Patient Stories
Pancreatic cancer is a tough disease to fight and oftentimes patients are diagnosed in late stages of the disease – making successful treatment more difficult to accomplish. We fight pancreatic cancer as a team, giving you the best hope for recovery.
Our pancreatic surgery team are pioneers in surgical techniques and we were the first in Michigan to use NanoKnife, a pioneering technology used to destroy inoperable pancreatic tumors.
Our Heroes

The morning after Harry received his pancreatic cancer diagnosis, he woke up determined to beat it — and determined to live to walk his two daughters down the aisle one day. Now he’s sharing what gave him strength to keep going during treatment to offer hope to others.
Jack's story
After treatment that included world-first MRI-guided radiation therapy, coupled with chemotherapy, Jack’s pancreatic cancer is now in remission.
Scott's story
