Before you choose a thoracic surgeon
A thoracic surgeon operates on the lungs, the lining around them, the chest wall and the area between the lungs, for example removing lung nodules, treating a recurrent collapsed lung and draining fluid around the lung. They usually work with lung specialists and oncologists to decide whether surgery is the right step. A nearby clinic makes checks on the wound and breathing after surgery easier.
Whether you searched for “chest surgeon near me”, “lung surgeon near me”, “thoracic surgery consultation near me” or “thoracic surgeon near me”, this page lists the published profiles in Jordan and sorts them by distance from you.
When to see a thoracic surgeon
A nodule or mass on a chest CT scan that your doctor wants assessed or biopsied.
A collapsed lung that has happened more than once or did not settle with initial treatment.
Fluid around the lung that keeps coming back or needs its cause found and drained.
Severe sweating of the hands that has not responded to other treatments and you want to know if surgery is an option.
A chest wall deformity such as a sunken chest, or a mass between the lungs found on tests.
What to bring to your visit
Bring the actual CT and X-ray images on a disc or link along with their reports, not the report alone.
Bring lung function results, previous biopsies and the referral letter from your doctor if you have one.
List your medicines, especially blood thinners, along with chronic conditions and past operations.
Be ready to discuss smoking or shisha use, since stopping before surgery supports recovery.
When to go to the emergency department instead
Sudden breathlessness with sharp pain on one side of the chest may be a collapsed lung, so call 911 now.
Coughing up a noticeable amount of blood, or doing so repeatedly, needs the emergency department rather than a clinic.
A chest injury from an accident or fall with severe pain or trouble breathing needs emergency care immediately.
After chest surgery, high fever, increasing breathlessness or discharge from the wound needs an emergency review.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find a thoracic surgeon near me?
Tap “Use my location” at the top of this page and allow location access: the thoracic surgeons are re-sorted by distance from you, with the distance on every card. If you prefer not to share your location, pick your governorate or district instead.
Does ClinicsJo keep my location?
Your approximate location (rounded to about 100 metres) is only used to calculate distances for this search. It is not linked to an account and it is never added to the page address, so a shared link does not reveal where you are.
Where are thoracic surgeons listed in Jordan?
ClinicsJo lists 6 thoracic surgeons in 1 governorate. Most are in Amman (6). Each governorate link below opens the full local list.
What if there is no thoracic surgeon close to me?
The search widens step by step (5, 10, 25, 50, 100 then 200 km) until it finds listings, and tells you how far it went. You can also pick a neighbouring governorate from the list.
Can I see who is available now?
Turn on “Available now” to keep doctors whose declared working hours include the current time in Amman. Hours are declared by each clinic, so call before you go.
What is the difference between a lung specialist and a thoracic surgeon?
A lung specialist diagnoses and treats lung diseases such as asthma and lung infections with medicines and follow-up. A thoracic surgeon assesses cases that may need an operation, a surgical biopsy or drainage. The two often decide together.
Does every lung nodule need surgery?
No. Many small lung nodules are followed with repeat CT scans and no surgery. The decision depends on the size and shape of the nodule, whether it changes over time and your risk factors. The thoracic surgeon and your doctor will discuss the options that fit your case.
