What is a Thyroidologist . . .
and why do I want to consult with one about my thyroid?

For 31 years I have been seeing patients with thyroid conditions. For 5 years I have been answering 30-50 E-mail questions a day from patients who visit my web site, www.thyroid.com. The thing that struck me was very few patients have ever seen a thyroidologist and most do not know they exist. Most thyroid cases are handled by primary care physicians, internists, endocrinologists, surgeons, nuclear medicine physicians, E.N.T., and, in the case of thyroid cancer, oncologists. The above physicians rarely consider sending you to an expert thyroidologist.

Thyroid disease is rarely an emergency, and therefore referral to someone out of town or state is feasible. The diagnosis rendered by a thyroidologist is rarely changed for the rest of the patient's life. The first encounter will label you for life, render a proper thyroid diagnosis, and ensure you proper care.
