Procedures We Offer
We specialize in diagnosing and caring for patients with lung and airway conditions. Our physicians use minimally invasive tools and techniques to treat parts of the lungs that previously were accessible only through traditional surgery. We see patients with a wide variety of conditions, including lung cancer, sarcoidosis, pleural effusion, airway strictures and other noncancerous lung conditions.
