This web site is designed to educate you about thyroid and parathyroid surgery. These are procedures performed on either your thyroid or parathyroid gland which are located in your neck, just below your Adam’s apple. Over the past 50 years much progress has been made in performing these surgeries. Because of this, most procedures are minimally invasive and can usually be performed as an out-patient. In addition, we have seen a tremendous increase in the cure rates for most surgical diseases of these glands.  Use the links above to obtain the information that is most useful to your condition. There is also information on the author of this website. Hopefully, most of your fears of this type of surgery can be addressed.
