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.

Professional, Great Staff
Referred to Dr. Agarwal; great scheduling, attentive care, friendly staff and great bedside manner! In short, a perfect experience!

New diagnosis Congenital LAD Bridge
Excellent bedside manner to begin with . Dr A was confident the would accurately diagnosis my chest pain without any doubt and he sure did . I was hospitalized at a different facility and was told “your heart is fine”. Well thank the Lord DR A ordered appropriate tests for me so I can get on living ! He’s the best from front office to medical assistants . Great experiment and will refer friends and family to him !

Best Doctor - I love him!!
He was a great doctor. He took the time to listen to what was happening and then explained how I could improve my health. He focused on a holistic approach and tried to improve my health without surgeries and medications, which I appreciated greatly. I will be bringing my whole family to him. Thank you, Dr. Agarwal!

He listens
I was there for a standard pre-op approval and because of my age he convinced me that it wasn't that simple. I needed to have a couple of tests done before he would sign off. I wasn't happy at the time but I'm very grateful that he cared enough and didn't just rubber stamp the approval.

Absolutely, Dr. Agarwal told me the first day I saw him that he would keep testing until he could assure me if I had a heart problem or not. He stayed true to his word. His whole staff was so professional, I never felt uncomfortable in any way. Thank you, Marylan Laviolette

Dr. Agarwal is wonderful doctor. I researched doctors in the area when I first moved here from out of state. I found out first hand why Dr. Agarwal was rated so high and got such excellent reviews. I first researched for a cardiologist for my Mom, who had clinical depression. Dr. Agarwal was so wonderful with her and showed such kindness and compassion, while doing a very thorough job taking care of her. I knew when the time came for me who my doctor would be. He is an amazing doctor.

Dr Agarwal is great,Good knowledge base & he is a very caring doctor. He Wants the best for his patients. He wants to really get to the root of your health issues. Explains everything in detail. Im not a person that likes doctors because they usually don’t care about me/us as a patient. Not the case here. So far so go. I would highly recommmend him.
