Parathyroid Surgery Guide for Positive User Reviews
✓ Norman Parathyroid CenterI am incredibly impressed with the highest level of service and the skill of my surgeon! I’m writing this on the very same day I’ve had a 2 cm parathyroid tumor removed. Feel pretty amazing with only some minimal neck discomfort. My issue went undiagnosed for years and am glad to have finally treated the cause and not the symptom..Version: 1.0.7
✓ App allowed self referralI have been so sick. Look at the list of symptoms and I had 14-15 of them. But, I needed this APP to collect the blood work and Dexa scan information to put the data to work. I input all of my data that I collected from my 19 + years of doctor and lab reports. Without this APP I had nothing but a box of reports. After I looked at all of the graphs that are made from the data I input, I was able to make a data driven decision about what the next step was to a healthy life. This application also has many tools to understand this disease and the process to get better. I was able to use this application and my results to look at the years of sickness and post operation blood work results as well. This app was the best money I have ever spent. Additionally this was a life changing app for me..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Best thing ever!!!This app is the best thing I’ve ever seen! Seriously!! ANY question you could think of is addressed - and all of the information shared is written plainly and often with humor. You MUST download this app if you are anticipating Parathyroid Surgery! And you also MUST strongly consider making a trip to Tampa to come to the Norman Parathyroid Center for this operation. It will truly be the best decision for your wellbeing!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ I was slowly falling apart.I knew there was something wrong with me for a couple of years, but couldn’t put my finger on it. That ended in August, 2022. My blood results showed my calcium at 10.6. My physician suspected hyperthyroidism and recommended the Norman Parathyroid Center. I did my research and for me, it was a easy decision we’re I was going. I had my consultation with Dr. Rhodes the end of January, 2023. He then sent me a detailed report on my condition, and I read about his credentials. Afterwards, l felt very confident I was in good hands. Had the surgery on March 2, 2023 and the whole process went very smoothly! I felt great after the surgery, and did a hour swim workout 5 days later with no ill effects. I am very grateful for the Norman Parathyroid Center, Doctor Rhodes and the Nursing Staff!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Answered every question I had!This is a vital app! It didn’t matter what time of the day or night a question popped into my mind - I just went to the app and there was the answer. Clear, simple, easy to understand. I never had to make a call to a doctor or nurse, because this app has all the answers. Thank you for doing this for your patients!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Absolutely Wonderful!!This app is well designed. I knew exactly what to expect every day leading up to, the day of, and days after my parathyroid surgery. The only thing this app needs is a checklist page. Overall, this app is something that all surgeons should utilize for their surgery specialty. This app put my mind at ease and answered all my questions. I highly recommend this app and the Hospital for Endocrine Surgery in Tampa. Dr. Norman and his team are the best at what they do..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Extremely HelpfulI am so very grateful for this app. I read it completely which gave me a tremendous amount of confidence going into surgery. I then found myself re-reading parts of it the day or two following surgery, just as a refresher for parts that I had forgotten or needed a further understanding of. Thanks again..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Great source of informationBeing an older woman who was not very excited about having surgery, this ap gave me information, and hope that this experience might not be as bad as I was imagining. It is written in layman’s terms with just about every topic discussed before you even become a patient. The only two things I wish it had more information about are who has to get intubation with anesthesia, and why the wound would itch so much after the operation..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Amazing appThis app by the Norman Parathyroid Center is very thorough and intelligently organized. Answers every question before and after surgery for parathyroid adenoma surgery. It is like having a nurse or doctor coach you through your pre-op and post-op time. I am a nurse and refer to it frequently as I am healing from surgery by one of their excellent surgeons..Version: 1.0.7
✓ The HELP that keeps on HELPING!This app is indispensable if parahyperthyroidism is ever a factor in your life. When you see the app’s high ratings, they are for real. The app will remain as a reference on my phone forever. I am only 2 1/2 months away from my surgery, and I am blown away by how many doctors and trained medical people just do not have knowledge about this situation. I sleuthed out my own diagnosis, submitted my medical records and labs for the previous 5 years to NPC, and fortunately stopped the ‘bone drain’ at osteopenia. Thank you Norman Parathyroid Center for the education, the cure, and the app!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Fabulous Medical Team & AppThis medical team is amazing!!! My husband had surgery there in Tampa, and I have to say that we have never felt so tended to and cared for. The entire medical team were helpful in every way possible, eager to answer any questions we had and covered everything from A to Z in this app. It covered all of our questions and then some. We couldn’t have had a more pleasant experience! I would recommend them highly!!!.Version: 1.0.6
