Patient Reviews
Mar 23, 2025
Dr. Esselen performed my surgery and I have recovered very fast. She is one of the most caring, patient, empathetic medical professionals I have ever met. She is knowledgeable, decisive and thorough while being respectful, and that behavior maps onto the rest of her team. I feel lucky to have her as my doctor and feel even more motivated to get through all next steps in beating my illness — my team rocks. Thank you Dr. Esselen.
