Some issues Dr. Joseph M. Scianna, MD can help you with:

Thyroid Surgery

Thyroid surgery is a procedure to remove all or part of the thyroid gland. The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland in the lower neck that regulates the hormones that manage metabolism. Thyroid surgery, also known as thyroidectomy, treats thyroid disorders such as hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), goiters (noncancerous thyroid inflammation), and thyroid cancer. It may also be used to remove thyroid nodules or cysts that have a risk of becoming cancerous.

Both hypothyroidism and goiters are caused by an autoimmune reaction where the body produces antibodies that attack the thyroid cells for unknown reasons. The thyroid reacts by releasing too little or too much T3 and T4 thyroid hormones, impairing thyroid function and causing irregular metabolism. Goiters develop from the autoimmune reaction causing continued antibody damage to the thyroid over time. Thyroid goiters are large, swollen lumps that can be felt near the base of the neck. Obstructive goiters can cause pain, coughing, and abnormal breathing. Hypothyroidism may also be caused by iodine deficiency, as iodine is needed to produce thyroid hormones.

The exact cause of thyroid cancer and thyroid nodules or cysts is unknown. While thyroid cancer and thyroid nodules or cysts can occur in individuals with thyroid disorders, they are not associated with a malfunctioning thyroid.

Physicians may prescribe thyroid surgery if blood tests reveal patients' thyroid stimulating hormones (TSA) are outside of the acceptable range, indicating a malfunctioning thyroid. Thyroid biopsies (tissue samples) and tests for thyroid-attacking antibodies are also criteria for surgery.

An ENT or general surgeon performs thyroid surgery. While a patient is placed under anesthesia, the surgeon makes an incision at the center of the neck and removes the thyroid gland. Two alternative methods of thyroid surgery are transoral (incision through the mouth) and endoscopic, where a surgeon operates a video camera for live footage to help guide the removal process.

Thyroid surgery requires minimal aftercare. Most patients recover quickly and resume normal activities within a few days of surgery. However, thyroid surgery patients must take daily synthetic thyroid medication (levothyroxine) for life to replace their removed thyroid.

BEWARE-Horrible and Not Trustworthy in any shape or form. Good luck on calling this location and actually contacting someone within this office. Huge lack of communication and massive problem with scheduling. This Doctor acts as a middle man from his front desk people and attempt to be nurses.

Arrived in location of my specified appointment and was told I did not have appointment at all. This was hilariously entertaining as I had their card with written time and date on it. Silence from behind the counter as all three women behind counter had nothing to say, but then I was out of no where rejected and stated they had no time slotted to see me at all. Angered as I traveled all the way from Rockford area to be seen for my major health issue. I asked for a supervisor and I was told there is not a supervisor within this office. And, I spoke loud then stated let me speak with the Doctor in charge now.

After having a seat for a estimated 20+ minutes a women ask me to go lower her into a room and stated your doctor will be in a few minutes. They stated what was the problem I was having and I explained everything in detail and they never apologized for the major lack of work professional work ethic. They responded with we will look into it and I will be contacted asap to resolve the problem and asked me to step up and set another date.
These people and location is major need of revamping from Human Resources and individuals need to be let go.

There is no excuse for any of this action and lack of assistance for healthcare. This, crazy lack of wanting to assist a patient in need. I walked right past the front desk even with them asking me to set another appointment. I would never take advise or be treated by this location ever. This doctor and location is a Utter Disgrace to the healthcare profession of Northwestern.

Now, I’m sure someone will pop out of nowhere and ask me to contact them on this review and they will try to be politically correct in an attempt to cover up this situation. But, there is nothing anyone from this location could say to resolve the lack of educated work ethic within this office. There is nothing but individuals filling a seat to collect a pay check only. Very sad and horrible.

Beware
