Sarasota Memorial Health Care System recently welcomed Dr. Paul Chomiak, MD, to its surgical oncology team. A board-certified and fellowship-trained thoracic surgeon, Dr. Chomiak joined Sarasota Memorial’s First Physicians Group network as Director of Thoracic Surgical Oncology on January 15. With more than 20 years experience providing specialized treatment to patients with lung cancer and thoracic disease, Dr. Chomiak’s expertise includes robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive techniques for malignant and benign cancers and disorders of the lungs and chest. Prior to relocating to Sarasota, Dr. Chomiak practiced for three years at Sacred Heart Healthcare System in Pensacola, Fla., where he served as medical director of its Lung Nodule Screening Program and on its cancer and robotic steering committees. In April 2017, he was the first thoracic surgeon in Florida to earn certification as a participating physician in the MD Anderson Cancer Network, a program of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center that provides members access to leading-edge technologies, patient treatment protocols, education, research and multidisciplinary approach to patient care.
