Several Ochsner surgeons specialize and have extensive experience with endocrine surgery, minimally invasive parathyroidectomy and difficult reoperations (thyroid and parathyroid). Our experts utilize the most advanced clinical treatments available to diagnose and treat patients with endocrine disorders such as hyperparathyroidism, thyroid nodules and cancer of the thyroid and thymus. We’ve found that many adrenal conditions requiring surgery are now amenable to minimally invasive surgery. We take special measures to ensure the comfort and education of our patients as well as their family members - knowing they all play an important role in the recovery process.
