FLORIDA ENDOCRINOLOGY AND DIABETES CENTER
The thyroid is a small gland at the base of the neck that regulates metabolism, energy, and hormone balance throughout the body. When it malfunctions, it can cause hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid, including Graves’ disease), Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, thyroid nodules, or thyroid cancer. Our board-certified endocrinologists diagnose thyroid conditions using lab panels that go beyond basic TSH testing — including Free T3, Free T4, and thyroid antibody testing — along with high-resolution ultrasound and fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy when nodules are found. Treatment plans are tailored to the specific condition and may include medication, radioactive iodine therapy, or coordination with a surgeon for thyroidectomy. Patients are followed closely to keep hormone levels stable over time.
