Thyroid Surgeon in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Fort Lauderdale sits closer to this practice than either Miami or Palm Beach. Dr. Jason S. Cohen, MD, FACS, a board certified surgical oncologist devoted to thyroid and parathyroid surgery and fellowship trained at Cedars-Sinai, consults from his Aventura office twenty five to thirty five minutes south down I-95 or Federal Highway.
Broward’s Shortest Route to a Dedicated Thyroid Practice
From Victoria Park and Coral Ridge to Las Olas and the beach, Fort Lauderdale findings surface the usual ways: an ultrasound ordered off Federal Highway, calcium flagged at an annual physical, a biopsy that needs interpretation rather than a verdict. The specialist read now sits one county line south.
I-95 south to Ives Dairy Road, or Federal Highway straight down through Hollywood and Hallandale, reaches the Aventura office in twenty five to thirty five minutes from most of the city. Telehealth covers the consultations that never needed a car, from Wilton Manors to Plantation.
Dr. Cohen reviews the imaging personally, examines you at the Aventura visit, and gives the recommendation with its reasoning. He is licensed to practice and operate in Florida, and the office confirms your surgical facility once your date is set.
The Full Practice, One County South
Fort Lauderdale patients access all six of Dr. Cohen’s service lines.
Thyroid & Parathyroid Surgery
Thyroidectomy, lobectomy, and focused parathyroid operations with nerve monitoring throughout.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Small, carefully placed incisions and faster recoveries wherever the diagnosis allows.
Surgical Oncology
Fellowship trained cancer surgery, from thyroid malignancies to complex tumors.
Robotic Surgery
Da Vinci robotic technique for precision in confined anatomy, adopted early by Dr. Cohen.
Breast Cancer Surgery
Oncologic breast surgery from the former director of the Cedars-Sinai surgical oncology and breast clinic.
General Surgery
Advanced laparoscopic general surgery, handled with the same specialist standards.
What Comes Down From Broward
The mix: nodules awaiting a surgical read, thyroid cancers in working adults and retirees alike, goiters the boating life made visible, and hyperparathyroidism announced by kidney stones or a slipping bone density scan.
For the boating crowd the recovery questions are specific, when the incision can take spray and sun, when hauling lines resumes, and they get specific answers with dates.
A kidney stone and high calcium in the same year? That pairing usually has one curable cause. Call 310-986-3359.
Two Decades of Standards, Newly Local
Continuous nerve monitoring in every operation, magnified dissection, robotic technique where anatomy favors it, and hormone verification during parathyroid surgery, confirming the cure before closing.
Operations stay as small as the disease permits, incisions sit in natural creases, and sun exposure guidance is part of the discharge plan in this climate.
