Surgery at Memorial Cures Phyllis of Hyperparathyroidism
Phyllis had a lump on her thyroid, so she visited R. Mack Harrell, MD, endocrinologist, and David Bimstom, MD, endocrine surgeon, at Memorial Healthcare System.
She also had elevated calcium levels and a history of kidney stones. A neck ultrasound confirmed she had hyperparathyroidism.
A simple, outpatient surgery removed Phyllis’ abnormal parathyroid gland and she was cured immediately.
