Thyroid Nodule Assessment Program

A thyroid nodule is an abnormal growth of thyroid cells that forms a lump within the thyroid gland. Thyroid nodules are very common. Most of them are noncancerous (benign). A few may contain thyroid cancer and may require treatment.

We offer a comprehensive Thyroid Nodule Assessment Program for people who want to have a thyroid nodule evaluated closely. We will determine a personalized care plan for you. Some people may have surgery for thyroid nodules or thyroid cancer, but others won’t need to. We may recommend active surveillance to some patients.
