My name is Phil Carrott. I'm a thoracic surgeon and the surgical director of the lung transplant program.

So in thoracic surgery, we see patients that have conditions related to the chest. So the ribs, lungs, esophagus, diaphragm. It's a wide variety of conditions and organs that we treat.

New patients can expect a careful assessment of their problems and conditions, and really hopefully an honest and frank discussion about what we think is best for their care as well as what options there are for treatment.

I think people should choose UVA for their thoracic surgery, mostly due to the quality and team approach that we take here. We're the only transplant center in the southern part of Virginia. The greatest satisfaction in patient care is really being able to hopefully help with their condition, whether it's reflux disease or lung cancer, and have a good outcome.
