Overview

Trainees in our cardiothoracic surgery program will learn to perform the most complex cases in CT surgery. We have an active TAVR and transplant program. On the thoracic side, we perform VATS pneumonectomy, minimally invasive esophagectomy and a wide range of open procedures for large tumors and great vessel reconstruction. Our trainees will also be exposed to endobronchial procedures such as EBUS and rigid bronchoscopy.
