Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

He is a very caring and knowledgeable Dr.
He was very caring on my issues. I would recommend him to family and friends. Truly cares about patient. If you don't understand what he's saying he will break it down so you know exactly what to expect.

Quick and thorough
Dr. Eskandar is thorough with treatment. You leave knowing he cares and is doing what he can to help you. I always leave his office feeling like I was seen by someone who cares about my treatment and what’s best for me. He has pretty much saved my life and I am thankful for him.

Dr. Eskandar is a great doctor to have on our team
Dr. Eskandar is thorough and makes things easier to understand. Visits with him are quick, but informative. He has his patients best interest at heart.I recommend him to anyone looking for a nephrologist that treats their patients with respect and dignity, and not just another number. This means a lot especially when dealing with something as serious as kidney disease.
