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.

Very unprofessional
This was my first time seeing her and it will be my last. She gave me a lecture that I haven't had my physical in a while and next time go to patient first when I am sick. Next she did a quick overview without really talking to me. She is not a doctor you want to go at all because she not a personal doctor or cares about you. She need to find a career where she can focus on herself.

Unpleasant experiences
Difficulty to understand, wait time is long, nurse was not friendly & not sure what she was doing! It takes long time with many email , phone massages to find out for the tests results.

I was a patient of Dr. Aggarwal's for several years. She doesn't spend much time with you, and just throws medicine at your problems without much explanation. On my last visit with her, which was my very last with her, I had to go in because she would not refill my antidepressants (that she prescribed for me) and in that visit told me I was a good candidate for a gastric sleeve. She knows I struggle with my weight, but that I am active and watch what I eat. I was mortified and it destroyed all of the progress I had made with my mental health. I would never recommend her and would give her zero stars if I could.

Nothing but great things to say about my experince with Dr. Aggarwal. She shows true concern with my health to the point I feel bad if I'm not taking care of myself the way I should. As a black male I have never really been big on going to the doctor, but she has really changed my views about how important it is to have regular checkups. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a truly thorough doctor...

wonderful experience! I have finally found someone who listens after years of going around. I have never felt this good in my whole life. All my family now goes to see her.

Very poor follow up skills. Her staff is incompetent and lack pretty juvenile knowledge about prescribing medications. Quite disappointing experience overall.
