Dr. Dardashti is truly the most compassionate, caring physician I have ever dealt with. As soon as he notice that my husband and I were wearing masks he went out to get one for himself. (My internist she did not bother with a mask at a recent visit.) Because I am a cancer patient with little Immune function Dr. Dardashti understood my reluctance to go to a busy PT venue for physical therapy. He offered useful suggestions for my physical therapy routine at home. I feel very fortunate to be a patient of Dr. Dardashti. I am confident he will take the best possible care of me.