✓ ExcellentThorough, comprehensive and extremely helpful app..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Unbelievable!For years my high PTH has been out of normal range, I’ve developed A-fib and low energy, exhaustion etc. “Take more Calcium, you’re getting older, it’s you A -fib.” etc..... I was told. One day after removal of a large tumor by the greats team of parathyroid surgeons, doctors, nurses, along with receptionists, technical staff and even a highly skilled Valet Parking team. First time I ever had my car at the Front door at a hospital ! This app was great! You have created a great app. Rather explain it I give the website to enjoy. I’m recommending to everyone who wants to know “”what is PTH?” Or “what is a parathyroid?”.... Congratulations to those who developed this APP ..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Empowering patientsThis app is comprehensive and as a future patient with a surgery scheduled this coming week I feel very well apprised as to what to expect. I am very grateful for all the hard work and even a little humor that was put into it. Thank you Norman Parathyroid Center!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ 10 years of pain and deteriorating healthI sat in bed and prayed for help and googled high calcium (my latest ongoing problem.). The first thing I found was Dr Norman telling the hyperparathyroid disease symptoms and the great news of the Norman Parathyroid Center. I called my husband in and we began to set the process in motion. I flew from Dallas,TX to Tampa,Fl for my surgery. I am 5 days post-op and have less pain then I have had in years. I can eat normal again. God blessed me with Dr. Norman and his team of surgeons. My my surgeons were Dr Mitchell, Dr. Boone and Dr. Norman. They will always be in my prayers and everyone I love will learn about this disease whether they want to or not. Thank you to this incredible team, including every nurse and staff member. I had 2 tumors and 2 good glands. My thyroid had been treated with Radioactive iodine in 1991 and it was examined as well. This is not just a job for these doctors. It is a mission and they do beautiful surgery. This app helps you stay on task with the doctors instructions. It is great..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Saved meFor almost a year I had battled with lack of interest, depression, hypertension, body aches and pains,RA, vertigo, kidney stones and Mini stroke. A handful of doctors treated each symptom separately but to no avail. One however did notice that my calcium was high and this led me to do my own research. I found Norman Parathyroid Center in Tampa. I realized I was dealing with parathyroid disease. From the time I emailed them up until my surgery on Feb 24,2022 I had nothing but exceptional care. From administrators, Nicole and Pam to Kimberly scheduling my surgery to Dr Luke Watkins (surgeon) calling me and answering any questions And he diagnosed my primary hyperthyroidism. I used one of the recommended hotels with limo service to hospital, greeted by wonderful staff and nurses Alexandria and Mariah. NeeNee in radiology to Sharon in Anesthesia and my operating nurses It was WORLD CLASS treatment. Dr Carling surgeon performed the surgery (removed a tumor and in total two glands) and called me that night to see how I was doing. This isn’t a surgery you can trust anyone to do. They do this surgery all day long. I cannot thank them enough for this exceptional care. I feel great the lack of interest a depression gone, less body aches and I have more energy, no problems with vertigo to date. I expect a full recovery and getting my life back. THANK YOU NORMAN PARATHYROID CENTER.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Norman Parathyroid Center and App are the bestI had high calcium as far back as electronic records in my healthcare facility go. Probably longer. Multiple kidney stones and regularly passed “gravel”. Severe headaches. High bp. Stomach acid issues. More. No one noticed high calcium despite (!) on every test result. Even treatment by urologist with 24 urine testing didn’t pick up on it! Finally, new PCP noticed and diagnosed hyperparathyroidism. Needless to say, I wasn’t going to trust this facility with my ongoing care (despite pcp diagnosis). Began my own research and found Norman Center. Their response to my situation was phenomenal. Between the helpful phone conversations and the APP, I decided to travel to Florida for surgery. Long story a little longer, I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. They treated my wife and me like royalty. Surgery and follow up went smoothly. I am now close to two years post. Headaches, gone. Gravel, gone. Calcium, normal. Working on weaning off bp meds. To say I’m happy with Norman Center would be a big understatement. These folks save a big chunk of the quality of my life. I highly recommend them. And the APP is wonderful for all things Parathyroid. I have recommended it to many others..