UofU Patient November 15, 2013I was surprised at the attentiion given by Dr. Agarwal - it has been my experience that they usually just tell me it is not really important and not to worry about it. He was just the opposite.
UofU Patient November 11, 2013Dr. Agarwal cares about both the physical and emotional needs of his patients. He always asks about any concerns that I might have and answers any questions. He really explained procedures/surgery, and possible complications as well. Dr. Agarwal also kept me in the hospital the right amount of time/number of days. Office visits are always informative and address any followup care that I might need. I am scheduled to see Dr. Agarwal in three months to make sure that I am healing as I should be . He's the best and I am fortunate to have him and his team helping me to get better. Thank you very much.
