Symptoms of thyroid dysfunction can be, at the very least, frustrating and, at their worst, debilitating. They range from fatigue and weakness to weight gain and depression. Our thyroid specialist, Dr. John Haest MD, takes a more thorough approach to resolving thyroid issues utilizing advanced testing not offered by most physicians, thyroid support and supplementation, and natural bioidentical thyroid replacement.
There is no standardization between patients so our thyroid experts tailor a treatment plan based on your specific symptoms and test results.
We understand thyroid function is much more complex than conventional practices recognize. So we go above and beyond to get to the root of thyroid imbalance by addressing all contributing factors including vitamin D levels, iodine levels, toxicity, iron levels, diet, lifestyle and nutrition, and hormone imbalance (estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol levels).
We prescribe compounded bioidentical thyroid hormone. That means, not only are our hormones recognized by your body as identical to those it produces, but they're never pre-mixed and are free of additives, preservatives, fillers and binders found in standardized medications like Synthroid and Armour. Compounding allows Dr. Haest to prescribe exact amounts of the types of thyroid hormone you need based on your specific needs. This individualized approach has helped thousands of Austinites resolve their symptoms of thyroid imbalance by treating the underlying imbalance itself rather than just the symptoms.
We specialize in nutrition, natural nutrients and supplements to help boost thyroid function in addition to prescription medication and we only use the highest quality available. This ensures the shortest effective duration of medication possible and helps allow your body to restore its balance and normal production of thyroid hormone.
Thyroid is a hormone produced by the thyroid gland that regulates the body's metabolism Ð how it consumes energy, reacts to other hormones, and its production of proteins like your hair and nails. The thyroid gland has an impact on energy levels, weight regulation, skin, hair, and nail quality, body temperature regulation, as well as many other factors that affect quality of life.
