Meet Dr. Meyers 

Dr. Bryan Meyers is a thoracic surgeon specializing in lung and esophageal cancer, lung transplantation, and general thoracic surgery for benign and malignant diseases of the chest and esophagus. 

He has expertise in minimally invasive approaches, including robotic surgery, that often result in less pain, shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times.

Dr. Meyers earned his medical degree from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine. He completed general surgery residency training at Massachusetts General Hospital and a cardiothoracic surgery residency at WashU Medicine in St. Louis.  

When detected early, lung cancer is treatable—and even curable. That’s why screening is so important for anyone who is eligible.
