@perry1,

I was living in the SF Bay Area at the time and I don’t remember who the surgeon was. It was at a major medical center with a department specializing in thyroid surgery for cancer. My policy is to always seek at the best surgeon for surgery, even if I have to pay out of pocket or travel.

Also, my Coronary Calcium scored decreased from 199 to 18. The surgery helped plus taking vitamin K2 to help deposit calcium in my senior bones instead of in my heart. My home cardiologist said the Vitamin K2, not K1, was ok for me to take. And my vitamin D level is now 65; it was only 13 when I had the surgery.

Best of luck to you.
