Helping You Get Back to What Moves You
“I was referred to Dr. Eskew by a former patient who had an incredibly successful surgery and recovery under his care. After years of pain and seeing multiple specialists, I expected another conversation about procedures or surgery. Instead, Dr. Eskew took the time to listen, carefully review my situation, and told me he believed I could get better without surgery. That spoke volumes to me. He wasn’t focused on pushing a procedure. He was focused on what was best for me. I felt heard, valued, and genuinely cared for, not like another number on the schedule. That kind of honesty and intentionality is rare, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dr. Eskew.”

Overhead Athlete Expertise
The overhead motion, whether it's a fastball, a serve, or a golf swing, puts a level of stress on the shoulder and elbow that few surgeons fully understand. If you're a thrower, you already know a generic diagnosis isn't good enough. You need someone who knows the difference between an injury that needs rest and one that needs surgery, and who won't guess.
Dr. Eskew has cared for professional throwing athletes as a team physician for the New York Mets, and he brings that same level of scrutiny to every overhead athlete he treats, from youth pitchers to weekend golfers. His focus includes UCL reconstruction, shoulder instability, shoulder replacements, and complex or revision cases.
You'll get an accurate diagnosis, a clear explanation of your options, and a treatment plan built around getting you back to your sport, not just back to normal life.
“I am deeply committed to engaging and building positive, meaningful relationships with my patients. Only by knowing them can I truly help them.” - Dr. Eskew
