Firstly, I would like to say thank you to Dr. Isharwal and his team! I feel very fortunate to have been recommended to OHSU for a second opinion and selected by Dr. Isharwal. Meeting him for the first time, I felt comfortable in what we discussed regarding my diagnosis and treatment. I am extremely grateful for Dr Isharwal's dedication, expertise, professionalism and surgical skills especially regarding robotic surgery.
Dr. Isharwal answered all my questions concisely and offered encouraging words that I had made it the full two years of treatment.

The doctor and the assistant were both perfect. Kind and extremely helpful. I had a biopsy and it was MUCH easier than I expected. I could not ask for anything better
Doctor kept me waiting about 40 minutes. Visit felt extremely rushed. Actual discussion of the surgery was not nearly as thorough as depicted in the clinical note.
Doctor was very personable and kind. Answered questions and was very knowledgeable. I wish I would have consulted with him a year ago before I had a Urolift. Really appreciated getting to meet him for a second opinion.
