    How was your appointment with Dr. Askew Jr?

    Sep 27, 2019
    Dr. Askew performed a hernia repair on me. My experience before, during and after the procedure was excellent. He took the time beforehand to explain in detail the procedure and recovery, and the repair and subsequent recovery went exactly as anticipated. Dr. Askew's professionalism, skill and compassion made the experience much less stressful than it could have been.
