Jamie L. Bessich, MD

As the section chief of the interventional pulmonary program and the director of bronchoscopy at NYU Langone’s Tisch Hospital, I provide comprehensive and compassionate care to my patients. My role at NYU Langone allows me to combine my passion for patient–provider relationships with cutting-edge medical techniques, ensuring that each patient receives the highest quality of treatment tailored to their specific needs.

I specialize in managing complex pulmonary conditions, including lung cancer, airway disorders, and other chronic respiratory diseases. With extensive training and over 15 years of experience in interventional pulmonology, I am adept at performing advanced diagnostic and therapeutic procedures such as bronchoscopy. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my board certification in pulmonary disease and critical care medicine, which underscores my expertise in this field.

Throughout my career, I have focused on advancing the field of interventional pulmonology through both clinical practice and research. My work at NYU Langone involves collaborating with a team to develop innovative treatments and improve patient outcomes. I am particularly passionate about using minimally invasive techniques to diagnose and treat lung conditions, which can lead to quicker recovery times and better overall patient experiences.

My journey into medicine was inspired by a desire to make a tangible difference in people's lives. The dynamic and evolving nature of pulmonary medicine, combined with the opportunity to work closely with patients and their families, continues to drive my dedication to my profession.
