Meet James

I am a Board Certified Cardiac and Thoracic Surgeon who has practiced heart and lung surgery in western Kentucky for 27 years. I specialize in heart valve replacement and repair, off pump beating heart coronary artery bypass surgery, surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation and hybrid procedures. I perform minimal access chest and lung surgery which results in quicker recovery.
