Leaders in Our Field

The BlueCross BlueShield Association has named Roswell Park a Blue Distinction Center for Complex and Rare Cancers® for providing superior care for medullary and anaplastic thyroid cancer. We are one of only four centers in New York State to have earned this designation.

Better Outcomes

Roswell Park is a high-volume center for both thyroid and parathyroid surgery, and studies show that patients enjoy better outcomes at centers that perform a high number of procedures.

Setting the National Standards

Our thyroid/parathyroid physicians are among the experts who develop the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines that prescribe the best ways of preventing, detecting, and treating specific types of cancer. The NCCN Guidelines are the most widely used standards in both the United States and abroad.
