David Jones, MD, FCCP, DABSM

David Jones, MD, FCCP is a board-certified pulmonary and sleep medicine physician at the UT Health East Texas Pulmonary Institute on South Fleishel in Tyler. He is also boardcertified in internal and critical care medicine. “My goal is always to be a patient advocate. That means being sensitive to patient needs and knowing that one size does not fit all. That translates into adapting as needed so that the outcome is as good as we can make it,” said Dr. Jones.

He got into healthcare because he grew up in a medical family. “My father was a small-town general practitioner who demonstrated great attributes of being a doctor and my mother was a nurse.” Dr. Jones has practiced in Tyler for more than 30 years. He has special expertise in interventional procedures for pulmonary medicine and many different bronchoscopic procedures, including robotic bronchoscopy, laser, photodynamic therapy, stenting, argon plasma coagulation (APC) and others.

Dr. Jones is employed as a clinical faculty physician at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler under the UT Tyler School of Medicine.
