Both Dr. Chernoguz and Dr. Jackson are fellowship-trained in pediatric surgery and ECMO. ECMO stands for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, which is a life-support system used in critical care situations when a patient’s heart and lungs need help to heal.
“At Brown Surgical Associates, we are committed to providing world-class care to all of our patients – no matter their age. Children have very specific needs and it’s important that we have skilled and compassionate providers to care for our youngest patients,” said Dr. William Cioffi, President of Brown Surgical Associates. “Both Dr. Chernoguz and Dr. Jackson bring with them a wealth of experience that will complement our renown pediatric team.”
In addition to pediatric surgery and ECMO, Dr. Cheroguz specializes in minimally invasive surgery and adolescent bariatric surgery. He received his medical degree from Albany Medical College in New York and completed his surgical residency through Mount Sinai Hospital. He completed both his pediatric surgery and ECMO fellowships at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.
Dr. Jackson’s additional special clinical interests include chest wall reconstruction, thoracic surgery, minimally invasive techniques, and neonatal surgery. He earned his medical degree at Rutgers University’s Robert Wood Medical School in New Jersey and completed a general surgery residency at the University of Chicago Hospitals, where he also completed his ECMO fellowship. He completed the pediatric surgery fellowship program at Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario and a fellowship in adult thoracic and foregut surgery at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine.
In addition to surgical duties, Dr. Chernoguz and Dr. Jackson are both assistant professors of surgery at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.
