About this service

Head and neck surgery procedures that an Otolaryngologist performs include neck dissection, surgery for neck lumps, parotid surgery, submandibular gland surgery and procedures for thyroid and parathyroid.

Throat surgery procedures performed by an Ear Nose and Throat Specialist include tonsillectomy, thyroplasty — surgery for vocal cord palsy — and surgery for vocal cord nodules using laser laryngeal surgery.

People often discover that they have a thyroid disorder after they begin experiencing a variety of symptoms, such as difficulty swallowing, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, sudden weight loss, or feelings of anxiety. If you experience a few of these signs, it is worth scheduling an appointment with a specialist who can perform a thorough examination.
