What we treat
Thyroid disorders
We evaluate and manage thyroid disease, including an underactive or overactive thyroid and thyroid nodules. That includes the ongoing dose adjustment that thyroid treatment requires.
Common situations
What people bring us
- The same dose for a decade without a recheck.
- Being told your thyroid is normal while every symptom of thyroid disease continues.
- A nodule found incidentally and left without follow-up.
How we approach it
What your care includes
Symptoms and results read together
TSH alone misses things. Symptoms, antibodies and the rest of the panel belong in the same read.
Dose management that continues
Requirements change with age, weight, pregnancy and other medication. We recheck rather than assuming.
Nodules followed properly
If something was found, it gets tracked on a schedule, and we keep to that schedule.
When to come in
If you are on thyroid medication that has not been reviewed in years, or you have thyroid symptoms and have been told your test was fine.
Questions
What people ask about thyroid disorders
My TSH is normal but I still have symptoms. Is that possible?
Yes, and it is a common and frustrating situation. It is worth a fuller evaluation, and it is also worth looking for causes outside the thyroid rather than assuming the thyroid must be the answer.
