Dr. Sohini Ghosh Joins the National Jewish Health Interventional Pulmonology Team


DENVER - Sohini Ghosh, MD, has joined National Jewish Health as an interventional pulmonologist specializing in the minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment of complex airway and pleural diseases, lung nodules and lung cancer, and advanced therapies for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). She sees patients at the National Jewish Health main campus in Denver.

Dr. Ghosh comes to National Jewish Health after serving as director of Interventional Pulmonology at Allegheny Health Network (AHN) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she founded and grew the system’s interventional pulmonology program to include multiple board-certified physicians across four clinical sites. She also launched and led AHN’s Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction (BLVR) program, which became the largest-volume center in Western Pennsylvania. Most recently, she served as assistant professor at Drexel University College of Medicine.

Board-certified in pulmonary medicine, critical care medicine and interventional pulmonology, Dr. Ghosh applies a procedural expertise that includes robotic and navigational bronchoscopy for lung nodules, endobronchial ultrasound, airway stenting, endobronchial valve therapies for COPD and persistent air leak, and advanced pleural interventions. Her clinical and research interests span thoracic oncology, COPD (including BLVR candidacy and outcomes), and quality and safety in interventional pulmonology.

An active clinician-investigator, Dr. Ghosh has led and contributed to studies of robotic bronchoscopy learning curves and diagnostic yield, quality-improvement outcomes in cryobiopsy, and precision oncology pathways. Her publications appear in journals, including  Innovations, Frontiers in Immunology, Annals of Thoracic Surgery, Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, Journal of Thoracic Disease, International Journal of COPD and others. She is frequently invited to speak on lung cancer diagnosis, BLVR, management of pleural disease and women in medicine.

Dr. Ghosh is an active member of the American Association for Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology and the American College of Chest Physicians and has served in leadership roles with multidisciplinary lung programs. In the community, she served on the American Lung Association (Pittsburgh) board, and she regularly volunteers for patient education events on lung cancer screening and COPD, while supporting advocacy and fundraising initiatives.

Dr. Ghosh completed Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine and Interventional Pulmonology fellowships at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She completed a combined Internal Medicine–Pediatrics residency at Case Western Reserve University/University Hospitals Case Medical Center in Cleveland. She earned her Doctor of Medicine from Northeast Ohio Medical University and her accelerated Bachelor of Science from Kent State University.
