Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery Clinic
UCSF Head and Neck Endocrine (Thyroid and Parathyroid) Surgery provides comprehensive care for patients with thyroid and parathyroid diseases, using both surgical and nonsurgical approaches. We offer in-office ultrasound, a noninvasive and painless imaging test used for diagnosis, procedure planning and cancer surveillance. For our patients' convenience, we are often able to perform the consultation and diagnostic ultrasound exam during the same visit.
