Is There Any Surgeon In Oregon Who Perform More Than 2 Or 3 Parathyroid Operations Per Week?

I have hyperparathyroid disease and just this weekend passed a kidney stone. I take vitamin D and have blood calcium from 10.3 to 10.7. My endocrinologist wants to wait and see for 6 months. I want to have surgery to remove the offending nodule. Are there any surgeons in Oregon who do more than 2 or 3 parathyroid operations a week?
