Dr. Bala is truly excellent and highly skilled. His demeanor is very friendly, and his medical expertise is exceptional. My husband suffered a facial bone fracture due to an accident, including a fracture in the orbital floor. A total of 4 plates were used for fixation. Under the doctor's skillful treatment, there was absolutely no scar left on his cheek. Furthermore, the doctor is very amiable and approachable. I highly recommend this physician.
