Hello, sophiarose! I have pancreatic NET with liver metastases. My oncologist suggested Ga68 dotatate PET scan which guided him through my surgery. I live in Syracuse, NY and it is available here! Dr.Dhir who did my surgery has become the first doctor (And Upstate Cancer Center) to offer robotic Wipple procedure! Check Syracuse, it could be easier to come here than do JAX?

Hello @sophiarose,

I am so glad to hear that you were able to meet Dr. Starr. If you have previously seen Dr. Starr, his office staff might be able to answer that question for you.

Will you post again and let me know how you are doing and what decision you make regarding the PRRT treatment?
