Guest guest Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I used Dr. Don Quast. He is an older surgeon who specializes in heart surgery. He was recommended by another surgeon who I highly respect. He operates at Women's Hospital and Park Plaza. I had my FNA yesterday morning. I still hurt but ice and Tylenol arehelping. The radiologist said three days for pathology but the doctor said up to seven days because of Christmas.I wanted to get feedback on surgeon's for thyroidectomy in Houston. I justwant to have a list to work with if that is the next step. I'm justlooking for some one to remove, my doctor(GP) can issue thyroid replacement, labs and any tests.Thanks,KateHashi'sAS------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
