About Lan Ban
Lan Ban, MD, enjoyed teaching after college, a first career that inspired him to become a physician. “As a teacher, I enjoyed talking with students, learning from them, and building relationships. Teaching taught me to celebrate small successes and problem-solve with creativity,” he recalls. In his medical practice today, he continues to use the same principles with his patients that he used with his students. “Being a medical provider allows me to interact with people and continuously learn and teach.” Dr. Ban encourages patients to participate actively in their own care, emphasizing the importance of a care plan designed together. He also places high importance on patient autonomy and their role in shared medical decision-making. “I value each person as a whole regardless of their background, social standing, gender, race, age, or sexual orientation,” he says. “Anyone can become sick, and everyone who’s sick can benefit from some medical attention.” Dr. Ban has an undergraduate degree in biomedical engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology. After college, he spent a year with AmeriCorps tutoring students with learning disabilities and teaching algebra at an inner-city high school in Tennessee. He then pursued his medical degree at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and completed his internship and residency at Providence St. Vincent Hospital. Born and raised in China, Dr. Ban came to the United States at age 16 and spent most of his time in Georgia and Tennessee. He enjoys hiking and soccer and is fluent in Mandarin.

Providence Patient
This was my first visit with Dr. Ban as a new patient. (Why those " past 3 month" questions didn't apply). I'm grateful he accepted me as a new patient, even more so after meeting him. He is kind and thorough, very easy to talk to. Silly as it may sound, the fact he also took the time to do a cursory physical exam was most impressive. I feel I am in very good hands.

I was having a pretty serious allergic reaction with the seasonal change and Allergic reactions I was able to get him to the doctor before I was traveling out of town.

Providence Patient
Dr Lan Ban is not my regular doctor but he was excellent. One of the best doctors that I have ever seen. I am ver frustrated with your clinic. It is very difficult to talk with someone at the clinic without holding for a very long time. I leave messages on my chart and it takes days to hear back and my questions are not always answered. I was frustrated by the lack of response so I went online and found an opening with Lan Ban and he explained everything about a recent blood test that came back elevated. He also referred me to a specialist which I so appreciated. I love my regular doctor as well but the clinic need help.
Providence Patient
Dr Ban made several recommendations that were well timed and fortuitous for me to!
Providence Patient
Dr Ban is the best doctor I've ever had. He never rushes you and is very attentive. I have referred. Over 11 patients to him, and they all agree!
