Thoracic surgeon: Look for a thoracic surgeon in your area. Ask around for competence, bedside manner, etc. Your family physician would be a great start.

A Thoracic surgeon: I am not trying to be flippant, but I have no idea what your pain is from. There is no information here. If you feel that your pain is chest related, you should see a thoracic surgeon. Otherwise, a pain specialist may be your best bet.
