I have been a patient of Dr. Esau's since 1999 and have never had such a thorough, knowledgeable, caring physician.He is smart, straight-forward and treats you as family. He does not just give prescriptions for medical conditions but treats the whole person. I am so grateful to have chosen him when we first moved here, could not have chosen better.

Dr. Esau takes the time to talk to his patients. That is rare today. He asks questions and he listens. He offers many services in house that others do not. He is down to earth and great at what he does. I am so lucky to have such a great doctor.

Dr. Esau is caring, professional and balanced. He is interested in the whole person and not just a "case." He does a great job of listening to the patient and considering individual needs. Highly recommend him.

Do not go to this clinic if you're over 65. Even if you're still working and have good medical insurance they get it in there head that you're on Medicare and refuse to see you. Won't even listen to insurance provider. Office staff are a bunch or robots following a script with no ability to reason.

Dr. Esau has been our family physician for years. You might have to wait a little longer than usual in the waiting room, but the wait is well worth it. He makes you feel like you are his only patient. He is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and has an excellent bedside manner. The only downside is his business office. They have no clue what they are doing and will send you to collections before you even know what you are being billed for.
