When you need surgery for conditions affecting your esophagus or lungs, you deserve the highest level of care. At St. Luke’s, our thoracic team is led by experienced, board-certified surgeons and supported by skilled nurses and technical specialists all working together to ensure exceptional care before, during, and after your procedure.

We treat a wide range of conditions, including tumors, cancer, and pleural disease. Our surgical capabilities include both traditional chest surgery and esophagectomy, as well as advanced, minimally invasive, video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for biopsies, lung lesion removal, and lobectomy.

We also offer specialized procedures such as minimally invasive staging of the mediastinum including endobronchial and endoscopic ultrasound, transcervical thymectomy for myasthenia gravis, and chest wall resection and reconstruction.
