Looking for help in finding a skilled surgeon to perform the MIRP surgery on my parathyroid in OK or TX
Loading...
I just had surgery with Dr Parikh in Atlanta ga on 1/18/13 . I had no choice for surgeons because for me it was price.
He saved me about $5500 as I have no insurance. He was very confident and the surgery went as expected I flew home the next morning. I am feeling better everyday. I can't wait to see how I feel in 6 months as I was in bad shape
had kidney stones, chest pain, could not sleep, mental fog and so much more. Bone pain went away immediately, muscle pain is taking longer but improving. 10 days after surgery my brain fog lifted and overall feeling much better. I highly recomend Dr Parikh.

Hi,
My name is Barb and I am also looking for a surgeon in the Wilkes-Barre,Scranton area that does mini parathyroid surgery. Just wondering if you found a doctor in this general area or did you end up going to Hershey? Could you please email me as to who you did go to and how was your experience.
It makes me very nervous thinking about what could go wrong with this operation. Wondering if I really want to go through with it.
Thank you for any information you can give me.

Dr Parikh is a very skilled surgeon at MIRP. He charged me $6500 I put it on a credit card. This is a very e easy surgery when you pick a skilled surgeon that does as many as he does.

I consulted with Dr. Kennedy in person and he did charge a consult fee. I determined to go with Dr. Parikh in Atlanta instead.

Dr. Parikh did my surgery on May 17, and I am very, very pleased with the results so far. I highly recommend him.

somewhere around 11,000... that's if everything goes smoothly and they just find parathyroid disease. I'm sure a physician will work with you if you are without insurance. Hope this helps. The scans can be costly.. So, if you have elevated PTH and elevated calcium, try to skip a scan because the surgeon will order that the morning of surgery whether you have had one or not. I am five days post op. Doing pretty good. Had one gland removed that had adenoma. I'm just now coming around. Suffered from fatigue and all the other symptoms.. My PTH dropped from 94 to 24 in the operating room.

I am 5 days post op with surgery from Dr. Kennedy here in Atlanta. I reside in Atlanta, so convenient. I am doing quite well and found him to be skilled and precise. I also have a barely visible incision. My PTH dropped from 94 to 24 during surgical removal of one affected gland. I took one Loritab the evening after surgery.. Throat sore from intubation. Other than that not a thing. His office staff is extremely helpful and very nice. The hospital is small and very nice. They keep you very informed of everything. I arrived at 6am. Had scan done at 7am. This lasted 20 min. total , four sets of five min scans. then taken to surgical holding area.. Surgery at 9am. Home by 1:30. Dr. Kennedy showed me a picture of the affected gland in recovery. So, all is good ..
Hope this helps some of you..

I am five days post op with Dr. John Kennedy in Atlanta. I am doing well . Had one affected gland. I have small incision and will not need to go back. I am doing follow up with endocrinologist. Dr. Kennedy has a great staff as well if you have questions. I had scan at 7, surgery at 9, was home at 1:30 pm. I live 45 minutes from hospital that is located in Decatur Ga. Hope this helps. I do have insurance so I cannot answer financials on if you are not covered.
Best of luck.. Hope this helps for surgeons who perform MIRP..

Dr. Dale Liechty, Littleton
Dr. Robert McIntyre, Jr., Aurora
Dr. Christopher Raeburn, Aurora
Dr. Kimberly Vanderveen, Denver

Trista Did you end up finding Dr Parikhs website ? I have forgotten the website since my computer crashed, but I think his name is Shatule (spelling) Parikh. In Canton Ga

Although not necessarily specifically located in East Central Florida, there are at least one dozen listings on the AAES's surgeon finder list.
