Norton Thoracic Institute, which is headquartered at Dignity Health St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix, is now serving Chandler.
Norton offers the highest-rated lung transplant program in the western part of the United States, according to SanTanSun.com, and doctors from the esophageal and lung center in Phoenix are now seeing patients in Chandler, at Dignity Health Chandler Regional Medical Center.
Several new doctors have joined the Norton practice, which includes the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of diseases of the esophagus, chest, or lungs. The Institute's executive director, Dr. Ross Bremner, said patients come to Norton from all over the world, and the program has grown quickly. Expanding out from Phoenix is a logical step, since some patients are unable to travel to the downtown medical center.
Norton's lung transplant program was ranked second busiest in the country in 2015, but it has wait times that are shorter than average, while one-year survival rates are above average. The Institute's lung transplant team has performed more than 450 transplants on patients from over 30 states since the facility opened in 2007. In addition, Norton Thoracic Institute gives lung cancer patients second opinions, undertakes cutting-edge research, and focuses on training young doctors to improve patient outcomes.
