General Info

I believe that every patient deserves to have every question that they have answered, no matter how much time this takes.If I were navigating a new cancer diagnosis for myself or a family member, I would hope that a physician would give me this kind of time. I pride myself on the relationships that I have with my patients and the bond that we form. I am a dual board-certified thoracic surgeon and general surgeon, having trained at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and University of Virginia. Ispecialize in minimally invasive thoracic surgery, both thoracoscopic and robotic, focusing specifically on diseases of the lung, chest and esophagus. I have a special interest in treating cancers of the lungs and esophagus. Additionally, I perform surgical and endoscopic procedures in patients with swallowing disorders involving the esophagus and the stomach. In addition to my primary role as a surgeon, I see myself as an educator. Training the next generation of surgeons is essential to the continued success in our field. This is why I am the assistant program director of the St. Luke’s general surgery residency program. Outside of the hospital, I am an avid runner and I love to travel. The best part of my life though is spending time with my husband, Andrew Brown, who is also a surgeon at St Luke’s, and our son, who just joined our family in January, 2020. I am also a Philadelphia native who is filled with hometown pride.
