Michael A. Eslava, M.D.

He took the time to explain all my options and made sure I understood. I was treated professionally and in a friendly courteous manner. I would certainly recommend him if you are having knee problems.

Goofy pic. I know his birthday is coming up. Maybe he will hit puberty soon.

He is very thorough

Confident and has a temporary solution to my problem. I waited an hour but it could be that I was a new patient as others came after me but got called in before me.

Gave clear explanations and laid out all the options. No pressure. Very professional and personable.

Knowledgeable, Caring and Friendly He immediately diagnosed the problem and set up a course of treatment to fix it. Highly recommend this doctor.

Outstanding

He’s awesome.

Knowledgeable, professional, and to the point. Personable and friendly. Did not have to wait long.

Always discusses your options. When you get down to the last one - total knee replacement, he is very supportive and explains the procedure.

performed in a professional way. Answered all questions so we could understand the answers.

friendly, clear explanations, knowlegeable

Very professional. No beating around the bush. I like that

Excellent Physician, personable as well.

I really liked Dr. Eslava, but I was appalled that the office is not requiring patients to wear face coverings. For this reason, I will not be back.

He always does a great job he has great bed side manners. He is a great asset to your firm

Always friendly, always efficient and always no nonsense with courtesy. Great guy, great Doctor and great friend. I'll be back!

Dr. Eslava is one of the best medical professionals that I have ever used. He cares. He seeks all solutions before recommending surgery. I highly recommend him.

Dr Eslava was prompt and helpful

Dr. Eslava is always ready to help me with my pain and my bone problem. He helps the whole family and we trust him . Great Dr. I would recommend him and his work

Its disrespectful to older patients to call them by anything other than their name.

Dr. Eslava is an excellent doctor. He puts you at ease and listens to what you are telling him. He has a good sense of humor.

Took great care of me!!

Didn't have to wait long and the visit was efficient. Always a pleasant experience.

Amazing

Actually I would be rate it a10

Dr. Eslava is the doctor everyone would like to have. He knows his craft , fully explains options, answers all questions and is a pleasure to work with. He is confident but not arrogant. I trust him completely and feel fortunate to have him as my doctor.

Long wait, short visit

Very knowledgeable and thorough. Funny when he needs to be and serious when that is needed. The wait for the appointment can be frustrating but that doesn't detract from him..

Dr. E has operated on my right shoulder to give me 100% relief. He put a plate and 8 screws in my ankle a few years ago after a bad break. No problems!

Makes me confident

Doesn't take the time to communicate with the patient.

Very pleased with the care I receive at your office, Dr Esalva is very professional.

Explains things well

Always pleasant and I feel like he is on target with his care. Listens!

The Dr. and staff are excellent .!!

Friendlly, Knowledgeable, Professional.

The doctor is excellent the only reason I gave 3 stars instead of 5 is I waited over an hour past my appointment time to even been brought into a room and the receptionist had the attitude that it was no big deal and then I sat in the room for another half hour before I was seen by the doctor. To me it totally unacceptable it's like they have no concern of their patients time and that they may have other things to do besides sitting in a doctor's office all day over booking appointments

Thank you I will let everyone know awesome doctor

Has done a very good job for me and my wife

I have had a good relationship with Dr. Eslava in the past. At my recent visit I feel like he did not give me more options than treating my symptoms while I would like more input to a plan going forward. Shot for pain, script for meds.

He explained my situation in laymen's terms, and provided me with options for surgery. Had a hip X-ray done right there, so he knew exactly what needed to be done. Enjoyed his kind nature.
