Dr. Keith D. Forwith, Ph.D., M.D., specializes in thyroid and parathyroid surgery, treating patients with a wide variety of conditions including thyroid cancer, goiter, Grave’s disease, thyroid nodules, and parathyroid tumors. His focus on thyroid disease is rooted in personal experience as both he and his wife have thyroid nodules. He performs his own ultrasounds and FNA biopsies to ensure precision and accuracy. Always on the leading edge of the field, he offers minimally invasive surgery and in-office surgical alternatives.
His research interest has led him to write some of the keynote articles in the development of novel sinus therapies, such as the Propel surgical stent and the Sinuva implant for non-surgical treatment of nasal polyps.
Dr. Keith Forwith began his career in research, obtaining a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Purdue University.

His medical practice is focused on thyroid and parathyroid surgery, head and neck oncology, thyroid and parathyroid oncology, and allergy and sinus disease.
He is the father of four wonderful daughters. He is an active member of his church and teaches a bible study at Southeast Christian Church. He is married to his college sweetheart, Sue. He loves all water sports, including kiteboarding, slalom water skiing, snow skiing, and hockey.

Very knowledgeable and caring doctor. Took plenty of time to explain his findings to me.
Liked him very much and feel confident he will doo what is right forvme
He was in to big of a hurry. Everyone was nice
Dr. Forwith listens and is helpful. I am comfortable he has my health in mind.
My medical records has stuff in it that doesnt pertain to me. I am not osteoporosis
Dr Forwith has gotten me further than any doctor has ever. I was born with conditions and have tried many times to get relief through treatment but since my first visit I could see a difference. There was total honesty about what was possible. This surgery was emotional for me because it was the first time I could feel air going through my nasal passages. Every little thing matters and he gets that.
He was very personable, and he explained everything in great detail. The staff was also quite helpful.
He barely took any time with me, I had to ask about next steps
Very knowledgeable in thyroid health and shows great compassion for his patients. He takes his time to explain medical details in a way the average patient can understand and ensures they are comfortable with that understanding to make informed decisions regarding their own care.
I'm definitely going to give you a five because I feel like your office staff is fantastic, love doctor Forwith and the way that he explains complex situations, and the only negative feedback I have is the communication between the office and the hospital. I'm not sure what side that is on, so I don't want to take away stars because it could be something on the hospital end.
