Brendan C. Visser, MD
Hepatobiliary surgeon, Pancreatic surgeon, Surgical oncologist
Associate Professor of Surgery (General Surgery) at the Stanford University Medical Center
Bio:
Dr. Visser is a native of San Francisco, the youngest of eight children. He attended Deep Springs College in Eastern California and then went on to earn his BS at Cornell University in Ithaca NY. After receiving his MD degree at the University of California - San Francisco, he stayed at UCSF for his residency training in general surgery. He then completed specialized fellowship training in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery (also called HPB surgery) at the University of Edinburgh in Ediburgh, UK. Dr. Visser is board certified in general surgery by the American Board of Surgery. His principle practice is at Stanford Hospital and the Stanford Cancer Center, but he is also a staff surgeon at the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System, serving our veteran patients.
Dr. Visser is actively involved in the General Surgery training program and is the program director for the Stanford Hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) Surgery fellowship program. Dr. Visser was honored in 2011 with the John Collins Memorial Teaching Award, an annual faculty recognition selected by the entire body of general surgery residents. He also received the Best Rotation Award in 2015, which is selected by Stanford chief residents in general surgery. He is the Medical Director of the GI Cancer Care Program at the Stanford Cancer Center.

First comes into room and states rather abruptly I don't like your pulmonary function.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
Utmost trust in Dr. Visser. Couldn't have a BETTER doctor.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
Dr Visser saver my life!
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
When I asked about my CT scan, I was told not to worry about it. He said the other doctors do not know how to read them. He asked me if I had any questions. I asked him about one of the things that was on the CT scan and again he told me that the person that wrote about what they saw on the scan did not know how to read it. He never explained why. I left wondering why three other doctors, that do not know each other came up with the same conclusion. I tried to tell him that something else is going on but he said that everything is good with me and not to worry. That is hard to do when I am feeling sick.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
Drs. were knowledgeable and explained things well. The only negative aspect was that Dr. Visser was continually paged and had to take a phone call during my appointment.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
good
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
Dr. Visser explains everything and cares very much.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
Dr. Visser was EXCELLENT in every way.
SHC Patient, Oct 2019
Dr. Visser is clearly an expert in his field, and he was honest and straightforward with me about not knowing what kind of mass I had, despite that being difficult news. He & his staff recognized that they could help me sooner rather than later & worked to make that happen.
SHC Patient, Oct 2019
I am in good hands. Am very happy I came to Stanford.
SHC Patient, Sep 2019
They rush in late & rush out immediately... having someone else come in... very unorganized or lack of communication.

SHC Patient, Feb 2019
Dr, Visser did not share any information I did not know. Did not offer any recommendation other than surgery as expected. More in depth analysis of my unique condition would have been helpful. Statistics in probability of progression on my pancreatic NET was missing.
SHC Patient, Feb 2019
I think that Stanford Health Care is the best we have in California all excellent.

SHC Patient, Dec 2018
Dr. Visser was amazing. He answered all our questions & concerns... He was very kind. His PA that saw us the first day was amazing helped with drsg. D & skin.
SHC Patient, Dec 2018
I am still confused about the information from the consultation, and I can't find a way to get questions answered. I think Dr. Visser is an excellent surgeon, but I will probably either cancel or delay the surgery. Also, if they won't respond to phone calls now, and I had a problem after surgery, would they respond them? Maybe not.
SHC Patient, Oct 2018
Dr Visser had review my case before entering the exam room. He put me at ease and instilled confidence that he is competent and knowledgeable surgeon.

Dr. Visser explained very clearly & answered all questions we had.
SHC Patient, Jan 2017
Always the best of care.
SHC Patient, Jan 2017
Dr Visser is a very nice man who can come down to your level and explain to you what he thinks. He is very good at being honest and providing you with any choice there may be. I liked his style very much. He knows people come to see him and they are nervous I believe Dr Visser realizes this and shows care and kindness yet he does give you the feeling he is very confidant but in a good way NOT an arrogant way.
SHC Patient, Nov 2016
Dr. Visser impresses me with his knowledge and expertise in his field. He makes me feel very comfortable and at easy when talking to him about my condition. He tends to explain things in easy to underst terms without feeling you are being talked down to.

Dr. Visser was the first professional after seeing many doctors that came in and told me exactly what my health issue was and how to proceed. He explained every detail of what needed to be done leading up to my surgery in preparation to the details of the surgery. Dr. Visser takes his time and explains everything in a way that a person who is not a doctor can understand. he cares about his patients and his work.
