Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most challenging diseases, with a five-year survival rate of just 13%. In 2025, an estimated 67,440 Americans will be diagnosed, and over 51,980 will lose their lives to this illness.

Despite being the 10th most commonly diagnosed cancer, it is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the U.S., projected to become the second by 2030.

Our Philosophy About Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic cancer is a serious disease. Taking an aggressive rational stance at the earliest possible time, supported by the best medical team, and treated in the most appropriate manner gives the best chance for survival.

We believe in strong patient-physician bonds, scientifically-based treatment, and that comfort can come from knowing that everything that reasonably can be done – is being done.

That the best approach is meeting cancer of the pancreas head-on and armed with the best available information.
