A member asked:

In asking quest on site and resrch i been made aware experienced surgeon is key to parathyroidectomy. how many surgeries should dr have done in a wk?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not a common conditi: Parathyroid problems are uncommon. So you have to be realistic and not be looking for anyone who does such surgery every week. I will be happy if you found a surgeon who does one in a month or even one in every 2 months.
