Thyroid Disorder Treatment

Your thyroid sets the pace for everything — heart rate, body temperature, energy, mood, weight, even how fast your hair and nails grow. When it's off, life feels off. We diagnose the cause, treat it precisely, and follow up so you stay well.

Thyroid Disorder Treatment

Conditions we treat

Thyroid disease takes many forms, and the right treatment depends on the right diagnosis. We use modern lab panels, in-office ultrasound, and fine-needle aspiration biopsy to pinpoint exactly what's going on.

  • Hypothyroidism — Including Hashimoto's thyroiditis, the most common autoimmune cause.
  • Hyperthyroidism — Including Graves' disease and toxic nodular goiter.
  • Thyroid nodules — Evaluated with ultrasound, biopsy when indicated, and surveillance over time.
  • Goiter — Diffuse and nodular goiter, with surgical referral when appropriate.
  • Thyroid cancer — Coordinated care with endocrine surgery and oncology.
  • Thyroid eye disease — See our dedicated TED page.

Diagnostics in our clinic

We don't just check a TSH and call it a day. The full picture often requires multiple panels and imaging.

  • Comprehensive thyroid panel — TSH, Free T4, Free T3, anti-TPO, thyroglobulin, TSI/TRAb when indicated.
  • Thyroid ultrasound — In-office imaging of nodules, structure, and vascular patterns.
  • Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) — When a nodule needs cellular evaluation.
  • Radioactive iodine uptake & scan — For hyperthyroidism workup.

Treatment that fits

Two patients with the same lab numbers can need very different plans. We match treatment to your symptoms, your goals, and the specific underlying disease — not just a number on a printout.

  • Levothyroxine — Brand-name, generic, or T3-containing combinations.
  • Methimazole / PTU — Anti-thyroid medication for hyperthyroidism.
  • Radioactive iodine (I-131) — Definitive treatment for Graves and toxic nodular goiter.
  • Thyroidectomy referral — When surgery is the right answer.
  • Tepezza referral — For active thyroid eye disease.
