Dr. Myat Han Soe is an endocrinologist who cares for patients with endocrine dysfunction and endocrine gland tumors, such as thyroid cancers; parathyroid tumors; and adrenal tumors, including pheochromocytomas.

In his research, Soe investigates thyroid cancer that doesn't respond to radioactive iodine therapy. He also studies risk factors for metastasis (the spread of cancer from its original site) in pheochromocytoma (a rare adrenal gland tumor) and paraganglioma (a rare tumor that forms along nerve pathways, most often in the head or neck).

Soe earned his medical degree at the University of Medicine, Mandalay in Myanmar. He completed a residency in internal medicine at the University of Maryland Prince George's Hospital Center and a fellowship in endocrinology at UCSF. He also completed a fellowship in medical education at UMass Chan Medical School – Baystate and earned a master's degree in health sciences at Western Illinois University.

Soe was recognized as a Young Achiever by the American College of Physicians. He also received the Martin I. Broder Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award at UMass Chan Medical School – Baystate for two consecutive years.

    About our process
    Aug 28, 2024
    I'm so happy with our relationship. We have been together a relatively short time now but I feel like Dr Soe remembers me and my case every time we talk. A true partner. I never have to reeducate him about my medical history, even that outside of endocrine medicine. I have sent many people his way!

    Session felt a bit rushed. I would have liked more discussion about the blood tests results and perhaps a few more polite questions about my health, etc. On the other hand, I assume that there was not much to say.

    Dr. Soe was instrumental in informing me about the potential risks of "biodynamic drugs" that some friends or providers may offer as a solution to my medical needs. Since I had never heard of these drugs before, I deeply appreciated the warning and his explanation as to why these are not viable solutions. Forewarned is forearmed. Thank you!

    He was easily the best doctor I've ever seen for my medical issue, had a clear plan for how we can Identify the problem. Past doctors at other practices have dismissed my concerns and basically told me that they couldn't help me, I'm really glad I found a second opinion

    Dr. Soe's explanations of my u/s and general issues with thyroid nodules were well organized and clear. He was very careful to go over my medical history and that of my family. He was very reassuring.
    Dec 11, 2022
    Very good doctor.
    Dec 10, 2022
    I would just say that when receiving news that something is cancerous, that dr Soe should take a moment to call that individual personally on the phone and explain the situation to them rather than email the news. It was pretty shocking to receive the news of a second cancer diagnosis via email. Regardless of the "survivability and ease of removal" cancer should be communicated directly to a patient in person or via phone. Additionally, a follow up appointment should be on the books after in order to help the patient with this diagnosis.

    Professional and knowledgeable

    There will be some coordination with my regular endocrinologist, but I'm not sure of the timing or content. Not sure whether I will have additional visits with the UCSF doctor. I got an understanding of my unusual lab results, and validation for my own perceptions about my condition, which none of the endocrinologists I've seen could understand.
