I have known Dr. Esche since our days training in dermatology at Johns Hopkins. He is a physician-scientist who is capable of translating intensive research and knowledge of the skin to patient care in the clinic with facility. Not only does he excel in scientific contributions, he is also a wonderfully genuine and compassionate friend and colleague. The field of dermatology is fortunate to count Dr. Esche as one of its members!
As Chief of Staff at PMC, I always received great reviews from fellow physicians and patients about Dr. Esche, while he was practicing in the Pocono area.
I am writing in the strongest support of Dr. Esche for the Doctors Choice Award. Dr. Esche’s commitment to patient-centered care and his level of professionalism are more than deserving of accolades. He is clearly the most compassionate and caring dermatologist I have worked with. Dr. Esche’s reviews by his patients are exemplary.
Dr. Esche is an extremely well rounded colleague with diverse interests in clinical dermatology and in dermatological research. I have had the opportunity to supervise Dr. Esche from 1996 to 2001 and also to serve as a mentor for him until today. Dr. Esche joined my research laboratory in 1996. His most important observation is the ability of essentially every murine and human tumors, including melanoma and lymphoma, to induce premature programmed death of immune dendritic cells. Dr. Esche has also demonstrated that activation of dendritic cell precursors in mice using recombinant human flt3 ligand results in heightened antitumor immunity and inhibition of melanoma and lymphoma progression. The results have been translated in a phase II study of flt3 ligand in metastatic melanoma patients. On a personal level, Dr. Esche has also been consistently outstanding. The postdoctoral fellows who were his seniors at the time he joined us were only too happy to find out that Clemens had been assigned to us. Dr. Esche’s personality makes him a leader to his peers, while, at the same time, making them feel comfortable and desirous of emulating him. In summary, Dr. Esche has independently and very successfully pursued a line of investigation into immune cells beginning well before the current vogue in the biology of specific cell populations in the tumor microenvironment. Dr. Esche’s performance in every single category since joining my laboratory has been no less than outstanding and continues to surprise me until today.
I am a primary care physician in the Pocono area where Dr Esche was in practice for several years. Over that time, he saw many of my patients including my wife. The care and treatment were superb. We miss him here.

I am sure you will agree that those of us who are asked to write many recommendations can sometimes find the task quite tedious and even boring. However, when one is asked to write about a truly deserving colleague, the task becomes almost pleasurable. Such is the case now when I write to you on behalf of Dr. Esche. He is simply DA-DERMATOLOGIC-BOMB. Dr. Esche provides the very best in comprehensive dermatological care. My own experience was fabulous. I know of someone who flies in from Europe to see Dr. Esche.
