Care Philosophy: Dr. Abikhaled has a special interest in thyroid and parathyroid surgery. He treats conditions such as thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, and hyperparathyroidism.

Care Philosophy: I always try to treat a patient as if he or she is a member of my family. In fact I'll often say If you were my sister... or If you were my uncle... this is what I would recommend we do for you.

Care Philosophy: "Robotic surgery has truly changed the landscape of what we can do as surgeons to take care of our patients with the highest level of precision. We have an enhanced visualization which makes our dissections even more precise and with less blood loss. The ability of the instruments to maneuver and function is superior to what we can even do with our bare hands. I love being able to help my patients with the best technology and tools so they can return to work and enjoying their life as soon as possible after surgery."
