Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 1,275 Likes: 7 | Here in Toronto, Canada, thyroid cancer is not necessarily treated in the Head and Neck Clinic. My friend was treated by an ENT and had surgery. My husband’s thyroid condition was followed, not by his MO, but by the endocrinologist in another hospital. The MO said she did not know enough about the thyroid to be treating that as well. I’m afraid the division is so fine that one ends up being followed by different doctors in different departments in different hospitals. Maybe the doctors treating Debby can consult with each other.
