Endocrine surgery

What we do

We provide complete high-level care for endocrine conditions needing surgery and work closely with non-surgical endocrinology, discussing and reviewing the treatment of patients with adrenal or thyroid conditions.

We offer a wide range of surgery, from minimally invasive day operations to major cancer surgery. Our key services include surgery for:

• all thyroid diseases, including nodules, neck lumps, cancer, Graves' disease and thyroiditis
• under- or overactive thyroid (parathyroid) and parathyroid cancer
• adrenal cancer and conditions such as Cushing's and Conn's
• rare and genetic diseases including Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN 1 and MEN2).
