Research
Dr. Owen presented his series of nearly 400 parathyroid operations at the 2009 American Head and Neck Society annual meeting. He showed that measuring intraoperative PTH levels seven minutes after lesion excision allowed early determination of cure 80% of the time. 99% of patients were cured of their disease.

Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
