plan which I hate to do because I will lose the best primary care doctor I've ever had, but I cannot tolerate this. I don't care attitude because we have more money and we don't need to worry about losing one patient! read more

Terrible experience. Dr. Bullard is a cruel man. The emergency room I understand is a very busy place with all manner of things walking through the door. There were people with stab wounds and people vomiting in that waiting room for hours on hours. Then I ask a nurse and she tells me they only have two providers on staff. We wait four hours and so we decide to go to the desk to pay and leave. I mentioned the two providers thing and he scoff and said we have more than two providers. How else would we stay open. So I'm confused;which is it. Id never return here. Wasted time,money, energy. For some Tylenol. read more

The patient care is a case by case basis. There are competent and compassionate healthcare providers that work for Banner. Getting care is probably fair. Dealing with their billing department is an absolute nightmare. They do not bill the correct insurance and error on the side of sending people to collection. I'll die before I get care there again. read more

Zero patient care. Zero logic. My radiology doctor said they do not recommend a certain mri, but a computer generated suggestion was made and bc of that the transplant committee said I have to have it done. But they don't want to consider what the actual radiologist or technician is recommending, which both said it's not necessar. I also have had many radiology tests bc I just had a baby and did lol my transplant testing and a other imaging, I would say I've had 20-30 imaging tests recentl, at what point have we exposed me to too much and are causing more harm then good, nothing is found no further testing is recommended, so what ARE WE doing? what a joke I will be telling everyone not to utilize BANNER HEALTH OR BANNER TRANPLAMT. I've already spoken to several family members and a friends and let them know to not work with them. We've all left banner. read more

Called to leave a message for my doctor and was on hold for 17 minutes. I selected 1 for a call back. When I received the call back, I was 2nd in line for a representative. I have been on hold for 38 minutes before I hung up and. called back using the scheduler to get a message to her. 55 minutes of my time waiting to leave a message. This is totally unacceptable for health care service. read more

Oh my, I went to Banner Health Clinic in Mesa. I made an appointment with Dr. Angela Feng for establishing. They didn't say anything about contract with United Healthcare. They just book it. So, I couldn't see the doctor today. First, I entered, I saw 4 ladies are at the window. No eye contact, no welcome words. But employees were busy talking to each other. What a terrible place. Well, I'm so glad my insurance was denied. I will never be back in that place. Banner is sure going down. read more

Banner Health System - This is the urin covered bedding this morning - Hospitals Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

If I could rate Banner a zero I would. They have tried to bill be 3 times for the same bill I paid at the hospital. While my wife was dying they sent someone to the room to demand payment for her care. Even though I had insurance they forced me to pay while I was grieving and distraught. Please choose another hospital! read more

If zero stars were an option, that's what this hospital would get. Two months trying to fix a billing error they created, over four hours on hold, and still no resolution. They misapplied my payment to the wrong account even though both accounts have the same name, birthdate, and address. Instead of correcting the mistake internally, they make patients chase them to fix their own incompetence. This is one of the most frustrating billing experiences I've ever had. If this is how the hospital manages something as simple as applying a payment correctly, it raises serious concerns about how the rest of their systems are being managed. read more

Unfair billing practices!!!!!. Takes over a one year to resolve billing issue, and then by the time you see the doctor again the problem starts all over the next year!!! read more

Worst clinical care in Arizona. Just received 10 emails from Banner telling me to look at care information in their portal. Each email was directed me to different types of information. After an wasted hour I couldn't get into my account. Today I follow up and learned that the information was over three weeks old and useless. When I requested a response from the management team, I was treated with calls transfers to people who wouldn't help. So unless you like to waste time, don't complain about Banner. They're not good for your mental health. read more

Their hospitals rooms are so dirty. The sink looks like it hasn't been cleaned in months. The sink in bathroom and in room both were terrible. The floor had dirt pushed up in corners like the person didn't know how to sweep or clean. This was loose dirt mostly. The blinds were coated in stuff splattered on them with about 1/3 inch of dust. I wouldn't go back to this hospital for anything. read more

Banner Health System has the worst scheduling system I have ever seen. No. 1 Issue, they fail to have trained staffing at all times. No. 2, they fail to train the scheduling staff properly. I'm sitting in a room for my scheduled appt and no nurse available that can access a port. More importantly, you need to verify your port. This is a time-sensitive medical procedure Guess who haven't eaten as it requires fasting. This is my second-failed attempt to complete procedure. Sadly, they are aware and continue to fail to properly address such an epic problem. My doctor and I knew we would face challenges; however, can't condemn us for hoping for a better outcome. read more

Banner Health System - Inside my prep room! - Hospitals Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I informed the office when making the appt that I wanted to discuss my recent CT scan. I waited in the exam room for 30 minutes before I approached the nursing station. I asked if I should reschedule. I was told he was reviewing my chart/info. When Brandon Jones, PA finally arrived, he was unapologetic - actually resentful. I should have walked out right then. This unprofessional attitude carried through the entire consult. I reviewed notes in the My Banner app and saw a phone conversation documented with me that never happened. How can a medical professional record a conversation with a patient that never occurred? Never again. It's UC Health and CU Medical Ctr from now on. read more

