Michael Campbell, M.D.
Philosophy of Care
My philosophy of care is to treat every patient how I would want my own family treated. I believe
that each patient deserves to be taken care of with compassion, respect, and a commitment to
deliver the best care possible. I am dedicated to providing a multidisciplinary approach for my
patients bringing together the vast resources of the UC Davis Health System to formulate a shared,
patient-centered plan. There is no “simple” operation when you are the patient.
Clinical Interests
Dr. Campbell is a fellowship-trained endocrine surgeon who specializes in the surgical treatment of
patients with thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and pancreatic disorders. He is an expert in minimally
invasive parathyroid and thyroid surgery as well as complex laparoscopic adrenal surgery. He offers
a wide range of unique services including transabdominal laparoscopic adrenalectomy; minimally
invasive and reoperative thyroid and parathyroid surgery; lymph node dissection using blue dye
localization; and ethanol ablation of recurrent thyroid cancer.
Research/Academic Interests
Dr. Campbell’s research interests include improving multidisciplinary care for endocrine patients;
patient outcomes following thyroid surgery; recurrent and persistent hyperparathyroidism; and
familial endocrine disorders (such as multiple endocrine neoplasia).
