Endocrine and Thyroid Cancer Care and Treatment Program

UPMC Hillman Cancer Center is home to a team of endocrine cancer experts committed to excellence in patient care. We work closely to review your specific case and design a treatment plan tailored to fit your unique needs.

Our multidisciplinary treatment methods may include genetic testing for multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) and von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndromes.

We also offer genetic counseling and education about these disorders. And, we're happy to provide disease management guidance to your other doctors as well.

Leaders in Endocrine Cancer Research

Our surgeons and scientists are also leaders in clinical research in the field of endocrine surgery. We established or verified many of the endocrine surgery techniques and care standards in use today.

Our scholarly publications allow us to share our knowledge with colleagues around the world.

Same-Day Diagnoses for Thyroid Cancer

Because early diagnosis can lead to better results, the Multidisciplinary Thyroid Center at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center speeds up the process.

You can often see the specialists you need to see and receive thyroid cancer testing on the same day. And, we strive to provide a same-day diagnosis.

The center includes experts in:

  • Diagnostic imaging
  • Endocrine surgery
  • Medical endocrinology
  • Medical oncology
  • Ear, nose, and throat/Voice Center subspecialists
  • Pathology

You also have access to novel molecular diagnostic testing of thyroid nodules and tissues, along with cutting-edge clinical trials.
