Thyroid dysfunction often goes undiagnosed or mistreated, leaving patients feeling exhausted, foggy, and frustrated. At Patients Medical in New York City, we take an integrative and functional medicine approach—digging deeper than standard labs to understand the real causes of your thyroid symptoms.
We don’t just look at TSH—we examine your entire hormonal and metabolic picture to help you feel like yourself again.
The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland in the neck that has a big impact on your metabolism, energy, mood, weight, skin, hair, digestion, and more. When your thyroid is underactive (hypothyroid) or overactive (hyperthyroid), it can affect nearly every system in your body.
Functional medicine aims to identify why your thyroid is imbalanced, not just name the condition. Common root causes include:
If your symptoms have been dismissed as “in your head,” it’s time to dig deeper.
Many thyroid issues go undetected due to vague symptoms that overlap with other conditions. Common symptoms include:
At Patients Medical, we go beyond the standard TSH lab to give you a full picture of your thyroid and related systems:
Lisa, age 39, came to us with fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog—yet her primary care physician said her TSH was “normal.”
Upon deeper testing, we found:
We developed a tailored plan with:
In 12 weeks, Lisa’s energy returned, brain fog lifted, and she lost 14 pounds. Her antibodies dropped by 30%.
Yes. TSH alone misses many cases of thyroid dysfunction. Full testing provides a clearer picture.
Many people improve or even normalize thyroid function with dietary, lifestyle, and supplement changes.
Yes, including natural desiccated thyroid and bioidentical options when appropriate.
Absolutely. Autoimmune thyroiditis is a leading cause of hypothyroidism and requires a different approach.
We are out-of-network, but we provide superbills for potential reimbursement. Some labs may be covered.
If you’re ready to tackle what’s truly causing your fatigue, aging symptoms, or inflammation, ask us about Oxidative Stress Testing. It helps us build a laser‑focused healing protocol—from the cellular core outward.
Patients Medical specializes in gently helping the patient identify the root cause of their medical issues and then assist them to recover from their problems to help them move forward to good health.
