6/14/13 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 5 | Dr. Eskew fixed something that no other doctor knew there was a solution for. He was informed, communicative, and extremely effective. On the cutting edge medically but old school personally- the best combination. | |

Dr Eskew has been seeing my 12 year old daughter since she was born with a Cleft ip and Palate. She has had 9 pairs of tubes, and numerous surgeries that he has been a part of. He is the only physician on her laundry list of Dr's that I can honestly say I trust more than anything in the world. He has done amazing work on her, and continues to have the best, most caring attitude with her every time he see's her. He remembers things about her care w/o even looking in her chart and has ALWAYS provied the most amazing care for her. We were blessed with this wonderful Dr and have always felt this way about him. He does have a wait time in the waiting room but when you are the patient he is taking an hour with you forget how long you waited!

5/5/11 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 5 | After my ex-boyfriends dog ripped my ear from my skull Dr. Eskew stitched it back in place. I could not have asked for a better doctor and my ear is healing nicely after receiving 27 stitches. I also love his sense of humor =) | Respond |

1/1/07 | 4 | 2 | 1 | I had heard these great things about Dr. Eskew, but his attitude was too superior for me. He also still looks at vocal cords with a mirror instead of using the modern scope. He completely misdiagnosed my vocal cord issue (treating me for acid reflux with increasing meds for three months) without caring that it wasn't working. I eventually found a specialist in San Antonio that knew I had spasmodic dysphonia. It is rare, but Dr. Eskew didn't seem to want to look any further than his first diagnosis and didn't listen when I said "nothing is improving." | Respond | |

Dr. Eskew is the only ENT in Austin who knows about sinus problems. He is friendly, respectful and prompt. He helped me when countless other Doctors failed. I would never consider another ENT M.D. Austin is fortunate to have him and I appreciate his knowledge more than he will ever realize.
