"For a while, I had been looking for a primary care doctor in Hinesville. I am so thankful to have found this amazing M.D. He is very professional and personable. He takes time to listen in a very unhurried manner, and explains things. All staff members treated me with respect and understanding, and blood work and EKG were done with ease and dignity. Front desk staff were especially warm and welcoming. Atmosphere is very clean, and exudes a very relaxing aura. This is indeed a great practice to visit."
A medical condition involving impaired thyroid function. This is an endocrine gland, often butterfly-shaped, that is located below the cricoid cartilage (Adam’s Apple) and above the manubrium of the sternum (mid-line of the chest). It requires iodine to make its hormones, and it works with the brain to maintain and regulate metabolism.
Thyroid function testing can help your doctor determine if dysfunction is occurring along the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.
