"Philosophy of care | Each of my patients is special and I try my best to treat each person as a whole.  I believe in merging the most advanced technological surgical techniques with a holistic approach. | Also, I am a member of the thoracic cancer multidisciplinary consultation team. Together we review your diagnostic information and give you a written opinion reflecting the scope of your condition and recommendations for your best course of care. | Why I entered medicine | I believe medicine and surgery is a true life's calling. To be able to dedicate oneself in treating others is truly a privilege and honor. Surgery allows me to focus on the ""moment"" that is almost a spiritual experience. | Community involvement | While I was practicing in Philadelphia, I started a community 10k and 5k run in Washington Crossing to beat lung cancer. Not only to raise for money for lung cancer research but also to educate the public about lung cancer screening. As a thoracic surgeon, my role extends beyond operating. I potentially can save more – even lives – through education. | Personal interests | I enjoy martial arts, meditation, hiking, camping and fishing. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 42th for pulmonology and lung surgery on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list. | ". Dr. Chang is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Lung Nodules. His top areas of expertise are Lung Nodules, Pleuropulmonary Blastoma, Squamous Cell Lung Carcinoma, ALK-Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, and Thymectomy.
