A surgeon or medical specialist who performs bronchotomy, the surgical cutting or incision of the bronchi.
From 'bronchotomy' (the surgical procedure) + '-ist' (one who practices or specializes in). The '-ist' suffix comes from Greek and Latin, indicating a practitioner or person skilled in a particular field.
Most medical specialist titles follow this pattern: a cardiologist studies the heart, a dermatologist studies skin, and a bronchotomist performs surgery on the bronchi. The '-ist' and '-ologist' suffixes are how medicine creates job titles from body parts and procedures.
