I am seen at MSKCC and am very happy with my care. I am seeing oncologist David Kelsen MD, who has an interest in BRCA related pancreatic cancers. I have the BRCA gene. Dr. Kelsen is a wonderful doctor as well as being an outstanding scientist. I saw Dr. William Jarnigan. I have "borderline resect able" cancer but have responded to chemo and may still be a candidate for surgery. I had a biliary stent placed at MSKCC. My initial was at my local hospital. There was just no comparison. I find that staff are very understanding and respectful. It is difficult to travel, takes me two hours, but it seems well worth it for the excellent care
