The surgeons of our practice are not only specialists in their fields - they are also medical leaders, helping to pioneer new and improved treatments, programs and services for cardiothoracic and vascular care. For example, did you know:

• Presbyterian Hospital's open-heart surgery program, established by our surgeons in 1985, has been named one of the nation's Top 100 Cardiac Surgery Centers.
• Our surgeons were selected as co-investigators of the CREST Trial, comparing surgical carotid endarterectomy with carotid artery stenting.
• Our surgeons are directors for the Presbyterian Multidisciplinary Thoracic Oncology Clinic.
