    I can tell you that the Mayo Clinic is wonderful! After the news of my Dads CC diagonosis on 8/8/2008 we met with the local doctors after a CT Scan, ERCP and PTC. They said “Surgery was not possible.” I e-mailed Dr. Gregory Gores and told him of what we had been through and 12 minutes later he responded. We were at Mayo 2 days later and met with Dr.Gores that day. Dad went through a number of tests over the next 3 days. Dr. Nagorney is still there and attempted a liver resection 1 week later but was unable to complete it as the tumors had spread farther than they thought. My point is this, the Mayo Clinic has been wonderful, Dr. Gores is amazing as is Dr. Nagorney. The hotel across from the clinic is the Kahler Inn and Suites. One piece of advice, ASK ALOT OF QUESTIONS !! I wish you and your husband the best, you will be in great hands.
