Doctors at ٺƵ’s Thyroid Program are internationally recognized leaders in providing innovative, supportive, and expert care to people who have thyroid disease. The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland that sits right where the knot of a necktie would be and produces hormones that control your metabolism, growth, and development.
At the Forefront of Care
We were the first in New York City to offer radiofrequency ablation to treat large, noncancerous thyroid nodules and are among the first in the U.S. to use the technology to treat some small thyroid cancers.
New Ablative Therapy
We are the first in the New York State area to offer innovative nanosecond pulsed field ablation to treat thyroid nodules.
Innovative Treatments
ٺƵ is one of only a few medical centers in the United States to offer thyroid artery embolization as an alternative to surgery to treat extremely large goiters.
Leaders in the Field
Members of our team are among the founders of the North American Society for Interventional Thyroidology, which has pioneered the use of nonsurgical thyroid procedures.
Our team of doctors includes endocrinologists, surgeons, radiologists, interventional neurosurgeons, radiation and medical oncologists, and pathologists. Together, we treat a wide variety of thyroid conditions, including thyroid nodules and all types of thyroid cancer. We also treat hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.
We offer a full spectrum of care, from the diagnosis of thyroid nodules to the newest interventional, minimally invasive treatments that are not widely available at other institutions.
Our doctors were among the first in the United States to offer three interventional, nonsurgical approaches to care: radiofrequency ablation (RFA), thyroid artery embolization, and nanosecond pulsed field ablation, or nsPFA. Our doctors are also experts in ethanol (alcohol) ablation of thyroid cysts.
These interventional endocrinology procedures can reduce or eliminate scarring and help preserve healthy thyroid tissue, avoiding hypothyroidism, which is common following thyroid surgery. Interventional procedures are an excellent alternative to surgery for appropriately selected patients.
In cases where conventional open surgery is required, our experts evaluate patients to identify opportunities to use advanced techniques that help to minimize visible scarring.
Our experts partner with you to create care plans tailored to your needs, providing the right treatment at the right time. From education about treatment options to creating seamless treatment plans that reduce the number of appointments needed, we support your individual healthcare goals.
Whether you require a watchful waiting approach for a thyroid nodule, active surveillance of small thyroid cancers—which means watching closely without surgery—medications, an interventional procedure, or surgery, our specialists provide you with the highest quality of care. We thoughtfully combine new and evolving techniques in our care plans and offer patients access to innovative treatments.
Our doctors are leaders in minimally invasive treatments for thyroid nodules and cancers.
