Thyroid Nodule Clinic
Thyroid nodules are common and often detected incidentally during a physical exam, or by the person noticing a seemingly abnormal lump in his or her neck. Even though the vast majority of thyroid nodules are found to be benign, careful evaluation of all suspicious nodules is extremely important to determine which may be malignant.
The Thyroid Nodule Clinic offers comprehensive care by a world-class multidisciplinary team including endocrinologists, surgeons, cytopathologists and diagnostic radiologists. The thyroid nodule team works together to provide accurate and efficient evaluations of thyroid nodules and ensure the best treatment plan for each patient. The mission of the Thyroid Nodule Clinic is to offer our patients the highest quality in care and expertise in the distinction of cancerous from non-cancerous thyroid nodules.
