About Us

The Endocrine Surgeons of South Africa (ESSA) was established by a group of dedicated endocrine surgeons with a unified mission: to advance the practice of endocrine surgery within the country. Specialising in thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal surgery, ESSA aims to enhance patient care and outcomes through collaboration, research, and education.

As a non-profit organization committed to public benefit, ESSA has outlined several key objectives.

The objectives of the Society, as a non-profit organisation with activities for public benefit, are to:

1.⁠ ⁠Organise scientific meetings to:

• a. provide a platform for discussing challenging clinical cases and experience in endocrine surgery.

• b. promote and facilitate collaborative research.

2.⁠ ⁠To start a national endocrine surgery registry.

3.⁠ ⁠To support best practice principles in the surgical management of endocrine disease.

4.⁠ ⁠To cooperate in educational endeavours of similar interest groups throughout Africa and beyond.
