Great listener. Very responsive to questions that I have or comments that I make.
Fantastic! He listened carefully and was knowledgeable about my past medical history. Very friendly and easy to talk to,
He seemed compassionate and very knowledgeable
Good
Dr. Agrawal listens to my concerns.I never feel rushed.
He really took the time to really listen and went above and beyond into doing further research to help me out with my illness.
Mostly great. However, didn't feel like he reviewed my medical files before entering the exam room. We had to remind him of things or he asked questions we already felt with previously. But once we reminded him or he read his notes in the exam room he was good
The doctor demonstrated genuine interest and concern for my well-being.
The doctor was AMAZING! He took time to listen to my medical history (as this was a first time appointment) and ask questions. For the first time ever I didn't feel like a burden when I brought up past diagnosises I've had for other issues.
Dr Agrawal is the best doctor I have ever encountered. He took his time with me and listened to everything I had to say. He was actively working to try and figure out what was wrong with me and showed he truly cared. He had all of my relevant medical information that he needed and he had looked at it beforehand. I have been dealing with severe health issues for 4 years that we have not been able to figure out. During our visit I finally got some answers and confirmation that I was not dying. This was huge for me. The way he took his time and was able to articulate to me what was going on in a way I could understand was amazing and something I've never experienced before. Not once did I feel rushed or like he wanted me in and out so he could get to this next patient. It was also clear how competent and smart Dr. Agrawal was. That, matched with his patience and empathy is something I have never experienced before in my life from any doctors care I've been under. Dr. Agrawal, thank you for everything. Truly I am so grateful for your care. I have spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to figure out my issues and you finally gave me the closure I needed. I cannot thank you enough. You are truly the best and should be the standard other doctors should strive for.
Provided was knowledgeable of my issues.
He was the rudest doctor I've ever seen. I still had a few questions/concerns I wanted to discuss and he literally told me to stand up and showed me out the door. I thought he was taking me to another room for testing, instead he walked me to the checkout desk. He also did not explain my diagnosis. He couldn't get me out of the office fast enough. I've never written a bad review before. I left the building in tears. I felt so dismissed. I had waited 5 months for testing and to see him again. That's 5 months wasted.
He took time to listen and explain to me
Excellent
I really liked this doctor, he was caring and looked through my medical history extensively. He was also a lot smarter and had a lot more ideas than the rural doctors I typically see. Overall he restored a little of my faith in the medical field.
Dr. Agrawal is listens and is always informative and compassionate.
Excellent. Friendly. Listened.Made a treatment recommendation and the Dr to administer it.
He listened carefully.
Dr. Agrawal is ALWAYS absolutely amazing. He is always kind, caring, and provides the best care possible. He always makes sure that I have what I need.
Dr Agrawal is awesome
The neurologist was wonderful. I have seen two neurologist at a different health-care system. They performed perfunctory examinations, didn't monitor my 100% occluded right internal carotid artery, and told me that there was nothing they could do for me until I had "stroke-like symptoms" (i.e., a stroke). The OSU neurologist performed a much more thorough examination, during which he found previously undetected nerve damage. He ordered testing, including imaging of my carotid arteries. He explained the treatment protocol for blocked internal arteries to me, rather than telling me that they will provide treatment only if I have a stroke (I have already had two mini-strokes). The OSU neurologist showed concern for my welfare and he listened to me.
All Good
He took the time to thoroughly explain his diagnosis.
He was thorough and professional. Very positive interaction.
He had go e over my information and history before coming in. Was quite understanding and respectful, I have seen a number of professionals in the past months but Dr Agrawal was the only one who was able to diagnose the problem and outline treatment.
The doctor was very pleasant and his bedside manners were excellent
While previous visits have been good, during this one I felt that my feelings and experiences were disregarded and minimized. I will be seeking a new provider.
Attentive and supportive
The doctor is very warm and friendly; he always answers any questions I have.
He knew exactly was wrong with me after a discussion of my records, symptoms, and a physical exam. First time of gotten answers in 3 years.
I always look forward to my visits with Dr. Argawal. He's the most pleasant provider I work with and I see numerous providers for chronic health issues. He knows my case from visit to visit like he takes the time to read his notes and others notes before coming in so that we're not discussing my history but moving forward to new/different issues. He's straightforward in explaining my illness to me always allowing me time to ask questions without feeling rushed. This visit I was put on a complex medication regimen and he took his time explaining it to me and even gave me my notes for help if I have questions when I get home.
He listened to my concerns. He showed compassion. He accurately assessed where which muscles in my neck/shoulders needed treatment with Botox. He took his time in working with me.
