He has particular expertise in cardiac imaging, including transthoracic and stress echocardiography, transoesophageal echocardiography and cardiac CT. His subspecialty interest lies in valvular heart disease and imaging-guided decision-making in complex cases. Alongside this, he continues to manage the full range of common cardiovascular conditions encountered in everyday practice, ensuring balanced and pragmatic care tailored to each patient.
Dr Eskandari remains actively involved in clinical research and education in cardiovascular imaging and structural heart disease. He places strong emphasis on clear communication and close collaboration with referring practitioners, supporting continuity of care and timely, clinically focused correspondence.
In January 2026, Dr Eskandari commenced a part-time Consultant Cardiologist appointment at Austin Health in Melbourne, contributing to tertiary-level cardiovascular services while continuing his commitment to high-quality private cardiology care.
