Patient Reviews
Feb 14, 2024
Dr. Askew is one of a few doctors in the area who listens and explains in detail about medical conditions, procedures, and expectations properly. He also took the time to explain all the options available in my case. I did not feel rushed, and his attitude was not dismissive. I will say that besides that, he is a decent human being.
