World Class Thyroid and
Parathyroid Surgeon in Fayetteville, Arkansas

Grant Thyroid Surgery offers advanced, minimally invasive procedures for thyroid, parathyroid, and related head and neck conditions. From targeted surgeries like hemi-thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy to comprehensive thyroid cancer surgery, each treatment is designed to maximize safety, preserve function, and support a smooth recovery.

Hemi-thyroidectomy involves the removal of one lobe of the thyroid gland and is often recommended for solitary thyroid nodules or localized disease. This helps preserve your natural thyroid function and may eliminate the need for lifelong hormone replacement therapy.

This targeted procedure removes a single overactive parathyroid gland through a small incision. Using specialized imaging and nerve-monitoring technology, Dr. Grant performs the surgery with minimal tissue disruption, allowing most patients to return home the same day.

Ideal for select patients with small thyroid nodules or early-stage thyroid cancer, this technique allows removal of the thyroid through a much smaller incision than traditional surgery. Dr. Grant uses state-of-the-art visualization to ensure safety and optimal outcomes.

When cancer spreads to the lymph nodes in the neck, a neck dissection may be necessary. Dr. Grant tailors the procedure based on the extent and location of the disease, preserving vital structures wherever possible to maintain neck function while effectively treating cancer.

Parathyroidectomy involves removing one or more parathyroid glands when they become enlarged. Dr. Grant performs this surgery with meticulous attention to anatomy, helping patients regain healthy calcium levels and preserving long-term bone and kidney health.

Parotidectomy is the removal of all or part of the parotid gland to treat tumors or chronic infections. As the facial nerve passes through this gland, Dr. Grant uses nerve-monitoring and meticulous techniques to remove the tumor while preserving facial function.

Selective neck dissection targets only the lymph node levels at risk, preserving key structures like nerves, muscles, and blood vessels. This approach minimizes functional and cosmetic side effects while still offering effective treatment for head and neck cancers.

In a total thyroidectomy, the entire thyroid gland is removed—typically for cancer, large goiters, or multinodular disease—to ensure long-term disease control. Dr. Grant performs this surgery with exceptional care to avoid injury to the vocal cords and parathyroid glands.