Got roped into a $310 bill that never was supposed to happen. I got switched off the provider I was supposed to see and got passed into a referral network that went no where. billing is HORRENDOUS. It's no wonder these guys are losing law suits. Save your money, go elsewhere read more

Getting medical records is a joke. They sent me a link to access medical records but we need a patient name and dob. We use a third party business to handle our records-they would have no clue who its for. And when I call to ask how to retrieve that information-they cant give it to me. I cant even try to request them again because I have no clue who they are for. We have over 5,000 patients and over 50+ employees requesting information. I get HIPAA but this is impossible. Super crappy patient care if you ask me. read more

Was with 2 different friends at Banner hospitals in the past week. LOTS of frustration and disappointment. Communication from doctors was terrible. One friend was in the hospital for 3 days with 2 broken arms and only saw an orthopedic doc 10 minutes before surgery and he didn't even bother to introduce himself. Told us surgery would take 90 minutes before and he would come and talk to us in the waiting room after. 7 hours later we finally got to see the patient and never did see the doc after 4 calls to the surgery department where they kept telling us to wait in the waiting room and he would come talk to us. NEVER did. We have no idea what was done in the OR, but the patient survived and is back to her room. We were lied to by the doc and at least for surgery/recovery room nurses. Floor nurses have been great but communication SUCKS and lying in healthcare is NEVER Acceptable. read more

On a scale of 1 to ten, I would give this business a sub zero rating for piss poor service. Telephone calls to speak to doctor, and/or assistants, go unanswered in excess of a week's time. read more

The Banner system as a whole sticks. Takes forever to get appointments but are sure to collect that money. Like most Healthcare in the US they don't care about you just your money. The few doctors that i have come in contact with have been pretty good but corporations should not be running Healthcare. read more

I have been a patient with Banner for 5 years now and I just found out that they will no longer be excepting Medicare patients EXCEPT in Maricopa county - really? Are you seriously thinking you will make more money with ONLY 1 county - I have been a strong supporter, as Banner saved my life - this is why I signed up for their HMO - WOW - thank you for NOT supporting your patients and thinking only about the $$ - or did you make enough money off of Colorado so you just don't give a damn about your patients. It takes forever to get into my PPC and I'm just done - thank you for no longer caring about your patients, giving into the mighty $$ and no longer caring. I worked in Healthcare for 40 years and our healthcare system worked with the patients, instead of giving them less than 30 days notice!!!! Yes, I'm pissed and I have every right to be. read more

Do not trust this hospital nor the people employed by the hospital. Went in for a first time patient appointment. Was regarding a toxicology referral type of care. Unbeknownst I was greeted by 2 doctors which made me feel uncomfortable. They went into the appointment with a premeditated opinion and downplayed a serious gas exposure incident that changed my life the day it happened to me. I would never seek treatment from this hospital again due to the negligence of practicing doctors at this hospital. Be aware. ​ read more

Continuous problems initiating there Portal they push to make appointments and to communicate with doctors However in the last 3 times I tried utilizing there program is a HUGE JOKE as the last 3 times u go to make my appointments and they show no record of an appointment being made Save yourself frustration and anger as call and get the name of person who confirms appointment as if you use there portal Good Luck as you'll be sorry when you get to Banner and they show no record read more

If I could provide a zero or negative score I would. From start to finish, my experience with Banner Health was horrible. I had to pre-pay over $2000 even though I had insurance in order to receive care. I received multiple reassurances that no other charges would be billed, which was not the case when I received a bill 6 months later. Banner Health partakes in deceptive practices and bills for nursing errors. They are impossible to reach to dispute a billing error -- ignoring or responding days later for phone calls, with very rude agents. They do not respond to emails except to confirm they received it, nor do they respond to mail even when sent certified. They only responded after a complaint was filed with the Attorney General's office. In their response they ignored the billing dispute stating it was an insurance issue, which was not the case. They also falsely stated they provided documents that were never received until after the formal dispute was filed. There is zero regard for the patients they serve and they lack integrity. I have informed my family that regardless of the situation, to never take me to a Banner Healthy facility again. I urge others to avoid seeking care from such a corrupt and unscrupulous medical company as well! read more

There are three things I look at when going for medical treatment. How competent is the medical staff. How competent is the office staff. And, How competent is the billing group. Every time I have visited Banner I have had good out comes except for the billing group. I just received a bill in the mail and went to pay it online at the Banner web site. When I looked at my account it showed a zero balance. I called the billing phone number and got a recording that there was high call volumes and to leave my phone number to not loose my place in line. So I did. After 5 hours of no call back from Banner I decided to call back. After 20 minutes a lady finally answered and asked for my name and phone number. I told her that I had left my phone number 5 hours ago and had not received a call back. The lady told me that someone would call me back sooner or later. I asked to talk to a supervisor and was told that there were none available. I told the lady that I was disappointed with their level of customer service and was going to go ahead and let the bill go to collections! read more

