Generally, these issues arise when the thyroid gland fails to produce the optimal amount of hormones necessary for the body to function properly. By providing specialized consultations, conducting appropriate examinations, and prescribing necessary medications, the clinic assists individuals with thyroid problems in effectively managing their condition. The clinic's services encompass the medical and surgical management of all thyroid disorders.


Open parathyroidectomy: Surgical procedure to remove abnormal parathyroid glands. Open Parathyroidectomy is the traditional treatment of choice in symptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism. Parathyroidectomy cures fatigue and the bone, abdominal, urological, and mental symptoms associated with hypercalcemia.

Polycystic ovaries: Condition characterized by multiple cysts on the ovaries, often associated with hormonal imbalances. 
Osteoporosis: A bone disease characterized by decreased bone density and increased risk of fractures. Obesity: Excessive accumulation of body fat, often associated with various health complications


Hypertension: High blood pressure, a common condition that can lead to various cardiovascular problems and it contributes to 45-50% of deaths due to heart disease and stroke. 15 – 20 % of hypertensive patients have secondary causes like Renal and Endocrine disorders.


Laparoscopic surgery: Minimally invasive surgical technique using small incisions and a camera for visual guidance


Open adrenalectomy: Surgical removal of the adrenal gland through an open approach


Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy: Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) refers to a surgical approach that is focused on identifying and removing a single enlarged parathyroid gland before the operation. This technique, known as focused or targeted parathyroidectomy, may also provide an opportunity to examine the gland on the same side (ipsilateral) under certain circumstances.


Endocrine tumors: Abnormal growths in the endocrine glands includes the thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal glands, pancreas, intestines, and pituitary glands that can affect hormone production
Thyroid nodule excision: Surgical removal of abnormal growths or nodules in the thyroid gland. In cases where a thyroid nodule suspected of being cancerous is present, a lobectomy is utilized as a surgical procedure to remove it. Removing a single lobe instead of both lobes often enables the remaining portion of the thyroid gland to maintain sufficient production of thyroid hormone. 


Growth disorder: Condition characterized by abnormal growth patterns in children or adults.


Pheochromocytoma: Rare tumor of the adrenal gland that can cause excessive production of epinephrine and norepinephrine, hormones that control heart rate, metabolism, and blood pressure.
