Before the scalpel there was a keyboard, an open mic and a notebook of spoken word. That's not a footnote — it's the whole reason he treats voices the way he does.
College-band keyboardist and spoken-word poet. Years of performing taught him what a voice really is — not a body part, but the thing you put yourself into a room with.
Through ENT training, one sub-specialty kept pulling him back: the larynx. The voice box. The one organ that's also an identity.
A US clinical externship mentored by Dr Andrew Blitzer — widely called the father of neurolaryngology — sharpening his work on Botox for spasmodic dysphonia and neurological voice disorders.
A six-month fellowship under Dr Nupur Kapoor Nerula (Breach Candy & Bombay Hospital) in phonosurgery and CO₂ laser — the delicate art of operating on cords without costing a career.
He brought it all home to the Voice & Swallowing Clinic — the region's first practice built entirely around the professional voice.
Representing India on the global stage of laryngology — and, on the side, becoming the voice doctor the internet actually listens to.
For a singer it's income. For an anchor it's authority. For a founder it's the room. Dr Bansal treats the voice as what it actually is to the person who owns it — which is why he measures, films and diagnoses before he ever prescribes.

"Every doctor tells you to rest your voice. I want to know what your voice is for — and then keep it doing that."
Keyboardist since college. He hears voices the way a musician hears an instrument — pitch, break, fatigue, tone.
Open-mic poet. He knows the specific fear of standing up and not trusting the sound that comes out.
