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.

Back in 06/21 I was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer. I have been going to the facility ever Tuesday since then for a booster shot. Dr. Bala and her whole team have been nothing but spectacular from checking in to the awesome nursing staff. I have to have a stem cell transplant in November and I wouldn't be ready without them. Dr. Bala is retiring at the end of the year she will be missed.

Wonderful doctor; great person
After several cancer conditions Dr. Bala has been screening me for cancer. She has been my oncologist since 2009. Her doctoring skills are top notch, she takes her time with me answering all my questions and, above all, she is a wonderful person. I am very fortunate to have Dr. Bala as my oncological physician.

Dr Bala’s PA, Megan, and the infusion team at Cedar Park Regional Hospital also deserve a 5-star rating. As a cancer survivor I have always received very compassionate care from all of them. I couldn’t receive better care than what they have provided !

Very Impressed
This was my first visit with Dr. Balasubramanian and I was totally blown away with my experience. I've been a patient with Texas Oncology for over 10 years and she is my 3rd doctor. She took the time to listen to my concerns and experiences, gave me options that I had not heard about or explored before. I appreciate that she researched additional treatments and presented the options to myself and husband, so we could investigate and collaborate on the best possible treatment for me. I have heard very positive things about Dr. Balasubramanian from other patients I am acquainted with and from my own family practice doctor, and they were correct in their assessment of her. I look forward to working with her in the future for my care.

Relocated to be near Texas Oncology
I was treated out of town but I wanted to live closer to my grown children and I'm so glad to have Dr. Balasubramanian (Dr. Bala) when I relocated to Cedar Park. Dr. Bala is very kind and wants to listen and understand. She has patience to explain anything I questioned even the repetitive questions (sometimes chemo fog makes me forgetful) but Dr. Bala gladly repeats the answers with some new explanations. I believe Dr. Bala has a very good staff, receptionists, nurses, assistants and pharmacists. They (minus 1 or 2) all have very well-manners and patience. I love her phlebotomists. Very gentle and kind with inserting needles. There was a time when I didn't feel like having a trainee do my port insert, the nurse was very quick to change trainee to professional nurse. No questions. I felt respected. (I eventually had the same trainee do my port at another time because I felt better and trainee did a great job!). Their teamwork including Dr. Balasubramanian are awesome!
