You should use Dr. Eskandari as a template for how to treat a patient. he shows empathy, he is a great listener and takes his time to explain things at your level, not his. He is an all-around great guy with a wonderful sense of humor as well!!!!!!

Dr. Eskandari has an attribute we seldom see in doctors today. He listens. He had already gone over the barrage of tests I had sent to his office and was prepared coming into the appointment. He didn't start the appointment by telling me what he'd seen but instead said, "So tell me about yourself." I jokingly said, "Where do you want me to start?" He put my mind at easy and addressed the issue in a manner that calmed me. I'm very happy I was referred to him.
