He was the first physician in the region to utilize the Auris Monarch platform, a robotic bronchoscope that allows deeper access to the lung without surgery. He uses endobronchial ultrasound to biopsy lymph nodes, place stents in cancerous airways, and perform all other minimally invasive techniques to help patients with lung cancer. He sees patients in clinic on Fridays. Dr. Kyle-Hogarth is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Systemic Sclerosis (SSc).
