1. A system for providing feedback during an electrosurgical procedure on a target tissue, the system comprising:

  • an electrosurgical energy source;

    an electrode probe assembly connected to the electrosurgical energy source, the electrode probe assembly including at least one electrode assembly having a needle configured to deliver electrosurgical energy to the target tissue;

    a thermal feedback assembly connected to the electrosurgical energy source, the thermal feedback assembly including at least one temperature sensor assembly; and

    a hub configured to selectively support the electrode probe assembly and the thermal feedback assembly such that the needle of the electrode probe assembly and each temperature sensor assembly of the thermal feedback assembly are proximate to one another when disposed proximate the target tissue.