The Dr showed complete interest in what was causing my health problem and ways to remedy it as well as monitor it in the future.
Care provider was kind and understanding
Always good experience !!
Knowledgeable.

Good
My provider was very thorough in his explaining and answering my questions. I did not feel rushed during the appointment. He provided me with valuable knowledge to move forward with.
He was excellent with me. I was a new patient appointment and he took all the time I needed. He never rushed or made you feel like he needed to see other patients. He listened to me and my family on the issues I'm having.
Detailed
All good, I don't believe I have ever had a provider that studied my records so throughly and knew my case so good.
Went over tilt test results and working on blood flow problem to my head
He is absolutely incredible - it's obvious that he cares about the patient and their overall health, not just the problem you came in to see him for.
Excellent provider. Always takes the time to answer my questions and appears genuinely interested in my concerns
Doctor was very good and easy to understand. I'm very happy that he was assigned to me.
Dr Agrawal is very kind, thorough, and explains things well. He always takes the individual patient under consideration when recommending a treatment plan. He listens to the me and completes a thorough exam at each appointment. He has helped me understand my diagnosis and improved my quality of life.
Very professional and easy explanation regarding my medical concerns. He set up further treatments with a follow up visit scheduled shortly after the treatment
This doctor could not be better. He clearly explained what was happening and what I should do.
Everything was just fine
Great listener. Definitely felt like he cared
Doctor was outstanding. He spent a lot of time in the room discussing my concerns. He actively listened, he was transparent and unlike any other doctor I've seen, he thought through the process, by talking to me about potential causes, what my symptoms could be stemming from and advising how we could narrow down the possibilities.
Excellent, very knowledgeable, professional, friendly courteous.
Waited only a few minutes for him to come into room. Spent a good amount of time with me. Thorough exam.
Good
Excellent with a CAPITAL " E"
Great professional treats. Spent ple.ty of te going over everything with me Definitely recommend
Dr. Agrawal always takes the time to understand how my stimulators are working & any issues I'm having related to the devices. He then works to determine optimum settings for my situation(s).
First a little short, but I needed to listen to him. To much information, I was afraid I'd forget.
He was very thorough testing me physically and caught something I forgot that has been problem for sometime now, it wasn't on my list of symptoms I had made prior to my visit.
Dr. Agrawal listened to my concerns about the difficulty swallowing I experienced after my lasr Botox injections. He was careful to alter the injection sites accordingly this time.
Very professional
Dr. Agrawal is always very patient and concerned about mmu comfort during the procedure.
The doctor was nice. He is obviously very knowledgeable. He did a thorough exam, and made a plan I understood. I didn't feel like he listened well.
Dr. Agrawal told me he didn't have time to hear all my symptoms and told me just pick my top two. I felt unheard and uncomfortable expressing my concerns. He also dismissed my symptoms as being caused by my weight and prescription medications.
Dr. Agrawal is the best!
He took time to explain what my condition entailed and spent an appropriate amount of time answering my questions. He also discussed treatment options.
Very good
I was absolutely shocked after this appointment. I don't think I have experienced a more knowledgeable doctor. His care for my condition, explanation, and care plan were all exceeding any expectations or hopes. I can't say enough of this provider.
I love Dr. Agrawal. He is literally the best. I would trust no one else with my care!
This doctor is a wonderful person and always Concerned with questions I have.
This doctor was amazing. He was very kind in helping me to understand what was happening.
He was straight to the point and did everything that my family doctors should have done
Everything was good
The best. Took time to talk about my progress and very thorough evaluating my progress.
I appreciate that he takes the time to listen to me, but I often can't hear what he says as he's very soft-spoken. Also seems nonchalant about changing up my medications, when in the past these changes have had big side effects.
He was very knowledgeable and empathetic
Dr Agrawal is very knowledgeable. He reviewed my records, asked numerous questions and listened to what I had to say and I felt at ease after my visit. If anyone Is going to help me get me on the right treatment plan I left feeling confident in him.
He was great. We communicated well. His people skills and knowledge was off the charts.
Very thorough, concerned, and pleasant
I loved how well he listened and I felt heard and understood which I don't always feel when seeing specialists. In definitely felt like a person and not just another number walking through the door.
All my experiences were good.
Very thorough unable to get immediate answers due to further investigation needed! Was left not knowing if he thinks I'm competent enough to go back to work or not!
Good, but I left not knowing any more than what I knew when I came there.
Excellent!
