I don't have personal experience, but Google was showing me their ads so I researched a bit. My conclusion was that they're quacks out to make money off desperate people.

@val64 Thank you for research. I will pass this information on to my friend. He is in some state of desperation.

If they are in Arizona, they should consider a Dr at Honor Health, Dr Borancanzi. He is out for a bit, but I am sure he has a partner. Very well known in the pancreatic cancer community. I try to see him when I am at a treatment crossroads. Also, I have been told of Dr Sharma there . I am in atlanta and fly there!

You should also consider Mayo Scottsdale. A recent review of their pancreatic oncologists and surgeons revealed several highly qualified and capable doctors.

@demooretucson Just to clarify, that would be Mayo Phoenix. That is where I get treated. Scottsdale doesn't have the pancreatic oncologists and surgeons.

My understanding is that Envita sells hope. Nothing more.

City of Hope in Goodyear, AZ (just outside of Phoenix). Dr. Singh is an expert surgeon in pancreatic cancer. I believe he saved me! I am now back home in Oregon doing GemCap. My next test will show what kind of progress I'm making...
