Endocrine Procedures

When your endocrine system isn't working right and surgery is needed, we can help.

Your endocrine system is a complex network of glands that produces the hormones that control many of the most important functions of your body. These hormones affect your metabolism, energy level, reproductive system, growth and development, and your body’s response to injury and stress.

If you are suffering from an endocrine disorder, you can trust the surgeons at Rutland Regional to provide the treatment you need to help your body’s systems function effectively — so you can feel better, faster.

Our surgeons have extensive training and experience in treating patients with endocrine conditions such as:

Thyroid cancer
Benign thyroid disorders, including goiter and nodules
Parathyroid disease
Adrenal disorders
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1/2A/2B
Pancreatic disorders

Thyroid Cancer

This is an abnormal growth of cells in your thyroid, a butterfly-shaped gland. Your thyroid is located in the base of your neck. The hormones it produces help regulate your metabolism, heart rate, blood pressure and body temperature.

Personalized Care

Your surgeon will conduct a thorough evaluation of your condition and recommend the most effective treatment plan tailored to meet your individual needs. Because your comfort is our priority, our endocrine and surgical specialists use minimally invasive techniques whenever possible to get you back on your feet sooner.

Our surgeons can perform some of the diagnostic endocrine procedures in a convenient, relaxed office setting. Office-based procedures include:

Ultrasound
Fine needle aspiration
Ultrasound-guided biopsies
Advanced molecular testing of thyroid nodules

They work closely with surgeons and physicians in other specialty areas, including ear, nose and throat (ENT) and endocrinology, to deliver the comprehensive care you need, close to home.