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Norman Parathyroid institute app is fantasticThe app for Norman Parathyroid institute is absolutely wonderful. Every question you have is right there answered . It is s easy to navigate and takes the anxiety away. I referred to it time and time again. What a fantastic app to offer their patients..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Relief finallyThese doctors are the best for hyperparathyroid problems. Their hospital is beautiful and very clean. Plenty of staff all of which are very professional and supportive. I elected to go alone and they could not have been more attentive and kind. Made me feel comfortable and decrease my anxiety immensely. I would definitely recommend this place and their doctors to anyone with this problem..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Amazing AppI used this app before and after surgery. Highly recommend using it to guide you through the process. It is easy to use and all of the information is in one place..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Made My Wife a BelieverAfter experiencing my first kidney stone and some routine lab work, my primary care physician told me she thought their might be a problem with my parathyroid and referred me to a local endocrinologist. Upon googling, parathyroid and coming across the Norman Center’s website, I told my wife (a nurse) that if I was to need something done that I thought we should go to Tampa. She was skeptical, but after reviewing the website, doing her own research, and reviewing the app, she was convinced that the Norman Center was the only place to go. Now, 3 days post-op, I am convinced if I would have gone elsewhere, I would not be cured and would have had to end up going to the Norman Center after a unsuccessful surgery elsewhere! Dr. Lopez and the whole staff were exceptional and I would gladly tell anyone with hyperparathyroidism to not look elsewhere!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Amazing, lifesaving Ap!I've worked for 20+ years as a Medical Social Worker, but I have never seen this kind of information and guidance given to patients about their diagnosis...how to prepare for surgery...what to expect during and after surgery etc. Every little detail was anticipated and addressed. When my surgeon phoned me prior to my surgery date to answer my questions, I literally could not think of one, as the Ap had answered them all! This gave me incredible peace of mind going into the surgery and utmost confidence in my medical team! This meets a standard of excellence rarely achieved in health care!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Excellent appThis was my “go to” source of information during the whole process of treatment. Well organized, accessible, accurate. Answered most of my questions. Helpful for family members. An integral component of the wonderful treatment I receiveD at the Norman Parathyroid Center..Version: 1.0.6
✓ EVERYTHING you need to know is in the appPeople at Norman parathyroid center and Tampa General Hospital know what they’re doing. Read everything in this app and follow the guide. Even under this Covid situation, and coming from another state far away, they made me feel like I was part of their family. You will feel the same. Download this app, and you have nothing to worry about. Follow the instructions. STAY HEALTHY!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Best App Ever!!😊👍👍I’m an 82 year old gal who was very apprehensive about having parathyroid surgery. I like to have as much information as possible when I’m experiencing a new situation. This parathyroid app was amazing!! I referred to it many times pre surgery and post surgery and was very impressed with the quantity and quality of the information and the section that answered every question one could possibly have. Thank you, Norman Parathyroid Center, for having this available for all your patients and their families. It was extremely valuable. Way to go!! 😊.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Parathyroid AppThis app is easy to navigate, answers all questions and is so helpful. If you are a patient or family member you should download this app. It not only serves as an incredible resource but it covers everything from where to park to before, during and after care. Information is communicated in a clear easy to read manner. I think other medical professionals should use this app as a model to inform, educate and take out any of the guess work of surgery. It is clear that a significant amount of time, research and expertise was put into the development of this app. Well done! SMB in RI.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Excellent appExtremely comprehensive, everything you need to know from beginning to end if you or a loved one is going to go through this procedure at NPC. Easy to follow, answers about any question imaginable, and often with humor. Thank you for this beyond helpful tool!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Informative and sprinkles with humorAfter reading the volumes of information on this app, I feel very prepared and ready to undergo this surgery. It is encouraging and uplifting, answers any question you can imagine because it’s already been asked many times over, and the information is explained in easy-to-understand, down to earth English! Whoever wrote these pages also has a sense of humor! I love the Norman Parathyroid Center! Thank you for helping me understand this disease and for getting rid of it!