Dr. Agarwal has a strong commitment to his profession and the public. He is an active member of seven dental organizations and routinely provides dental care to underserved populations in Chicago.
About eight years ago, office manager Marilyn Walsh handed Dr. Agarwal an article about The Family Health Society in Chicago Heights that provided dental care to those less fortunate. The article mentioned the need for an office to continue providing dental service to the working poor, underinsured, and uninsured. After reading the article, Dr. Agarwal immediately called the Family Health Society offering to donate his office and fully equipped practice for their needs. That changed his life and, subsequently, the lives of more than 700 low-income and uninsured families annually.
The official opening of the Agarwal Family Health Society Dental Clinic took place April 26, 2001. With a staff of four paid employees and 79 volunteers, the society continues to help south suburban residents to this day. | |
