THYROID BALANCING
We are Thyroid Balancing Experts and Can Get Your Thyroid Right
Balancing your thyroid is vital for optimal health. Yet low-functioning thyroid has become all too common. But it doesn’t have to be.
Our providers are highly trained and experienced at diagnosing and treating thyroid issues. We use standard medical protocols based on the latest medical discoveries and research studies, and we use proven holistic remedies to get your thyroid balanced.
Dr. Miskell prides herself as a thyroid doctor who can offer effective thyroid balancing treatment at a better cost than most other clinics.
Dr. Miskell is a Board Certified Ob-Gyn who has spent over 20 years refining her Thyroid and Hormone Replacement Programs. We accept nothing less than a patient who is feeling good. We can handle your thyroid imbalance, including hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s.
It’s NOT Normal to have Thyroid Imbalance Symptoms.
We encounter people exhibiting many symptoms of thyroid disorders who previously underwent testing only to be reassured that everything is “normal” — when it’s clearly not. In some instances, they were prescribed thyroid medication that failed to ease their symptoms. At our center, we are dedicated to addressing thyroid concerns with precision and effectiveness.
Personalized and accurate thyroid treatment often leads to noticeable improvements for most patients within days or weeks of initiating the treatment. And a significant majority experience substantial improvement shortly thereafter.
Are you ready to embrace a life of increased well-being, heightened energy, and the opportunity to reclaim the vitality you deserve?

Testimonial
"Just after the first visit the difference in my energy level was amazing . I'm retired and I found myself sitting on the couch and taking a nap during the day. After my first doctor visit and shot, I redid the whole front flower bed of my house in 2 days, which is something I couldn't have done even close to a month ago. The results were amazing. I feel like my old self again." - Sue G.

THYROID BALANCING
Getting Your Thyroid Right
Recognized as the master hormone, the thyroid plays a pivotal role in regulating metabolism, body temperature, and various other bodily functions. Its influence extends to energy levels, body weight, and cognitive function.
The thyroid hormone serves a multifaceted purpose, aiding in the elimination of cellular waste, enhancing fat breakdown, promoting healthy hair growth on the scalp and eyebrows, and reducing cholesterol levels and body weight. Crucially, it contributes to preventing cognitive deterioration.
In the realm of women’s health, thyroid hormone is indispensable for fertility. Surprisingly, many women undergoing costly infertility treatments may find that thyroid hormone replacement is the key to addressing their needs.
Our expertise encompasses the treatment of a diverse range of thyroid disorders, including:
- An under-active thyroid, hypothyroidism.
- Hashimoto’s disease.
- Other thyroid disorders that involve challenges in converting T4 into T3.
The most prevalent thyroid disorder we address is hypothyroidism—an underactive thyroid. Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland cannot produce sufficient thyroid hormone or cannot effectively use the produced hormone, leading to symptoms associated with a sluggish metabolism. If you’re grappling with thyroid-related issues, we’re here to provide comprehensive and tailored solutions.
THYROID BALANCING
Hashimoto's Disease
Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disorder, is a very common cause of hypothyroidism.
This autoimmune response is triggered by the body perceiving the thyroid gland as an invader, prompting the production of antibodies that launch an attack. The consequences are twofold:
- A significant drop in thyroid hormone levels, leading to hypothyroidism
- The gland’s release of excess hormones, causing hyperthyroidism spikes.
As the antibodies continue their assault, the thyroid may become depleted, further contributing to insufficient hormone production and hypothyroidism.
Affecting approximately one in four women, Hashimoto’s disease commonly manifests between ages 45 and 65. However, it can occur at other stages of life and also affect men. To detect this condition accurately, you need blood tests specifically targeting antibodies, as standard TSH tests may not reveal the autoimmune aspect.
Given its autoimmune nature, relying solely on medication for thyroid treatment may fall short of fully addressing Hashimoto’s. The roots of this disorder may extend to deficiencies in Vitamin D, Cortisol, or DHEA, as well as low levels of iodine and selenium.
While treating it as hypothyroidism, it is also good to make some lifestyle changes as part of treatment.
