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.

Awful doctor
If you want to feel like you’re not important this is the doctor for you. Would not renew rx that I have been on for months (was not a pain med). Very unprofessional!

Poor assessment , refused to order C X-ray, or EKG
I saw this MD for an assessment a week following a car accident that left me with moderate chest and back pain. She refused to order a chest x-ray with pain on a scale of 4 to 7 and also refused to do an EKG. She refused to give me anything for pain stating that 'if you have pain in a week I'll give you pain med'. She said on my Chart that I had no edema, however I was wearing long jeans and socks and she never looked at my ankles or my feet. Her lung sounds were done in 6 points, 3 on each lung without asking me to deep breath and it didn't take 10 seconds. I am a retired medical professional. This Primary Care Physician is not someone I would feel confident or trust with my medical care.

I was refused a pap smear, she said I don't need one. Also said oh, when she found out I am not married at 33. What relevance does that have to healthcare? I felt very uncomfortable and judged. I had a great NP before who was no longer treating my patient age group. When I expressed I was sad she left, she was very cold and dismissive.

Go to more competent doctor
Very bad experience. I was misdiagnosed multiple times and she showed very little interest when health issues became complicated and out of her realm. I did cry once at one of our appointments.She said that I shouldn’t be crying and maybe I should go see a psychiatrist. I cried after hearing bad news. I tried very hard to work with her and took a lot before calling it quits. Not worth it.

Consistently disappointed by this "doctor". First appointment she came strolling in yawning and spilling a mug of coffee everywhere. I felt like she was bored listening to my concerns and at one point asked if I had any other complaints in a way that was so cold and dismissive. Another appointment I had to get a shot and she forgot to tell the nurse so I sat there for 30 minutes until I went and found a nurse. At my last appointment, she starts walking out before even asking me if I had any concerns. I stopped her to ask her about a concern, she asked me to show her, I did and she totally dismissed it as nothing while practically half way out the door holding her computer. She really just does not care about her patients health. Thankfully she is leaving Signature Healthcare.

I have never encountered a less caring doctor in my life. Her response to nearly all of my medical problems, particularly weight gain, fatigue, and worsening back pain, is that I need to “lose weight” or is just brushed off as me exaggerating my symptoms. Not ONCE has she remembered any previous medical complaints, or my medical history. Seems like she should have noticed. Even when I told her that I have gained weight with no rhyme or reason, she said I need to get a fit bit. Her “exam” of my back consisted of a phone call and telling me to go to physical therapy despite the fact that this pain has turned into weakness and numbness and I can no longer drive as a result. Not sure how she expects me to go to physical therapy if I can barely walk in my own house. While that is bad enough, she failed to disclose a terminal diagnosis. I saw it added as a new diagnosis in a bloody app provided by that hospital group.

She should have her license revoked. Too bad Dr Florio is no longer practicing. He was very patient and took all the time needed at every appointment. He was very caring which is what Aggerwal is not.

I have been seeing Dr. Aggarwal for 6+ years to treat and care for diabetes, other health issues. Dr. Aggarwal has been caring, concerned, and has always had my best medical interest top of mind. She keeps up on the latest medical literature, studies, and clinical practices . I have recommended her to multiple friends who have needed a new PCP

This is the worst Dr. in Massachusetts. Rude, invasive, unconcerned with patients health in truth, but more concerned with making as much money of you as possible. DO NOT schedule appointments with this woman; hundreds of better options available in the area.

I had to find a new doctor as my old doctor did not take my new insurance. I am so happy with this change. She spends time with me. On my first visit she asked me my history in detail. Her advice has always been correct and concise when I have seen her subsequently.

I saw her yesterday for a physical. She came in carrying a cup of coffee (tea?) which I don’t consider professional. She doesn’t listen. She knew none of my medical history and didn’t seem to want to hear it. I had talked to the nurse before meeting her but it seemed nothing was communicated to her. I asked why I don’t get a Pap smear-she told me I would die of something else first. Many of my answers had to be repeated. I found her cold, argumentative and bored. I would never recommend her.
