Biography

Dr. Eric Keyser has a passion for cardiothoracic medicine stemming from his mother’s battle with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease caused by smoking. Her journey continues to inspire the compassion and commitment he brings to each patient.

“Every patient deserves to be treated as an individual with compassion, dignity and respect,” Dr. Keyser says. “My goal is to provide the safest, highest quality surgical care possible while helping patients and their families feel informed and supported throughout their treatment.”

Outside of medicine, Dr. Keyser enjoys traveling, alpine skiing, scuba diving, surfing and spending time with his four adult children.
