in Liver Cancer #1

I have metastatic pancreatic cancer which has spread to my liver. I have numerous small lesions throughout. Had Whipple surgery 12/24 and cancer was removed from my pancreas. Been through 2 grueling chemo rounds before the surgery and they want to have me do chemo again. Can some one suggest an excellent hospital for liver cancer so I can get a second opinion?

    Hello, sorry for your disease.

    1. I don’t live in the US but I considered visiting Memorial Sloan Kettering cancer center in New York to get a second opinion. It’s listed as the second best cancer center in the world by Newsweek. I am not a person who takes such lists serious but my visit to their website left me impressed.
    2. There’s also the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston on the same list.
    3. You can also visit hospitals that are part of Mayo Clinic Care Network who are being medically audited by Mayo Clinic. There are several hospitals across the eastern board, see them below:
