James R. Pellechi, MD
Caring for patients with chest conditions who require surgery is problem-focused, but I find that getting to know each person outside of their medical condition allows me to provide truly comprehensive care. My goal is to put patients at ease so they have the best possible outcome following their surgery. I love what I do because my patient relationships do not end abruptly after surgery. I value the opportunity to follow each person over time, building long‑standing connections as I support their healing and get to see them return to doing what they love.
