Overview

Thyroid conditions are usually managed with medication that needs periodic adjustment based on lab results, which makes them a good fit for an ongoing primary care relationship rather than one-off visits.

How ongoing primary care can help

Your provider will review your symptoms and lab results (or refer you for labs) to determine whether your current treatment needs adjusting, and will check back in at appropriate intervals to help keep your levels on track.

Frequently asked questions

Can thyroid disorders really be managed over telehealth?
In many cases, yes. A primary care provider can evaluate your symptoms and history over video, review any recent labs, and help adjust your treatment plan when appropriate. For some chronic conditions, especially if they are uncontrolled, our providers may need to collect/complete vital signs, physical exams, lab tests, or imaging which requires an in person visit. Our providers will help you take the next step.
Do I need to keep seeing the same provider?
Continuity helps, as seeing the same provider over time means they already know your history and current plan, which usually means faster, more informed visits.
What if I need to be seen in person?
If your provider determines your condition needs an in-person exam, testing, or treatment they can't provide virtually, they'll let you know and help direct you to the right next step.
