Scripps surgeons hold a wide range of expertise in chest and heart surgery, performing effective procedures to address cardiac and pulmonary disorders. Advanced diagnostics give our surgeons the thorough, precise analysis needed to proceed with effective care plans, while a multidisciplinary group of associated specialists are on hand to ensure a comprehensive approach.

Scripps cardiothoracic surgeons work closely with cancer physicians to offer effective options for patients with chest cancers.

The surgery program continually refines the treatment and care protocols in practice, always working to provide the best possible results for patients. This commitment translates into safer procedures and optimal recoveries.

Our commitment to patients extends beyond the surgical procedure to post-operative care. Comprehensive patient support services enhance whole person healing, and a variety of complementary therapies are available to reduce the stress and pain of recovery. Scripps wants patients to get back to the lives they love as soon as possible.
