Most of our patients receive minimally invasive treatments, which minimizes post-procedure pain, length of hospitalization, and recovery times.
Unlike traditional “open” surgery, minimally invasive procedures — such as laparoscopy and robotic surgery — use small incisions, which makes surgery less painful and improves patient outcomes.
Weill Cornell Medicine’s world-class specialists are at the forefront of minimally invasive surgery and treatment and are experts in providing personalized treatment for both cancerous and noncancerous conditions, including pancreatic cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, solid pseudopapillary tumors, pancreatitis, pancreatic stones, pancreatic cysts, necrosis, and pseudocysts.
The Weill Cornell Pancreas Program includes specialists in surgery, advanced endoscopy, medical oncology, radiation oncology, pain management, nutrition, radiology, and pathology, all working together alongside nurse practitioners, patient navigators, and other medical and support professionals to deliver seamless, comprehensive care.
Our collaborative approach is designed to rapidly get you the care you need, including rapid consultation with other specialty areas, expedited diagnostic and endoscopic evaluation, and coordinated transition to surgery or oncology care. Faster, integrated care by Weill Cornell experts leads to a quicker diagnosis and rapid therapy.
