I think we caught HPT earlier than the doctors that can't think out of the box would have, and I believe that this operation saved me decades of problems. Thank you, Dr. Mitchell, Deedee, Morgan, Colleen, Shannon, Daryl, Matt, and last but not least Michelle!

Update 1.5 years out: since the procedure. I rechecked my labs a few times. My calcium was fine…read moreeach time, but my pth was slightly low. I was instructed to continue to take calcium for that low lab. I also continued vitamin d since it was trending up but still low. I was worried that I was going to have to take calcium for the rest of my life. But thankfully, my recently pth levels are normal. My vitamin d is finally in the normal range too. It isn't in the optimal normal range but it will get there. I just wanted to share that incase someone freaks out about pth being low after the procedure. So hopefully my labs will stabilize and continue to stay normal. Will update if anything changes. The scar is barely visible too. The incision was made at my natural fold. It healed nicely.

The procedure went very well - no significant pain or discomfort. Both Dr. Hart and his team told me exactly what was happening every step of the way. They told me what to expect for the next 3 days - and I felt exactly how they said it would. Took the wrap and dressing off this morning. There's almost no bruising, can't even see any puncture marks - just some minor swelling. A great result from one of the nicest, most caring and professional team in the Villages. My sincere thanks to the whole team at Vascular Vein Center in the Lake Sumter office.

I have been dealing with skin cancers of every variety since 2008. I had part of my right lung…read moreremoved in 2010, due to a melanoma tumor. My first 7 years of the cancer adventure was at Moffitt in Tampa. When I moved to the Gainesville area, I was nervous about finding someone new, and I called Dr Stoer at G.S.C.C. I could not have made a better choice. Everyone I saw at the place, from techs, to nurses to all the Dr.s, and I saw them all, were great. I had the utmost confidence when I walked in, whether it was for an exam or a procedure, I knew I was in good hands. After 5 years there, a life event moved me to the center of the state, near Orlando, and sent me searching for new care. I have now, in the past year and a half, seen 2 different Dermatologist in that area, and have not been happy with either. I miss the confidence that I used to have walking out of G.S.C.C. A botched skin graft, and now a scary, described treatment for a cancer on my leg has me calling on G.S.C.C. again. I will gladly drive the 160 mile round trip, if Doc Stoer and the crew will let me back in. Live and learn.

He came to my room at the hospital to discuss things and ask a few pertinent questions. I was impressed with his demeanor and warm personality. I asked for his hand. I felt his strength and dedication in those hands. This man is one TOP professional surgeon. I would recommend him to all of my friends and family. When going to see him one week later to remove my drainage tube, I once again was so very impress with him. He took a lot of time with me, answering question for me, asking question from me. I'm a very active 76 year old woman who in her younger days had 3 big surgeries. NEVER have I had a Surgeon like this wonderful man. God sent him to this earth to do what he does and God bless him because he is one awesome man and Doctor. I will return to my 3 mornings weekly of tennis the end of this month.
