Doctor Thyroid

In this interview with Dr. Emad Kandil, a leading expert in thyroid ablation, patient Elizabeth shares her journey of receiving conflicting medical advice regarding her thyroid nodule. After consultations with multiple doctors in New York who recommended surgery, Elizabeth sought an alternative in New Orleans with Dr. Kandil, who offered a less invasive option—thyroid ablation. This video explores the benefits of microwave ablation (MWA) as an effective treatment for thyroid nodules, avoiding the complications of surgery and long-term medication dependency. Dr. Kandil provides in-depth insights into the procedure, its success rates, and how it preserves thyroid function, challenging the traditional approach of immediate surgical intervention. For those with suspicious thyroid nodules, this discussion highlights the importance of seeking second opinions and understanding all available treatment options before making a decision.
