Dr. Christopher Wolfgang, MD

Dr Wolfgang is a straight up rock star. Period. He saved my life, his team was attentive, I attribute my complete recovery to his expertise. Did he hold my hand? No, that’s not his job, but he was kind and empathetic, and for crying out loud he’s the best in the world so if you think he’s going to hover over you like a hen you’re crazy, he’ll save you, then he’s got other people to save! But he is your surgeon for life, and he means it! I would never let another surgeon touch me unless Wolfgang approved. He’s the one.

While Dr. Wolfgang's experience may place him as a top provider; his team's awareness of the disease they are actually treating is close to null. His team failed to understand the urgency of time when it comes to cancer and used poor excuses to postpone appointments. The doctor was always "busy" or "on holiday/conferences". Cancer doesn't wait! This resulted in the change of the patient's prognosis from stage 2 (resectable) to a stage 4 (metastasis) for mere negligence. When I tried to provide feedback re: his team's actions, at first, Dr. Wolfgang appeared very interested to hear about the details of the circumstances that led to my mother's treatment being ignored during a crucial time. But after 3 attempts at providing such details, Dr. Wolfgang continuously, and very purposely, evaded the subject and never followed-up. In conclusion, because of his team's unprofessionalism and disregard, my mother's surgery was canceled and her life expectancy shortened from years to months.

Dr Wolfgang saved my life with performing an excellent Whipple surgery. He was chosen as considered the best. Have enjoyed my follow up visits. Highly recommend him.

My wife had pancreatic surgery January 18, 2018, I can't express enough words and feelings about Dr. Wolfgang. He performed a surgery that we were told was inoperable. Truly thankful and have the utmost appreciation for the way Dr. Wolfgang took care of my wife. He saved her life. Highly recommend his experience, professionalism, and amazing skills. Forever grateful for helping her and being there along the way. Thank you Dr. Wolfgang to you and your team.

Dr. Wolfgang performed the Whipple procedure on my father in September of 2017. He was empathetic, kind, confident and flawless. We couldn't imagine going anywhere else for such a complex operation. We continue to call Dr. Wolfgang a friend, and thank him for saving our hero!

I have great faith in Dr. Wolfgang. The best decision I made was going to see him. He not only is an outstanding Doctor but my wife and I consider him our friend. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing whipple surgery. It's been a long process but I am glad that I chose Dr. Wolfgang to follow me along the way. Thanks, Dr. Wolfgang.

Dr. Wolfgang a gifted, skillful, extremely experienced, & humble Surgeon. I felt confident going into surgery w/him as Surgeon for Whipple Procedure. He's the full package w/a calming & friendly bedside manner. My outcome was better than I could hope. He's both caring & supportive. Just know he's a busy much in demand Surgeon wearing multiple hats as Chief of Hepatobilliary Surgery, Surgeon &researcher. He is dedicated to treatment of & finding a screening test for Pancreatic Cancer.

Quite a negative experience. The experimental surgery he performed had not been done as many times as he represented in our initial consultation. He had been chosen based on this number. The result was disastrous. There after he and his team weere arrogant and aloof when kindness and compassion were the correct responses.
