Medically, Dr. Aggarwal diagnosed a critical issue that had caused hospitalization, one missed by every other doctor prior to hospitalization and during hospitalization. Which caused transfer from another clinic to one where he works. Personally, Dr. Aggarwal is a very caring doctor.

Dr. Aggarwal caught an issue the prior nephrologist didnâ€™t, and is the reason for me switchingg nephrologist and Clinic. His concern comes through. He cares about his end-stage patients; he doesnâ€™t treat them as people who are going to disappear in a relatively short period of time.

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
