      Dr Jason Luke and Dr Tom Gajewski at university of Chicago are both leading melanoma Dr’s. I have not met Gewjeski but I know he is very highly recommended. My Dr is Luke…he is excellent and involved in many trials and at the leading edge on new treatments.

        I believe Dr Richards is involved in the pembro vs placebo trial for stage 3 patients also. If you get a opinion from him that might be something worth asking about.

      Dr. Luke seems outstanding.  Whether you choose him or not I highly recommend you watch this recent video by him.

      My husband has been seeing Dr. Luke at the U of C since he came to medical center in November, 2014.  He is an excellent melanoma specialtist and like others have stated, he is involved in many trials.   I highly recommend him.
