About the Doctor

Hi, I'm Dr. Carlos Gustavo Rivera Robledo. My medical practice specializes in high-complexity surgery of the glands and neck. With more than 10 years of experience and a steady volume of more than 150 surgeries a year, my commitment is to offer you an accurate diagnosis and excellent surgical execution, where technical safety is combined with aesthetic subtlety to achieve minimally noticeable scars.​Thyroid Surgery and Voice ProtectionThyroid pathology is the cornerstone of my practice. I am dedicated to the comprehensive management of thyroid nodules, multinodular goiter (including retrosternal thyroid) and thyroid cancer.​In each procedure I use laryngeal neuromonitoring to identify and protect the vocal cord nerves. My goal is to preserve the integrity of your voice and ensure a functional and aesthetic recovery, always taking care of the delicate tissues of the neck.​Leadership in Parathyroid Surgery and RevisionsI specialize in the definitive treatment of hyperparathyroidism through minimally invasive approaches and the use of intraoperative PTH to ensure the success of the surgery in real time.​Referral point for colleagues: Due to my high level of specialization, I frequently collaborate with oncologic and general surgeons in managing highly technically challenging cases. I frequently receive second opinions to resolve persistent conditions or neck reoperations where other approaches have not succeeded, restoring mineral health with maximum precision.​Specialist in Adrenal GlandsI have a specialized focus on adrenal gland tumors through laparoscopic adrenalectomy. This advanced approach allows treatment of conditions such as Pheochromocytoma, Adrenal Incidentaloma and adrenal cortex tumors with millimeter incisions, ensuring optimal hemodynamic stability and a minimal hospital stay.​Complex Cervical Pathology: Salivary Glands, Airway and Esophagus​Salivary Glands: Expert in parotid and submandibular gland surgery, with an emphasis on careful dissection to preserve the facial nerves and maintain facial symmetry.​Cysts and Lipomas: Definitive treatment of thyroglossal cyst, branchial cyst and large cervical lipomas. I apply plastic surgery techniques so that the aesthetic result is discreet and natural.​Airway and Esophagus: Specialist in the correction of Zenker's diverticulum and complex procedures such as tracheostomy closure.​Humane Approach, Experience and Academic BackingThe individualized approach to each case is what allows me to perform excellent surgeries with a deeply humane approach, adapted to the specific needs of each patient. I am currently a staff physician in the Neck Surgery department of the Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI (IMSS), where, in addition to resolving Mexico's most challenging cases, I actively participate in training the country's future specialists and subspecialists.​I am the author of multiple scientific research articles and book chapters dedicated to Endocrine Surgery, which backs my practice with the most current clinical evidence and keeps me an active member of the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons.​Shall we schedule an assessment?If you are looking for the experience of a surgeon trusted by his colleagues, who balances high technical precision with aesthetic and humane care, you can schedule your appointment right here or contact me via WhatsApp. It will be a pleasure to accompany you in your health journey.
