Lung and Thoracic Cancer

We our part of the WPAHS, the Centers for Lung and Thoracic Disease, providing comprehensive, innovative clinical services for the treatment of lung cancer and other thoracic malignancies.

The multidisciplinary team at the Center for Lung and Thoracic Disease involves experienced thoracic surgeons, medical and radiation oncologists, pulmonologists, and other medical specialists. Their cooperation and coordination allows the Center to offer a state-of-the-art, tailored treatment plan to meet each individual's needs.

In addition, the radiation oncologists and medical oncologists who work with the Center's staff are among the region's leaders in developing and advancing new treatments and maximizing the effectiveness of more traditional options. The lung cancer specialists of the Center helped pioneer a combined program of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery to help improve the cure rate for early stage cancers.