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Terrific, stupendous appI’m 2 weeks post op after having 2 parathyroid tumors removed by Dr. Jamie Mitchell. I used this app prior to my surgery to refer my family to for answers to their questions and I referred to this for all my questions then and still today. This app will give you all the information and guidance you will need. Forever grateful to the Norman Parathyroid Center and Dr. Mitchell and the team there!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Phenomenal experienceI am a physician, and underwent parathyroid surgery just four days ago and feeling great. I underwent surgery last Friday, had two of my parathyroids removed in expert fashion by Dr. Parrack, and was back to work on Monday full-time! It is rare to have an experience these days that exceeds your expectations, particularly in the healthcare field. From my initial contact and communications with the physicians and staff, to the app (personalized in regards to scheduling, super helpful before, during and after) the day of surgery, immediate postoperative care, was very much according to plan in a very comforting systematic yet caring way. I wouldn’t refer a patient or family member anywhere else..Version: 1.0.7
✓ A must have app!I downloaded this app so that I could have as much information at my fingertips as possible. My mom had the surgery and she doesn’t use a cell phone so I have to be her eyes and ears. This app rocks! Very informative in plain English and speaks to everything you can think of asking and things that you don’t think of. It is written on an elementary level so you don’t feel overwhelmed. This app is the best thing that could have happened besides the surgery itself. I was able to answer all of my mom’s concerns and mine. It put us at ease and we did not need to call the surgeon or office staff for anything because we knew what to do and what not to do, what to expect and how to handle any issues because the app addresses them. So glad I downloaded this app and I have not come across any other app that’s so well put together..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Ditto to all the positive reviewsThis app and the whole group at the Parathyroid center should be used as an example for what medical and patient care and communication should look like for all practices. We are so very greatful we were referred by our doctor..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Great App before and after surgeryThis app is wonderful! It answered all the questions I had about before, during, and after surgery instructions. The videos on the app were great. My family also used the app to help understand my disease. The app was easy to navigate and use. Great app!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ App That Actually Has The FactsFrustrated with doctors telling me to monitor my high calcium and that I was too old for surgery, I found the Norman Parathyroid Center App and my life changed dramatically. The app had all the answers in an organized and easy to understand format. I have this app and Dr. Rhodes to thank for finally relieving my symptoms and sending me on a positive path to good health..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Confident band at easeThis app has made me feel at ease. It walked us through every aspect of my upcoming surgery. The detail that has gone into this app is amazing. Typical and not typical questions were answered throughly and sometime with a little humor which I appreciate. I feel confident with the information the app has provided. Looking forward to feeling better!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Awesome TeamThank you for the awesome treatment. Although we do have great care in our city, your team has brought this kind of surgery to a new & highest level. From the first phone call to day 5 after surgery, my expectations have been met and your team exceeded anything I could have imagined. Dr. Politz, was most sincere, kind and his professional warmth really me trust and put us at ease. Dr. Kelly, the anesthesiologist, listened to my previous history and made note and adjusted the medications so that I had no recovery issues at all. The entire team was unbelievable. This clinic should be a prototype of excellence in treating patients in this country and then we’d have no problems with medical treatment in the USA. The website is practical, easy to understand and hilarious!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ HyperparathyroidismI used this app before and after surgery. It gives you all of the information that you need. I would read it multiple times and still find things that were applicable to my progress and my questions. I highly recommend the Norman Parathyroid Center and this app..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Awesome AppThis app covered everything about my procedure. Answered questions I didn’t even think of...I find myself going back to this app at least once a day. I thank The Norman Parathyroid Clinic for caring like they do, I wish all doctors cared this way. God bless and keep you. Best medical experience I have ever had!!!.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Norman Parathyroid clinicI can’t believe what a difference this surgery been to the quality of my daily life. I just love this app as it addresses all the concerns one may have. Recommend this team of caring specialists to all suffering from Hyperparathyroidism. My backache was gone within 6 hours after surgery able to jump out of bed instead adjusting every move. Thank you for all you do . Marion.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Best surgical app ever!I am a nurse practitioner and have had a tumor for 5 years my concierge doc missed and my NP listened and found for me- I thought I was crazy and felt 80yo (I’m 47). I experienced almost everything they described from prepping to post-op. This app and center saved my quality of life and gave me back hope and my naturally adventurous spirit! Thank you-.Version: 1.0.6
