Pancreatic Cancer Q&A with Dr. Stauffer, Mayo Surgeon: May 29

Allow me to introduce you to Dr. John Stauffer, a hepatobiliary and pancreas surgical oncologist at Mayo Clinic in Florida, one of the country's highest-volume surgical programs for advanced pancreatic cancer.

On Thursday, May 29 from 1:30-2:30pm ET, Dr. Stauffer will host a Q&A about surgical management of pancreatic cancer.

After a pancreatic cancer diagnosis, many people have questions about treatment options, including surgical and nonsurgical approaches. You may also want to know how an integrated team – including surgical oncology, medical oncology, radiation oncology and gastroenterology specialists – works together to prevent further cancer complications and preserve your quality of life.

Please note that this hour-long Q&A is for informational purposes only, and any concerns you have should be addressed to your treating physician. If you would like to learn about pancreas cancer care at our integrated program in Florida, please visit this page for information.

My cancer is the ductal type of adenocarcinoma. Took a while to find it listed with my AON (American Oncology Network) nurse mentor searching my old lab findings. We just had our monthly interview yesterday. She is really helpful when I have questions, need refills or need to talk about my physical or mental health being affected by the chemo.
