She was excellent and over and above to help my daughter feel comfortable with how to address her injury. The tech who checked us in was very helpful and put my daughter at ease.

Dr. Bancroft is an excellent provider, and McFarland is lucky to have her. I’ve put off going to the doctor and just dealt with living with pain. She was very thorough in her explanation of why I was in pain and then also solutions to getting better. The amount of time she spent with me was above and beyond and truly demonstrated extraordinary care.
