My Honest Review of Dr. Michael Yeh and my Thyroid Surgery Experience at UCLA

13:12
 
Share
 

I share my personal journey with thyroid surgery performed by Dr. Michael Yeh at UCLA. I break down what happened before, during, and after my surgery for a small thyroid nodule that was diagnosed as papillary thyroid cancer.

Learn about the devastating complications I experienced, including vocal cord damage requiring an implant and nerve damage affecting my shoulder.

I discuss important research showing that many thyroid cancers don't require immediate surgery, including a Finnish cadaver study and Dr. Miyauchi's 30-year watch-and-wait approach in Kobe, Japan.

After my experience, I've interviewed over 100 thyroid specialists worldwide for my Dr. Thyroid podcast and discovered many alternatives to surgery.

This episode also covers UCLA's lack of response to my complications and how medical institutions protect doctors through reputation management. If you've been diagnosed with thyroid cancer or nodules, please research all your options, including active surveillance and ablation, before rushing into surgery.

Spanish captions available - subtítulos en español disponibles.
