091622 Dr Jim Norman And Dr Gary Clayman Things To Look For Signs Thyroid Parathryroid

This is a candid interview with Dr. Gary Clayman about thyroid cancer surgery and making sure a patient receives the best available care.  Dr. Clayman has performed more than four hundred thyroid cancer operations per year for over twenty years among patients ranging from 6 months to 100+ years of age. Nearly half of Dr. Clayman’s patients have undergone failed initial surgery for their thyroid cancer by another surgeon or have recurrent, persistent, or aggressive thyroid cancer. If it pertains to thyroid surgery or thyroid cancer, there is likely nothing that he hasn’t seen. Dr. Clayman left the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in the fall of 2016 to form the Clayman Thyroid Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida If someone is considering surgery, Dr. Clayman discusses important topics, including:  Do not let a doctor operate on you unless the surgeon can prove to you that he/she has done a minimum of 150 annual thyroid surgeries, and for a minimum of ten years.  This means, do not see a surgeon unless he/she has completed a minimum of 1500 thyroid surgeries.  Damage to voice box nerves is preventable, when surgery is done right. 90% of thyroid surgeries done in the U.S. are by doctors doing fewer than fifteen thyroid surgeries per year There is a growing trend of patients being more informed compared to years past Do not rush into a surgery.  Vet your doctor and hospital.  Talk to people and make sure you have selected a skilled surgeon  Surgery is not franchisable, use caution when If a case is too complex, important that a less experienced surgeon seek help from a more experienced surgeon Incomplete surgery is completely unacceptable (persistence of disease) Advice to surgeons, especially less-experienced ones  Other Doctor Thyroid episodes referenced during this interview: The Financial Burden of Thyroid Cancer with Dr. Jonas de Souza from The University of Chicago Medicine The Parathyroid, and a Safer — Less-Scarring Thyroid Surgery with Dr. Babak Larian from Cedars-Sinai A Must Listen Episode Before Getting Surgery – Do Not Do It Alone, with Douglas Van Nostrand from MedStar Washington Hospital SHOW NOTES: Dr. Gary Clayman Thyroid Cancer Overview Book: Atlas of Head and Neck Surgery   Health Grades Zoc Doc The American Thyroid Association
