I live in Nashville, TN and when I found out I needed surgery on my parathyroids I met with a surgeon in Nashville. I had done lots or research prior to my appointment and found Norman Parathyroid Center in Tampa. NPC explained their surgery procedure which was that they checked all four parathyroids during each of their surgeries to ensure that they can identify all potential tumors and to remove them so you can get well.
The local surgeon in Nashville I met with explained the surgical procedure they use. They use radio technology to find a parathyroid tumor. They remove that tumor and if the PTH drops (checked in surgery) by 50% they stop and your surgery is done. They say that procedure is successful removing all tumors 85% of the time. I chose NPC in Tampa. I wanted to be 100% tumor free. Dr. Politz was fabulous. He has the experience and expertise I needed. I had one larger tumor and a small tumor that was attached to my vocal chords. He removed the two parathyroids and I am talking away. I m forever grateful. I highly recommend NPC and Dr. Politz.
