Getting ready for Cardiothoracic clinic

Yes, today I see patients in clinic. It is a cardiothoracic clinic, but I will be seeing the thoracic patients for 2 different attendings. Here is a run down of the patients who are coming today.

- A 74 year old man who had an esophagectomy who is here for his 3 month follow-up appointment
- A 59 year old man who had an elective VATS and wedge resection of a left lung lesion which turns out to be metastatic melanoma. He is here for a follow-up appointment.
- A 68 year old man who who had a left upper quadrant lobectomy that turned out to be adenocarcinoma.

We are seeing many patients today and this is just a sample of the kind of people we see in the thoracic clinic.
