Dr. Cooperman performed 5 years ago an extremely complicated pancreatic surgery minimally invasive with involvement to colon that had metastazised to liver and lung. No reoccurrence! I cannot praise Dr. Cooperman enough. He will always hold a very special place in my heart. He saved my live!

Dr Cooperman was my surgeon in 2002 for an insulinoma on my pancreas. His expertise in this field save my life. He is possibly one of the very best doctors I have had in my life- and believe I have had a lot of doctors! He not only removed the tumor, but also my gall bladder. Recovery was hard, yet he took the time to call me at home and check on me. Ive lost touch with him over the years, but I just wanted to say thank you again for giving me back my life.

I am sorry to see this man is still practicing- he once told me a lump in my breast wasn't cancer because he could tell by feeling it. I went a year without treatment and finally INSISTED it come out- surprise- wrong. That meant aggressive chemo, no children for me either, and I found out 7 of the 9 women he made similar mistakes with are dead. DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Don't fall for the charm.

If you are looking for the best in pancreatic cancer, than this is the doctor. He along with Dr Wayne, saved my mothers life when other doctors told us there was no hope.
