Your Non-Surgical Solution on the Treasure Coast
If you live in Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Fort Pierce, or Vero Beach and have been diagnosed with a thyroid nodule, the decision you make next is crucial. At the Diabetes, Thyroid & Hormone Center of the Treasure Coast, you have access to Dr. Ahmet Ergin, a leading thyroid specialist with over a decade of experience and the only expert in the region performing Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for thyroid nodules.
What is Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for Thyroid Nodules?
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure that uses precisely targeted heat to shrink benign (non-cancerous) thyroid nodules. It’s a state-of-the-art technique that offers significant advantages for the right patient.
This is an outpatient procedure performed right in the office, meaning:
- No general anesthesia
- No surgical scars
- No hospital stay required
If you’ve been told that surgery is your only option, it’s time to think again. RFA is transforming thyroid care, especially for individuals who:
- Want to avoid surgery or lifelong thyroid hormone replacement.
- Suffer from symptomatic nodules that cause trouble swallowing, a visible bulge in the neck, or voice changes.
- Are considered poor surgical candidates or simply want a faster recovery.
