Q&A with
Nicole Shin, NP
Why I am passionate about treating patients with hypothyroidism.
I take a holistic, patient-centered approach that focuses on listening closely, identifying the root causes, and creating personalized treatment plans that support each individual’s unique needs. It’s incredibly rewarding to help patients regain a sense of balance, clarity, and confidence in their health.
My approach to treating hypothyroidism is...
Holistic, personalized, and rooted in evidence-based care. I start by taking the time to understand each patient’s full health picture—including symptoms, lifestyle, medical history, and lab results. I don’t rely solely on lab values; I also prioritize how a patient is actually feeling.
Treatment plans are tailored to the individual and may include thyroid hormone replacement therapy, nutritional and lifestyle support, and ongoing monitoring to ensure optimal results. I believe in educating patients throughout the process so they feel informed, empowered, and actively involved in their care. My goal is always to help patients feel their best—not just within normal lab ranges, but in real life.
