On-Site Surgeon

Patients benefit from the full-time presence of the Thoracic Center’s director, Avraham. D. Merav, MD. Evaluation of referred patients often begins on the same day and no later than 48 hours after a referral is made. Diagnostic evaluation proceeds with speed and is often completed within a few days. Patients don’t need to wait for weeks for an appointment and don’t have to travel between hospitals for diagnosis and treatment. Patients well into their 90s are among those who have benefited from the surgical expertise of the Center.
