Practice History

Shannon's Thoracic and Cardiovascular Department has been providing state-of-the-art diagnostic and surgical procedures of the heart, lung, chest, and major blood vessels for over 20 years. Shannon physicians have performed many medical firsts in the Concho Valley. San Angelo thoracic and cardiovascular surgeons at Shannon performed the first coronary artery bypass graft surgery in 1988, the first valve replacement in 1989, the first off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery in 2000, and the first endoluminal replacement of thoracic aortic aneurysm in 2011. In 2012, the first video-assisted thorascopic lung lobectomy for cancer was performed.

While most of our services continue to involve coronary artery bypass surgery, valve replacement and repair, and aortic surgery, we pride ourselves on the care of the whole patient and their family. The surgeons continue their pioneering spirit by exploring and providing innovative techniques to better care for the people of the Concho Valley.
