A new national designation from the National Pancreas Foundation means pancreatic cancer patients at The James can count on extraordinary, above-and-beyond treatment and care. The NPF, a world-recognized organization dedicated to providing hope and help for pancreatic cancer patients, awards the official NPF Center designation only to those institutions demonstrating an outstanding treatment approach by bringing together highly specialized experts from multiple different medical disciplines – from gastroenterology to surgical oncology, medical oncology to dietetics, and more – for the sole purpose of creating a personalized treatment plan for each patient.
