Dr. Laskar is excellent! He listened to us as a family, engaged , and he shows he cares. He's straight forward, provides the facts/findings, explains so you understand, and gives you the reality with hopefulness. Mannerism is superior

Dr. Laskar listened to my concerns and was able to give me clear explanations. Many doctors talk down to patients and what they say goes, which states they aren't listening to the patient. When this happens to me, I don't return. Dr. Laskar is a great doctor with excellent bedside manners!!

This is my fourth year in Dr. Laskar's care. I caused some friction in the beginning but now we are working very wrell together. Thanks to Drs. Westerman and Laskar I have made a huge recovery from my heart failure

I was able to ask questions and provide information without feeling rushed or unwanted. They helped me make decisions and were very generous with explanations. For example, I had to make a difficult decision about my mother's defibrillator and the doctor answered all of my questions, explained things clearly and made sure I had all of the information and his opinion. I feel fortunate that this doctor is my mother's doctor.
