Acromegaly: Is Pituitary Surgery Worth It? Dr. JFM, Stanford Neurosurgeon, Breaks It Down

What does a successful acromegaly surgery really look like—and how do patients know they’re in the right hands? In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Tony Alston sits down with Dr. Juan Fernandez-Miranda, (aka Dr. JFM),world-renowned Stanford neurosurgeon and global leader in pituitary and skull base surgery, to unpack what every acromegaly patient deserves to know. Dr. Fernandez-Miranda explains: Why pituitary surgery is not “brain surgery” How expert surgical techniques have raised remission rates to 90%+ What patients should ask before choosing a surgeon Why remission doesn’t always mean symptoms disappear overnight The truth about risks, recovery, brain fog, and long-term outcomes Game-changing advances like PET-MRI imaging and minimally invasive endoscopic surgery From fear and delayed diagnosis to trust, compassion, and hope—this episode empowers patients to advocate for themselves and make informed decisions about their care. 🎙️ If you or someone you love is living with acromegaly, a pituitary tumor, or facing surgery, this conversation could change everything. #acromegaly #pituitarytumor #pituitarysurgery #endocrinedisorders #rarediseaseawareness #patientadvocacy #neurosurgery #stanfordmedicine #brainhealth #chronicillness #healthpodcast #medicalpodcast #minimallyinvasivesurgery #endoscopicsurgery #growthhormone #IGF1 #rarediseasecommunity #healingjourney #patienteducation #talkingacromegalywithtony #headache #headaches
