I saw Dr. Essell in Dec. 2020 for my six month checkup. I have been in remission for Lymphoma for 6 years now. Dr Essell is a very caring Doctor. He told me my blood test came back good and saw no signs of the Lymphoma returning any time soon. He is an excellent Doctor and I thank him for saving my life!

I am a retired nurse and was careful to pick an oncologist who not only was knowledgeable about current treatments for my leukemia but also compassionate. He is a doctor that consistently listens to me and never rushes through the visit. Dr. Essell takes time to answer all of my questions about new research or existing treatments. I get a timely response when I have had issues between scheduled appointments. I feel fortunate to have him as my oncologist.

Dr. Essell is a great physician and hematologist/oncologist. His knowledge is outstanding, and I being a pediatric hematologist/oncologist have ability to evaluate his care and recommendations he provides me. I would recommend him to be the best in his field in Cincinnati.

One of the most competent and knowledgeable Doctors I have ever known, and I have known quite a few in my 79 years. Dr. Essell is the "Real Deal" He listens and advises after careful consideration of all the facts. I value his opinion, and that of his experienced staff, especially Maria.

Overall, it was a great visit as always! These visits are always difficult when you know it's time for an appt. however Dr. Essell makes it easy and it's always nice to see him. He has taken care of me for years and I completely trust him. He cares about his patients and works tirelessly to insure a favorable outcome if at all possible. He is an expert in his field and I have on occasion recommended him to others in need. Of course no one wants to be in this situation but if you are, let's just say I am very glad he is on my team!