Adding to the one star reviews here -- excellent providers in a catastrophically poor system. Today's beef is that after realizing that I had not received any reminders for an appointment tomorrow I'd better check online. First stop in the patient portal showed no upcoming appointments-- but noted that not all appointments are visible in that system, so click here. Clicked, oh good! There's the appointment. But where is BTMC? Googled to figure out it's a location I've never been to for a clinic where I've been followed for 10 years. After a brief hold there, I got someone who was unable to tell me where my appointment is. She transferred me to Banner Gateway, which is where I've always been seen. That's when I started typing this. Hold time thus far has been 14 minutes and counting. IT SHOULD NOT BE THIS DIFFICULT TO CONFIRM AN APPOINTMENT, but everything in the Banner system is this difficult and has been as long as I've been a patient. I have jettisoned one specialty group, but have 2 doctors who are worth the trouble. When I need a new provider I look elsewhere. BTW, the estimated hold time was 5-11 minutes. After 15 I got a response and was able to confirm my appointment, the change in location on the portal "is due to a" (completely opaque) "coding change." The person I spoke with was unable to tell me why I did not receive reminders, "but check with registration" (which is always a time suck in it's own right, "we're understaffed," but never offset in the charges). If you can, GO ELSEWHERE. read more

I came to the emergency room for issue I am having. The wait time was a little long , but I understand. The nurses and doctors are very good and helpful. I thank them for their hard work. I was place in room #16 where I was laying down for my issue. I received an EKG, C T scan and ultrasound. Each time I return back to room 16 . At 10:55 P.M. I was told I am being moved to another room. Well that was not the case . My wife took pictures of the first room I was in and now here is the second room. I am very hurt that this hospital treat people like this. Now I have too sit in this stall and continue to wait. I am going to need surgery in the morning it's midnight the next day . This administration need to treat people better. The staff that are working here are hard working people who deserve better too. read more

Banner Health System - This is the 2nd room I was place at , a single room shower stall. It might as well be. - Hospitals Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

See all

I use them for my health care and my PMD. Called for an appointment in August and could not get in until October. Just to renew my (very few) meds and get a check up. The date and time they gave me was wrong and when I saw "missed" an appointment they said I had it wrong. It would be another 6 weeks until I could see my doctor or ANY doctor. So I tried to book an appointment with another Banner facility and was successful in getting something in 3 weeks. 2 days after booking this, I get a call saying I can't change facilities (Why?), but they will get me in to see my doctor on December 4th and cancel the appointment with the other Banner facility. I go to the appointment on December 4th - that they made for me - to be told the appointment was cancelled. So Banner cancelled the appointment they made for me instead of the one I made the other facility (because according to them, that was not allowed). Now I can't see a doctor until March 30, 2025, and it's December 4th, 2024. I've been trying to see a doctor since August 2024. It will be 8 months to get an appointment and a doctor and the practitioner I'm seeing is not my doctor but a nurse practitioner. And according to another one of their idiotic policies, you can't get your prescriptions renewed unless it's from your primary doctor. How is this health care? This is corporate nonsense. No one cares about helping patients. How can you wait 8 MONTHS to see a doctor with the so called "great health care" we get here? And waiting 8 months, the doctor or NP you see can't order your meds because they are not your primary doctor? It's mind boggling nonsense. read more

This review is strictly with the billing department. They owe me $133 that I overpaid. Trying to get it back has taking me two months and still haven't gotten my money back. If I owed them the $133 I'd probably be in collections by now. Every time I call the billing department I'm on hold for at least 30-60 min then connected to three different people then they connect me to central billing and their recording says call during business hours which I do and it hangs up on me. I would go there in person if I could. Banner has many issues with their services. I'm slowly going to Dignity Health. read more

My wife and I travel extensively in our motorhome. I made an appointment 6 months in advance to make sure I could see a physician while I was in town in December.

My niece went to ER on Wednesday April 8,2026 early afternoon with stroke symptoms. She was offered some kind of medication and was told the odds are 50/50 if she takes it, so she declined the medication. She was advised that a MRI was needed because CAT scan wasn't detailed enough. She was told in order to do the MRI she must be admitted into the hospital, which she was and was told an order had been issued for the MRI for later that day, ( which NEVER happened) so she was again told they would schedule the MRI for early morning Thursday April 9,2026 at or around 6-7am. They did not do the MRI until after 3pm only after her mom spoke to the nurse and let them know this was unacceptable! Not sure if the reason of this poor patient care is because her insurance is through the state and or they believe that myth about black women and pain. Once they finished with the MRI, se was told that it was negative on the stroke. She received cholesterol medication, not sure why. Now today Friday April 10,2026 she was told that a heart ultrasound was needed due to possible stroke????? This has to be the most incompetent hospital I have ever seen. The reason for the delay on the MRI, was because they did NOT even order one, when they said they had. She was told by one nurse that the reason the MRI was not done on Wednesday is because she refused a medication that could have possibly killed her!!!! Never was she told she would be moved to the back of the line if she refused the medication! Banner Estrella you need to do BETTER!!!! read more
