General and Thoracic Surgery

At WVU Medicine Golisano Children’s, our pediatric surgery specialists understand how parents – and kids – feel before and after surgery. We know you might have many questions, and we are here to help.

Our multidisciplinary surgical team of surgeons, nurses, other medical professionals, and child life specialists are here to help ease fears and guide you through each appointment.

From infancy to adolescence and young adulthood, you can count on our advanced surgical care to be delivered in a comforting environment for the patient and family.

Our surgeons use the latest surgical technologies including endoscopic, robotic, and minimally invasive approaches like thoracoscopy or laparoscopy whenever possible.

These minimally invasive methods result in fewer and smaller incisions, and often result in less pain, a shorter hospital stay, and a faster recovery.

No matter what type of surgery your child needs, we offer the expertise of a specialized surgical team that treats conditions affecting children at every age.
