General Thoracic and Vascular Surgery includes surgeries that involve the abdominal organs, esophagus, lungs and circulation. Other associated procedures, including lesion removal, colonoscopy, bronchoscopy and gastroscopy, are also performed. Surgeons are often involved with diagnostic procedures such as breast biopsies or evaluations following an abnormal mammogram.  The Alexandria Clinic, P.A. uses the most recent techniques to improve patient care and shorten recovery times.
