Thoracic surgery
Our thoracic program offers minimally invasive surgical techniques to address benign conditions affecting the esophagus. We can also use video-assisted thoracic surgery for lung cancer and perform robot-assisted thoracic surgery. Minimally invasive surgery can contribute to less pain, shorter hospital stays and a quicker return to normal activities.
Although minimally invasive procedures are available, sometimes traditional surgery must be used. Our team will review all possible options during your office visit. We are dedicated to guiding you through every step of your health journey, providing detailed explanations and unlimited support before, during and after your treatment.
