Why I am passionate about treating patients with hypothyroidism.
Hypothyroidism is often under-treated and can greatly impact your quality of life. A personal mission of mine is helping those with hypothyroidism get the care and resources they deserve.
My approach to treating hypothyroidism is...
Looking at the big picture when treating. Lifestyle, environment, stress, sleep, diet, and medication all play a role in achieving wellness.
