Compassionate Care
Self-verified patient of Dr. Vivek Agnihotri - Posted on August 13th, 2018
Dr. Agnihotri is compassionate, caring, and a great listener. Every appointment he takes the time to answer any questions I have related to my illness/treatment, discuss potential alternatives as well as adjunct therapies, and listen to my concerns/thoughts related to current therapy. He helped improve my life in ways that cannot be quantified. I highly recommend him and there is no price too high for me to continue seeking his help.

Compassionate and informed

Dr. Agnihotri is invested in your health. He shows concern for your entire well being and is motivated to help you find the right solutions. Although he does not accept insurance, his care has been invaluable and well worth paying out of pocket. (His office will print out a superbill for you if you want to submit it yourself for reimbursement.) This takes the focus off of bureaucracy and puts it back onto patient care. I have been impressed by his willingness to come up with a plan that I am comfortable with. Many doctors will simply tell you what to do and expect you to comply with no discussion. I would recommend Dr. Agnihotri to anyone struggling with anxiety, adult ADHD/ADD or addiction.
