Your parathyroid glands regulate your blood calcium levels, and when they become overactive, the effects can be significant. Dr Trinh offers minimally invasive surgery that gets you back to feeling well, often with just an overnight stay.
Understanding
Four small glands sit behind your thyroid, each working quietly to keep calcium in balance. When they function well, you never notice. But when one becomes overactive, high calcium levels begin to affect your body.
Recognition
High calcium can creep up slowly. At first, things seem vague. You might feel tired without reason, struggle with constipation, notice your heart beating irregularly, or develop kidney stones. Over time, your bones weaken and fractures can come more easily.
Treatment
We use advanced imaging to pinpoint the problem gland before surgery, allowing us to make a small incision and remove only what needs to go. Once an overactive gland is removed, calcium and energy levels normalise quickly. Most patients feel the difference within days.
What to Expect
Most patients go home after just one overnight stay.
A small incision in a natural neck crease means scars heal beautifully.
No need to return for stitch removal. They fade away on their own.
Most patients return to light activities within a week.
