Testimonials from patients of Dr. Lashkari
With all that medical professionals have to do right now, it was heartwarming for us to get an email from Dr. Lashkari to check on our well-being, and then to continue with an email exchange. We are new to this practice and feel so cared for. He has resolved issues, taken tests no other doctor thought to take, and he has shown interest and attentiveness beyond anything that we have ever… See more
Dr. Lashkari was referred to us by a dear family friend that had been his patient for years. Because my mother had dual coverage, resulting in no additional out of pocket expenses, I refused to commit to the expense of a concierge physician service. As my aging mother's medical needs increased it became increasingly more difficult to manage her care, so I finally caved and signed up with… See more
Dr. Lashkari has been my primary care physician for many years. Over this time he not only brought all my health markers into optimum range, he has gone way above and beyond as a consummate physician on several occasions. The most distressing situation arose when my wife and I arrived in Portugal on the same day that I started to experience terrible gastric distress, fever and malaise. Even… See more

Dr Lashkari is always there when needed with listening well and applying his knowledge for recommendations. He has called me from out of town just to tell me test results. I can call anytime knowing he will respond. He treats seniors with the same diligence he treats the young. He has become a very important and trusted part of my life.
When my doctor of many years moved I was devastated. I felt abandoned and scared as I was getting older and had some issues. I felt that it was time to find someone that I could relate to.

It took a little while for each of us to get to know what we both wanted from each other, but once we got on the same page I couldn't… See more

A number of years ago I was referred to Dr. Lashakari by a well regarded nurse who, at the time, was working for one of the nations top Oncologists. It was the greatest gift and remains one that I am forever grateful for, because Dr. Lashkari epitomizes what great medicine is and sadly isn't often found in healthcare anymore. He is smart, experienced, thoughtful, kind, considerate, well… See more
