Thyroid Surgeon in Hollywood, FL
Hollywood sits closer to this practice than any city in Florida. Dr. Jason S. Cohen, MD, FACS, a board certified surgical oncologist devoted entirely to thyroid and parathyroid surgery and fellowship trained at Cedars-Sinai, consults from his Aventura office fifteen to twenty minutes south of the Broadwalk.
The Closest City to a Rare Kind of Practice
From the Lakes to Hollywood Hills to Emerald Hills, the trip is barely a trip: Federal Highway or I-95 south into Aventura, fifteen to twenty minutes door to door. For once the most specialized option in the region is also the nearest one.
Practices devoted exclusively to the thyroid and parathyroid glands are rare in any state. Dr. Cohen built his over two decades in Los Angeles and now consults from Aventura, reading your imaging personally and examining you without a clock running.
He is licensed to practice and operate in Florida, and the office confirms your surgical facility once your date is set. At this distance, telehealth is a convenience rather than a necessity, though it remains available for follow up.

What Comes Down From the 33019 and 33021
The neighborhood mix: nodules found on imaging and parked for months, calcium running high through years of physicals, goiters the beach made visible, and thyroid cancers deserving an oncologic surgeon from the first decision.
Retirees make up a large share, and the parathyroid story matters most for them: high calcium plus fatigue plus thinning bone is routinely misread as aging, and it is frequently one curable gland.
Told your calcium is just a little high, again? Fifteen minutes settles whether it is a parathyroid problem. Call 310-986-3359.
Gentle Surgery, Verified Cures
Focused parathyroid surgery through a small incision, with hormone levels verified during the operation, suits older patients particularly well: short anesthesia, same or next day discharge, cure confirmed before closing.
Thyroid operations run the same discipline: continuous nerve monitoring, magnified dissection, incisions inside natural creases, robotic technique where anatomy favors it.
