“Dr. Lashkari has an incredible experience, impeccable credentials and, most important, a heart. My hemoglobin level is normal now thanks to him as he helped me with my severe iron deficiency anemia and chose the right treatment for me. There is not another doctor more qualified or more caring, I recommend him highly. ”

“At first, we were a little afraid to meet Dr. Lashkari as my father was suffering from stage 3 cancer colon but then we realized that he is an excellent oncologist. He listens to his patients and their families and always seems to have all the time in the world for you. He saved my father and I will forever be grateful for that!”

“I was sent to Dr. Lashkari after undergoing my stage 3 colon cancer surgery. At the time I was really worried about the chemo treatment because I am 90 but I decide to try the oral chemo and hopefully I experience very few side effects. Dr. Lashkari has been great to me and my family and we are grateful for his expertise and kindness. ”

“I don’t usually bother to write reviews but Dr. Lashkari deserves it. For me, the most important aspect is not the wait time or how clean the office is (which is very clean, btw). It is the level of trust and care. I fully trust Dr. Lashkari and I feel that he really cares about his patients and this is the most important thing to me. ”

“After pregnancy, my fiancé developed an ugly tumor and Dr. Lashkari did his best to save her life. He immediately formed a team of specialists to find the best treatment plan. Unfortunately, my fiancé had more than 4 tumors in various areas of the body. Dr. Lashkari managed to destroy all but one, which was located in her brain and which killed her eventually. He is a great doctor. ”
