Procedures offered are:
- Thyroid surgery: Hemi-thyroidectomy; total thyroidectomy for cancers, benign goiters; Neck dissections for thyroid cancers; minimal access thyroidectomy
- Parathyroid surgery: minimal invasive parathyroidectomy, bilateral neck dissection for parathyroidectomy, sub-total parathyroidectomy, total parathyroidectomy with auto-transplantation
