See your normal doctor and they will refer you to an appropriate specialist.
More specifically, an endocrinologist is the specialist one would typically see to diagnose the disease after being referred by your primary care physician.
Unfortunately, often times PCP's and even Endocrinologists don't diagnose the disease properly. While a high calcium level is an indicator of hyperthyroidism in 99% of patients, a Sestamibi scan is often performed and often times read as negative because they are not performed that often and those performing and reading scan results don't do it properly.
The cure for primary hyperparathyroidism is surgery. There are no other effective treatments. Additionally, you don't necessarily need to see an endocrinologist to be diagnosed with this condition. Most primary care physicians aren't well-educated on this condition and don't diagnose it properly. Request Calcium, PTH and Vitamin D level blood tests from your doctor. Then have them check in another eight weeks. If calcium levels are high, I recommend you visit the link below and read in great detail, then forward to your doctor. DO NOT allow hyperparathyroidism to go untreated. It won't get better on its own. It will only get worse.
Hyperparathyroidism uses the hormone parathyroid (PTH).
There is no safe or reliable alternative to removal of the parathyroid glands for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism.
It is estimated that 28 of every 100,000 people in the United States will develop hyperparathyroidism each year
A normal doctor should be able to help you.
Limiting intake of soft drinks can help to prevent hyperparathyroidism. Soda drinks contain high levels of phosphorus. High phosphorus intake can cause hypocalcemia that leads to secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Since Hyperparathyroidism is a disease of the endocrine system, and Endocrinologist would provide diagnosis and treatment.
Hyperparathyroidism causes increased production of parathyroid hormones. Risk factors that make you more susceptible to Hyperparathyroidism include being a post menopausal woman, taking lithium, and vitamin D deficiency. Side effects or health risks that come with Hyperparathyroidism include Osteoporosis, kidney Stones, and cardiovascular disease.
