WELCOME

Pancreatic cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death in the United States and world. The most important thing you can do if you fear you have pancreatic cancer is to seek a medical diagnosis. If you have been diagnosed the pancreatic cancer, immediate treatment is critical. It may seem a cliche, but days canmatter. Currently, the best treatment option for pancreatic cancer is what is known as the "Whipple" procedure (after the Dr. who developed it) where the pancreas and some surrounding area is removed, however, this is only effective before the cancer has metastized (spread) therefore, it is important to determine your options as quickly as possible.
