Hageman Foundation is going to start a Whipple Procedure Blog. We are searching for people to write their stories after having a Whipple Procedure. In a few mos. I will be 4 years after the Whipple Procedure. I have gotten lots of e-mail from people that are either going to have a Whipple Procedure or have had the Whipple Procedure and are recovering. Their is also a video about having a Whipple Procedure done with a laprascope, so their are different options available. I strongly recommend that if you need a Whipple Procedure you need to research which medical center you want to have the procedure done. My pearl of wisdom is to research the surgeon that is doing your surgery, make sure the surgeon has done several of these and the hospital that you have your surgery has done several Whipple Procedure.
