2 December 2017 Dear Colleague, Thank you for referring your patient(s) to UW Health Endocrine Surgery. We value our relationship with you and appreciate your confidence in our services and staff. Our goal is to work together to provide your patients with the highest quality of care. We know you have limited endocrine surgery referral resources in your region, so we developed a guide for working up patients with thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal conditions. Enclosed is a handheld version of this guide for your use. If you would like a poster version for your office, please call us at (608) and we will mail it to you. To make the referral process as easy as possible, we have included information about our Distance Referral Program a description of the program, contact information and referral checklists. We are happy to provide services for any patient with a thyroid, parathyroid or adrenal problem. If you have questions about our program or are interested in referring a patient, please contact our program coordinator, Cindy Shumway, at (608) or shumway@surgery.wisc.edu. We look forward to continuing to work with you and your patients. Rebecca Sippel, MD, FACS Chief of Endocrine Surgery On behalf of the UW Health Endocrine Surgery team Your privacy is our top priority.

Thank you. GS
3 UW HEALTH ENDOCRINE SURGERY The UW Health Endocrine Surgery Program has been providing nationally recognized care and innovative services to its patients for more than a decade. Our surgeons have performed thousands of endocrine operations to treat multiple parathyroid, thyroid and adrenal conditions. Our distance referral program is a convenient way for you to refer your patients with hyperparathyroidism, thyroid or adrenal problems to UW Health Endocrine Surgery. We offer your patients a consultation and surgery all in one trip. This usually requires a 2 3 day stay in Madison. If you have questions about our distance referral program or are interested in referring a patient, please contact our program coordinator, Cindy Shumway, at (608) or shumway@surgery.wisc.edu.

