Dr. Agarwal is perhaps the best doctor I have ever had. He has great bedside manner and consideration for the patient. He has been well trained at top universities and hospitals and is knowledgeable and spends plenty of time to address any of your concerns with treatment. This oncologist is as good as it gets when especially for something as traumatizing as cancer and its treatment. Dr. Agarwal is a wonderful doctor and most importantly, wonderful human being. Very highly recommended. All medical students at Vanderbilt would do well to be required to shadow Dr. Agarwal in his practice to gain an understanding of how to treat patients and appropriately address their concerns.
