He treats benign and malignant lesions of the lung, esophagus, chest wall, tracheobronchial tree and mediastinum. He also treats other conditions including hiatal hernia and achalasia. He specializes in minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery with the DaVinci Surgical System. During medical school at Weill Cornell Medical College, Dr. Inra was fascinated by the anatomy and physiology of the heart and lungs. After observing thoracic surgical operations as a student, he knew thoracic surgery was the career he wanted to pursue.Dr. Inra thereafter completed his residencies in General Surgery and Cardiothoracic Surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, where he trained for seven years under esteemed surgeons in a high-volume setting. There he treated both routine and complex conditions, equipping him for a clinical career with "no surprises." He utilizes innovative technology to improve patient outcomes. For complex pulmonary resections, Dr. Inra leverages 3D reconstruction technology, creating a map of a patient's anatomy before he enters the operating room. A special computerized tomography (CT) protocol using IV contrast gives Dr. Inra the ability to better visualize the pulmonary arteries prior to surgery."When I meet patients for surgical consultations, I try to keep them as informed as possible about their diagnoses," he says. Dr. Inra likes to educate his patients as much as possible about their conditions so they understand why he recommends specific approaches. These recommendations are the result of a multidisciplinary approach to care, backed by the insight of Dr. Inra's experienced team which includes oncologists, radiologists and other medical specialists. Using this comprehensive approach, Dr. Inra commits himself to finding the optimal solution for each patient, according to the unique conditions of their disease. "I try to put myself in my patients' position," Dr. Inra says. "And it's my responsibility to give them the best possible treatment." Read more