5 The UW Health Endocrine Surgery Program includes a multidisciplinary thyroid clinic of endocrinologists, endocrine surgeons, nuclear medicine specialists, pathologists, interventional radiologists, oncologists and nurse practitioners who manage our patients endocrine concerns. Patients play a crucial role in treatment, working side by side with physicians to determine an individualized treatment program. MEET OUR ENDOCRINE SURGERY PROVIDERS Our multidisciplinary care team consists of board-certified surgeons who work side by side with endocrinologists, pathologists, cytologists and interventional radiologists specialized to specific endocrine conditions. Our team of endocrine surgeons specializes in surgical treatment of the thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal glands. Multidisciplinary Care: Endocrine Surgery Program Our distance referral program is a convenient way for you to refer your patients with hyperparathyroidism, thyroid or adrenal problems to UW Health Endocrine Surgery. We offer your patients a consultation and surgery all in one trip. This usually requires a 2 3 day stay in Madison. WHAT SETS US APART Our team includes endocrine surgeons and endocrinologists, as well as numerous other specialists, depending on the case. This integrated approach determines the best course of treatment for each patient, whether that is medical therapy, surgery or both. Our endocrine surgeons have some of the highest surgical volumes in the U.S., which has led to superior outcomes and very low complication rates. Kristin Long, MD Dr. Long is particularly interested in the surgical treatment and management of thyroid carcinoma and hereditary endocrine disorders, such as multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes. Her research focuses on global surgery and improving surgical access in low-resource countries. Susan Pitt, MD, MPHS Dr. Pitt focuses on treating patients with benign and malignant adrenal disease (incidentalomas, functioning tumors and adrenocortical cancer), thyroid nodules and primary hyperparathyroidism. Her research aims to improve the treatment decision-making process and decrease overtreatment. Our program is part of the UW Carbone Cancer Center, the only National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in the state. We offer a monthly multidisciplinary endocrine case conference. Referring providers are welcome to participate. In conference, we evaluate and discuss each patient to help formulate optimal treatment strategies. Our surgeons were the first in Wisconsin to use minimally invasive techniques in endocrine operations. Our endocrine surgeons continue to pioneer state-of-the-art techniques for patients. David Schneider, MD, MS Dr. Schneider has a particular interest in the diagnosis and treatment of all types of parathyroid disease and indeterminate thyroid nodules. His research uses electronic medical records data and computers to help patients and providers make personalized decisions. Rebecca Sippel, MD Dr. Sippel has extensive experience in re-operative parathyroid and thyroid surgery. She is particularly interested in the treatment of hyperparathyroidism and benign and malignant thyroid disease, such as thyroid cancer, Graves disease and goiter. Her research focuses on improving the surgical care of patients with endocrine diseases. If you have questions about our distance referral program or are interested in referring a patient, please contact our program coordinator, Cindy Shumway, at (608) or shumway@surgery.wisc.edu. GS
6 Stoughton Rd ENDOCRINE SURGERY PROGRAM Thyroidectomy Partial or total thyroidectomy involves small incisions using either open or endoscopic techniques. Our approach optimizes treatment for patients with complex, recurrent, metastatic or re-operative thyroid disease. Parathyroidectomy Parathyroidectomy is accomplished through small incisions with ultrasound, radioguidance and intraoperative parathyroid hormone monitoring. Advanced techniques, such as venous sampling, 4-D CT scans and measurement of parathyroid hormone in fine needle aspirates, allow us to treat even the most challenging cases of recurrent, reoperative and ectopic hyperparathyroidism. Adrenalectomy Adrenalectomy includes laparoscopic, retroperitoneoscopic or open techniques. Our multidisciplinary adrenal clinic addresses all phases of care from the initial workup to advanced imaging, hormonal testing and adrenal venous sampling, as well as surveillance of adrenal nodules. PATIENT-FOCUSED OUTCOMES UW Health endocrine surgeons take a patient-centered approach. Our team offers a tailored treatment plan for each patient, focused on improving quality of life, optimizing long-term outcomes and special consideration for patient preferences. Even mild or subclinical forms of endocrine disease can be successfully treated. NOVEL TREATMENTS AND TAILORED THERAPY We offer advanced techniques for diagnosis, treatment and prevention of endocrine disorders. Our approach matches the best technology to each patient s needs. Our goal is to provide quality care for even the most complex patients. This includes: Workup and management of incidentally discovered adrenal nodules Comprehensive management of initial and recurrent thyroid cancers Endoscopic surgery Minimally invasive radioguided parathyroidectomy Re-operative surgery for patients with persistent and recurrent primary hyperparathyroidism Integrated treatment for hyperthyroidism, Cushing syndrome, hyperaldosteronism, pheochromocytoma and all types of hyperparathyroidism Clinical trials for treatment-resistant thyroid cancer Minimally invasive surgery for large adrenal masses Coordinated two-day visit, including clinical consult with surgery the following day ADVANCED IMAGING Surgeon-performed ultrasound Intraoperative ultrasound Nuclear medicine scans 4-D parathyroid CT scans Adrenal venous sampling Selective venous sampling for parathyroid hormone RESEARCH Our team conducts many types of research aimed at improving the care of our patients. The results of this research are readily translated into best practices at UW Health, benefiting our patients and referring providers.

7 Endocrine Surgery Distance Referral Program Our distance referral program is a convenient way for you to refer your patients with hyperparathyroidism, thyroid or adrenal problems to UW Health Endocrine Surgery. We offer your patients a consultation and surgery all in one trip. This usually requires a 2 3 day stay in Madison. How Our Program Works Fax your referral and additional information (see accompanying checklists) to our distance referral coordinator: Cindy Shumway, BS, LPN Fax: (608) Phone: (608) We will call patients, get them set up in our system and obtain additional information. Our endocrine surgeons will review patients records and make recommendations. We will call patients with the surgeons recommendations and coordinate the consultation, any additional testing, if needed, and the surgery. Patients will need to see their primary care physicians for a pre-operative exam within 30 days of the surgery date. We will fax the primary care physicians a pre-operative request letter with the information needed (labs, EKG, etc.) We will fax all of the records to you after the surgery. Patients usually have their post-op visits and lab tests done locally and we call them on the phone to follow up with results. It is not always safe or appropriate to proceed with the consult and surgery in one trip. If this is the case, we will work with your patient to create an alternative plan. GS
