Minimally invasive treatments:
The specialists use long tubes (endoscopes) with a camera and instruments at the tip to evaluate and treat airway problems. Instead of an incision in your neck, we slide the endoscope down your throat to reach problem areas. This approach for eligible patients protects more healthy tissue.
-
Careful diagnosis:
Specialists use advanced imaging techniques in eligible patients to pinpoint the source of the problem and plan treatments. Your care includes imaging scans and endoscopy using modern equipment. You receive tests as quickly as possible so you can start healing.

Trachea tumor care:
Our services help you avoid complications such as a collapsed lung. Procedures may also help you feel well enough to receive additional treatments, including chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
