Endocrine Surgery

If you have noticed signs of goitre (neck lump(s)), or parathyroid problems (elevated calcium levels), please book an appointment to see me by contacting my secretary here.

I offer the following surgical endocrine procedures:

Thyroidectomy

The thyroid gland produces hormones that are necessary for keeping up the normal metabolic function of human cells. Sometimes the gland produces nodules that are generally benign and a very small percentage can be cancerous. The thyroid gland is investigated by doing a blood test to check its function, and an ultrasound scan tells us about the nature of the thyroid gland enlargement and morphology of its nodules. I offer surgical treatment for thyroid conditions in the form of the removal of either one lobe (thyroid lobectomy) or most of the thyroid gland (total thyroidectomy). ​

Minimal access parathyroid surgery

Parathyroid surgery is usually performed using a collar incision in the neck. However, in minimal access parathyroid surgery, the incision is small and the procedure is carried out as a day case, resulting in faster recovery and leaving a smaller surgical scar.
