Samuel Shelanski, MD

I focus on being highly accessible and responsive for each of my patients.

I am a strong supporter of taking a multidisciplinary approach to managing often-complex disease processes in order to achieve optimal results. I pride myself on providing patient-centered care, making sure patients and their families understand all the diagnostic and treatment options available to them, as well as the potential benefits and risks of surgery. I have a particular interest in minimally invasive thoracic surgical approaches, which can help to minimize postoperative discomfort and get patients back to their activities of daily living as soon and as safely as possible.

At Banner McKee Medical Center our caregivers and other staff members of many disciplines work together and with you and your family to set goals for your stay with us. They are committed to communicating openly and clearly and to making sure you have the best experience possible.
