Dr. Lisandro M. Montorfano

I am a cancer surgeon who specializes in treating patients with pre-cancerous and cancerous conditions of the pancreas, liver, bile ducts, stomach, and adrenal glands. I initially trained and practiced at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. During this time, I served one year on a forward surgical team in Iraq. Following this service, I practiced for 13 years as a surgical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. In 2018, I joined the faculty at Duke University and now serve as the chief of surgical oncology for Duke Health. I enjoy getting to know my patients and delivering the highest quality of cancer care. I am dedicated not only to treating and curing your cancer, but also providing you with the highest quality of life. Operations for cancers within the abdomen are a serious undertaking, and I am committed to making sure that they are performed with the highest level of expertise.

My clinical interest is in caring for patients with pre-cancerous and cancerous conditions of the liver, bile ducts, and pancreas. I enjoy treating each patient with a personalized and holistic therapeutic plan, oftentimes using creativity to tailor treatment specifically to them. Being a surgeon at Duke means that I can collaborate with experts from many different specialties and work with a team of caring, compassionate, and talented support staff to provide an unrivaled experience and the best outcomes for patients. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy spending time with my wife, two children, and dog, exploring the natural beauty of Durham and surrounding areas in North Carolina, and supporting local entrepreneurs by dining at local restaurants and attending events in the community, such as the Durham Farmers' Market.
