Endocrine and Minimally Invasive Surgery is a special field of surgery that focuses on the management of problems (principally benign and malignant tumors) of the thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal glands, as well as endocrine tumors of the pancreas and gastrointestinal tract. The goals of the Section of Endocrine and Minimally Invasive Surgery at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center are to provide excellent patient care and advance knowledge of diseases of these glands through research and education.
The clinical focus of the Section of Endocrine and Minimally Invasive Surgery is to employ Minimally Invasive Techniques to provide superb care. To this end, thyroid and parathyroid surgery is performed under local or regional anesthesia using small incisions. Adrenal tumors are approached via laparoscopic or robotic techniques whenever possible.
We emphasize strong collaboration within our teams to bring a unique multidisciplinary care that is patient centric and novel. This enables us to work together to conduct collaborative research needed to develop and improve our expertise. Our multidisciplinary team is comprised of thought leaders and practicing researchers dedicated to the studies of tumor biology, who continue to be well published and highly respected within the community.

What Our Patients Are Saying
Doctor Zarnegar is very professional and has good beside manner. I am dealing with gastritis and he also did the surgery for my gallbladder removal. The surgery went smoothly and he did not hesitate to keep me at the hospital when I was not feeling well because of my neuropathy issues. He kept me until my pain was under control and he and his office kept following up. He is truly a good doctor who goes above and beyond to help his patients. He is still investigating to find out what is the really issue with me and I appreciate that. I would definitely recommend him.
Seven months ago Dr. Zarnegar performed a very successful hernia repair surgery on my right side. He gave me a perfect surgical result with a fast and pain-free recovery. Recently, I saw Dr. Zarnegar again because I foolishly herniated my left side. As I have gotten to know Dr. Zarnegar and his office very well over the past seven months, I can confidently state that Dr. Zarnegar and his office represent the absolute best in surgical and medical care. He is a world-class surgeon with no inflated ego or attitude. He will listen to your concerns and provide the treatment that is best for you. Dr. Zarnegar and his entire staff have always provided me with exceptional care, compassion, and personal attention.
Amazing caring time & attention from Dr. Zarnegar and his whole team! Treating conditions that can flare from STRESS! Feeling blessed to work with a world-class surgeon, with plain humble talk, builds confidence & comfort big-time.
