Which is the Best doctor for colangicarcinoma surgery in new York?

Hi,

I just saw your post. My mother was diagnosed with Cholangiocarcinoma a week before mother’s day. 3 weeks ago she had surgery to remove the tumor as well as part of her liver. The Dr.’s name is Dr. Myron Schwartz with Mt. Sainai in the city. He was absolutely amazing. She is NED (no evidence of disease) now thanks to him and his partner. Dr. Fong was also one of the DR’s recommended. They both have excellent backgrounds. Good luck! My thoughts are with you!!! –Danielle

I saw your other post on this topic. Both Dr. Emond and Dr. Fong are very experienced with CC. I was treated at Columbia Presbyterian with surgery (resection) by Dr. T. Kato, a brilliant surgeon, who works with Dr. Emond. I don’t have any direct experience with Dr. Fong, but know of him by reputation. They do many liver transplants at Columbia and a lot of other liver/billiary surgeries as well. Good luck. It would be hard to select two better surgeons to consult with.
