St. Luke's Thoracic Surgical Associates - Bethlehem
I believe that every patient deserves to have every question that they have answered, no matter how much time this takes. If I were navigating a new cancer diagnosis for myself or a family member, I would hope that a physician would give me this kind of time. I pride myself on the relationships that I have with my patients and the bond that we form.
I am a dual board-certified thoracic surgeon and general surgeon, having trained at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and University of Virginia. I specialize in minimally invasive thoracic surgery, both thoracoscopic and robotic, focusing specifically on diseases of the lung, chest and esophagus. I have a special interest in treating cancers of the lungs and esophagus. Additionally, I perform surgical and endoscopic procedures in patients with swallowing disorders involving the esophagus and the stomach.
In addition to my primary role as a surgeon, I see myself as an educator. Training the next generation of surgeons is essential to the continued success in our field. This is why I am the assistant program director of the St. Luke’s general surgery residency program.
Outside of the hospital, I am an avid runner and I love to travel. The best part of my life though is spending time with my husband, Andrew Brown, who is also a surgeon at St Luke’s, and our son, who just joined our family in January, 2020. I am also a Philadelphia native who is filled with hometown pride.
