Review of Norman Parathyroid Center

I spend a lot of time investigating Norman Parathyroid Center before going. I spend hours studying their website and others as well. I really understood hyperparathyroidism well and could handle an intelligent conversation with my doctors. I was concerned about the $4 million Medicare fraud settlement. This really threw a wrench into my decision-making. I questioned the authenticity of the practice. After much thought, I had my surgery done there by Dr. Deva Boone. It is a professionally run practice. There were 16 surgeries done my day of the surgery. When you read their website, you think everyone else is wrong and they are right. I have to say after researching many doctors nationwide that they are right and ahead of the curve. Dr. Boone was excellent in all ways. I would highly recommend her. If you have a parathyroid issue, this is the place to go. They check all four parathyroid glands. They don't do a focused surgery like everyone else. This can be a problem when removal of one bad parathyroid gland doesn't bring down the intra-operative PTH. Then the search for the other bad gland starts and potential problems can occur like a long exploratory surgery or a good gland being removed. In a nutshell, this is the place to go for parathyroid surgery. I can't say this strongly enough.
