Following rigorous and lengthy training, thoracic surgeons are uniquely qualified to perform complex surgeries on the chest, or thorax as it is sometimes called. Their focus is usually on the lungs, esophagus, and other areas of the chest, and may also include the heart. As such, Dr. Sanders may see patients in Colorado for a wide range of surgeries, for example removing cancer causing tumors from the esophagus and chest wall, or even a lung transplant.
As a neurosurgeon, Dr. Sanders is trained to perform highly technical surgeries to correct disorders of the central, autonomic or peripheral nervous systems. He may provide both invasive and minimally-invasive surgical treatment options, depending upon the patient's condition. Neurosurgeons may treat spinal disorders, traumatic brain injuries, tumors, Parkinson's disease, and more.
Abnormalities of the crucial areas of the nervous system may cause neurological complications. Dr. Richard Sanders addresses these conditions by conducting tests, scans and determining a diagnosis. The diagnosis is needed to come up with a treatment plan, which may involve medication management, targeted therapies, lifestyle changes, or other options.
