Thoracic Surgery at Wellstar

Advanced Surgical Options

Thoracic surgery involves the thoracic, or chest, cavity. Our expert thoracic surgeons at Wellstar specialize in treatment of the lungs, esophagus, chest wall, pleura and mediastinum (a cavity between parts of an organ, such as the lungs).

The board-certified thoracic surgeons of Wellstar are conveniently located around metro Atlanta, keeping the care you need close to home. We offer a variety of minimally invasive and robotic surgery options, reducing pain and the length of a hospital stay — helping you get back to your everyday, busy routine sooner.

Efficient, Expert Care

When lung cancer is suspected, the healthcare providers of our STAT Clinic use a multidisciplinary approach. Experts including thoracic surgeons, pulmonologists, medical and radiation oncologists meet together with you to create a personalized care plan on a single visit, speeding the time between diagnosis and treatment. Collaboration between specialists improves the accuracy of diagnoses and the staging of cancer treatment, as well.
