Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery

Thyroidectomy is the removal of all or part of your thyroid gland. Your thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck. It produces hormones that regulate every aspect of your metabolism, from your heart rate to how quickly you burn calories.

Surgery of Sleep Apnoea and SnoringObstructive sleep apnoea

(OSA) is a syndrome characterized by periods of

cessation of breathing (apnoea) or decreases in

airflow during sleep (hypopnoea) that occur

during sleep.  The syndrome is defined by an apnea-

hypopnea index (the number of apnoeas plus hypopneas divided by the number of

hours asleep).  The number is 5 or higher in association with excessive daytime

sleepiness.

Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Dr. Kerner approaches facial rejuvenation in a comprehensive manner.  Not every procedure is for every potential patient. 

We approach facial aging as a multi-factorial event that involves some bone loss, soft tissue loss, and then excess

skin only as a result of the deflation that occurs with the underlying tissues.  To

address these issues, we evaluate each patient on an individual basis.  Some

patients benefit from a traditional face and neck lift, others just some fat

injection procedures.  Others require implants to achieve desirable results.