✓ This app will reduce your stress by 99.9%There is so much useful information in this app that you will understand everything and more about the entire process that you will be going through ; before, during, and afterwards. You can tell the time, effort, and care that went into building this application. Great job!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Surgery February 5, 2019Had surgery at 10 a.m. today by Dr. Kevin Parrack at the NORMAN Parathyroid Center in Tampa Fl. It is now 9:30 p.m. and I am in no pain or discomfort. I left the center at around 1 p.m. and my daughter drove me both to the center on the day before surgery, and home on the day of surgery. I definitely made the right decision to have my surgery at this facility. I would rate my surgeon a 10. They are all the very best surgeons around. I did a ton of research. Watch all the You Tube videos you can on this disease and treatment. My tumor did not show up on the scan but Dr. Parrack located it immediately. He is the best. Eleanor Sesto. Davie, Fl.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Pre and post parathyroid surgery questions answered!This app provided by Norman Parathyroid Center was such a blessing. All my questions were answered and I felt well prepared and confident for my surgery. I was also able to share the App with my husband to better educate him as well..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Took the stress out of surgeryThis is a great app! Surgery is stressful, not to mention going to a big city half way across the country. (We like rural life) It helped us to prepare for the trip and guided us through every step of surgery day and what to expect afterwards. Top notch! As are the doctors behind it!!! Thank you so very much!!!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ FinallyAfter an unsuccessful parathyroidectomy performed by “the best surgeon in Phoenix” I investigated and researched many surgeons in the United States. I kept coming back to Dr. Jamie Mitchell, the medical director at the Norman Parathyroid Hospital in Tampa Florida. Their approach is to examine all four parathyroid glands. My adenoma was located in a tricky area, which was identified and removed successfully by Dr. Mitchell. I cannot fully express my gratitude to him as well as all the professionals at their state of the art hospital in Tampa. I am on cloud 9 having my symptoms relieved after years of hearing “let’s just watch your calcium levels”. And, yes, we got your tumor, only to find out the first surgeon removed a good parathyroid gland and left the adenoma in place. Thank you Dr. Mitchell, You literally saved my life..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Awesome AppEverything you need to know and MORE! I am scheduled for surgery in 2 weeks. This app is remarkable! It has answers to questions you don’t even know to ask! It covers everything and more!!!! I have read and reread the Norman Parathyroid Center website! So much information far beyond any other websites. Are there any other Parathyroid websites? I didn’t look I immediately stopped at the NPC! And this app to boot!!! You all are awesome! I can’t wait to get there, meet y’all and have my surgery!!! Through this app all of your patients should be better than prepared! I know I am!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ This app is amazing. My Experience even betterI went to the Parathyroid center as a reiteration. A well known teaching hospital took out 1 tumor and left 2 other’s. I knew it for years. I suffered for many years and other things in my body including my heart was affected. They took a chance on me, and found 2 tumors. Other places don’t look for what they can’t see. I was robbed of my health for many years that I will never get back. My advice, don’t even bother with anyone else. Do it with the best of the best the 1st time. You will save your money and you life Sincerely, Teresa Jenkins.Version: 1.0.7
✓ This App is Amazing!The app tells you everything you need to know about your surgery-before surgery, day of surgery and after surgery. I referred to it often. It answered all of my questions. If I forgot what I was told, I could go into the app and find what I needed. It gives a comfort level that is not like anything I have ever encountered. Thank you for this helpful tool..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Parathyroid Surgery GuideThis app is fabulous!!! I used it prior to surgery for a clear understanding of all I was to do to prepare, of what would happen on the day of surgery, and of what to expect afterwards. Then I consulted it daily for the first couple weeks as it guided me through recovery. It’s as if I had the doctor right there to answer all my questions. I love it! Thanks for such a great support!!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ This App Knocks Every App Out Of The Park!Thank you for your concise and easy to read app on everything and more about before, during and after my parathyroid operation. I’m still referring back to this app after a week. Dr. Boone and her staff helped me feel special and allayed all my fears and concerns..Version: 1.0.7
