About Melbourne Parathyroid Centre

Melbourne Parathyroid Centre is a service dedicated to the surgical management of hyperparathyroidism

After years of specialised training, and dedicated endocrine surgery practice, we have established a “super-specialised” parathyroid service. We will provide you with the best chance of surgical cure, with minimum chance of complications.  

We aim to make you confident in our expertise, and give you a positive experience from initial consultation through to follow up post -surgery.

We regularly attend international and domestic conferences, keep in contact with overseas colleagues and stay abreast of new technologies, developments and techniques.

We are actively involved in the education and training of the next generation of parathyroid surgeons through University of Melbourne affiliated public hospitals.

You can expect to receive personalised and considerate care.

We provide expertise in: 

  • Confirmation of the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism
  • Office-based ultrasound to assess both the parathyroid glands and the thyroid 
  • Access to state-of-the-art localisation imaging studies performed by specialised radiologists with whom we have a close working relationship, but no financial interest
  • Best-Practice Surgery and post-operative management for patients with hyperparathyroidism
  • Minimally Invasive Parathyroidectomy, when it is possible and best for you
