NPF Centers of Excellence are premier healthcare facilities that focus on the multidisciplinary treatment of pancreas disease, treating the “whole patient” with a focus on the best possible outcomes and improved quality of life. There are currently over 170 NPF Centers of Excellence throughout the United States.
The program’s catalyst emerged from the patients’ need to find specialists in the field of pancreas disease. NPF guides our patients, families and caregivers to a specialist that can help with not only the diagnosis of pancreas disease, but NPF Centers of Excellence can help with pain management, nutrition information, surgery, and psychosocial support. Our objective is to have the best patient outcomes, which means treating the ‘whole patient.”
