Gary's advice, above, is correct, in my opinion.

My wife decided on having her esophagectomy performed by Shanda Blackmon at Mayo/Rochester. Excellent choice for many reasons. You will find interviews with Dr. Blackmon online.

I received my esophagectomy surgery @ Mayo / Rochester in 2020 by Dr. Dennis Wigle and his excellent team. Was a guest of theirs for 2 weeks (was supposed to be only 1 week but contracted infection in the drainage tube after it was removed). I am so very pleased with their care!!!!
Good luck to us all in our adventures,
Lori
