Patients and referring physicians need ready access to quality indicators when making decisions about surgical care. At Providence Thoracic Surgery Program, we publish information every year on how we meet or exceed national benchmarks for common surgeries, such as lobectomy and pneumonectomy. At the same time, we share evidence on how we are improving patients’ quality of life with innovative and minimally invasive video-assisted thoracic surgeries.
On this site, you have access to the same data that we scrutinize ourselves. As the leading chest surgery program in our region, we are setting the bar higher for peer programs nationwide.