DR AGRAWAL HAS BEEN MY CARE GIVER SINCE 2007 HE DOES A GREAT JOB. I CAN NOT SAY THAT FOR ANOTHER DR. AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION. BUT I WILL NOT GET INTO THAT. IAM VERY LUCKEY TO HAVE DR AGRAWAL FOR A CAREGIVER
He was very knowledgeable and ask the right questions concerning my illnesse
I have seen him twice with my husband with me. Both occasions we agree that he is the most unpleasant and rude provider we have met at OSU. He roughly snatched my small list of questions from my hand and refused to give it back and called me a nervous nelly. We did not react. After he said what he wanted to say he stood up and left with no warning. It was awful. I cried all the way home.
Best experience possible.
I absolutely think this doctor is the bomb, which means he is great! He totally listened, and I believe he is the first one to hit the nail on the head after 30 years of dealing with a headache! He spent as much time as he needed to with me without ever seeming rushed. Very personable as well. Treated me with respect. I have abundance of symptoms because of comorbidities. But he sorted through them and totally figured out this headache. And he didn't disregard me as being too difficult as most doctors have. I have already been improving greatly in the last three months since his treatment Protocol started. Can't say more about him. Except for my husband even really likes him and my husband doesn't like any Dr.!
Dr. Agrawal is very polite and personable and made me feel very welcome.
Dr. Agrawal is the best neurologist I have had. He takes his time to identify the muscles that need to be targeted when giving me Botox. He really seems to care that I do well.
I really appreciate how much time Dr. Agrawal spent with me, and how well he explained everything. Never felt rushed at all.
Though I felt he did a good job overall, he didn't give the strongest impression of listening carefully. He seemed to come to a conclusion quickly, but that left me feeling that he didn't feel the need to listen to all of my concerns and symptoms after he had made his conclusion (which he did almost immediately.)
Always very kind. Very concerned about my discomfort during the procedure. Thorough and professional.
Very pleased Dr was able to diagnose my condition and provide RX for medication
Very concerned and knowledgeable
Very thorough with information about procedure. Compassionate and sympathetic to my issue.
Dr Argwall was great. Never in all my years with Neurologists have I had this type of conversation or question's asked.
Very good
Very well known of my illness and what needs to be done. Very very nice and pleasant.
The doctor is very attentive and listens to all my concerns.
I absolutely love my doctor,he takes his time and explains everything in detail.
Very good experience with this provider except couldn't hear very well
Dr. Agrawal was my Neurologist when he was at a previous clinic. I was overjoyed to have him as my doctor again. He always listens and take your thoughts and concerns Into account when making decisions. He remembered things from years ago and didn't even have access to all of his previous medical notes. I feel like I am going to receive the best care because he is on my team.
Great
Very professional, very knowledgeable.
Interrupted me, told me to stay neuro-symptom focused. I couldn't finish a question before he interrupted and finally told me without hearing my concerns fully that I "was wrong." I shut down completely- only to find out that my BP was in fact dangerously high. The physician had the staff call me to tell me to seek follow up care for my BP. Total disregard for patient well-being. I felt like I was being herded through the visit and dumped at the receptionist's desk to pay, pay, pay. So disappointing.
Very intelligent and well versed in every aspect of my health issues.
He was very pleased with my progress and concerned about any future issues.
Dr. Agrawal answered all my questions, listened to my questions and explained things so I understood. He explained parts of my medical record that I didn't know about.
Great visit. I was treated with care and dignity.
Good
Professional, courteous, knowledgeable. He was attentive and took copious notes, always informative, answers all my questions. Does physical and mental and neuro examination. Discusses medication, symptoms, expectations and treatment
All good, a great doctor
Dr.Agrawl is so pleasant and professional and has a way to put you at ease which makes it easier to communicate with him. Very gratifying to know I'm in good hands.
Dr. Agrawal was outstanding
Did not really take care of the issue I was there for. Only said that I definitely had a health problem but he didn't know what it was. Just kind of left me hanging with rapidly declining health.
He was knowledgeable and professional
Provider was very informative regarding my problem. I had been referred for consultation from my family doctor. Spent adequate time with me and did thorough exam as well as taking note of all my symptoms and concerns
Dr. Patel is one of the most kind and compassionate doctors I have seen during decades of dealing with headaches and migraines.
He was very thorough. He explained things well.
He was a little rough on doing the reflexes on my arm,it hurt and I had a bruise on my arm the next day
Excellent. My first experience with him and he went over more detail with my condition and medication than anyone I have ever seen and explained why. Very thorough.
My provider is very nice and listens to any questions I have.
Dr. Punit is very nice and listens. He handles my sarcasm and joking about my symptoms very well.
This was a 6 month f/u visit with Dr. Argarwal both visits he was very thorough, listened to my concerns and didn't make me feel rushed.
