Our surgeons are among the most highly reputed in the San Francisco Bay Area and the country and offer the highest level of expertise available in all areas of thoracic surgery. We have a particularly high level of experience with minimally invasive techniques, such as VATS (thoracoscopic) lobectomy, transcervical thymectomy, and VATS sympathectomy. |
