5.0 star star star star starDr Eskandari came in promptly. He sat at eye level and listened to my concerns. He asked me questions and made me feel more comfortable by his warmth and education he gave me. He addressed some mis information I had previously received. He assured me a test would be done. I felt Dr Mark understood me and my priorities. He spent the right amount of time with me. A huge factor in making me feel cared for was when Dr Mark said "we will make the decision together". I keep hearing this in my head and my anxiety has gone down. He is wonderful.

5.0 star star star star starDr E listens to how I'm expressing myself when I describe my medical situation. His responses match my level of understanding and/or comprehension. I never feel overwhelmed with information or spoken down to. I leave an office visit with a clear understanding of my condition and what my next course of action should be.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Eskandari is very experienced and patient caring surgeon. He takes the time to explain his recommendations and is very calm. He is exactly the surgeon you want to have when you have to undergo complex vascular surgery. I wouldn't go to anybody else.

5.0 star star star star starI am so very grateful that the Physicians at Northwestern in McHenry referred me to Dr. Eskandari to do the surgery on my carotid artery which had a 90 percent blockage. This Physician is meticulous , very kind and caring and a wonderful surgeon. I would recommend his services to anyone lucky enough to have him.

5.0 star star star star starI think more Doctors should be like him and if I recommended anyone to him I think he would impress them the same way he has impressed me. Most of all, the stent that he put in 5 years ago is still going strong.
