Sound Familiar?
Thyroid concerns can be associated with many different symptoms, including:

Our Approach
We look beyond a single test result and consider your symptoms, health history, laboratory results, nutrition and lifestyle.
Your individualized treatment plan may include:
- Thyroid and general laboratory testing
- Nutrition strategies
- Correcting nutrient deficiencies
- Improving sleep and stress management
- Supporting digestive health
- Lifestyle recommendations
- Collaboration with your other healthcare providers
Our goal is a practical treatment plan based on your individual needs.
Comprehensive Thyroid Testing
Depending on your symptoms and medical history, laboratory testing may include:
- TSH
- Free T4
- Free T3
- Thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies
- Thyroglobulin antibodies
- Iron studies and ferritin
- Vitamin B12
- Vitamin D
- Blood sugar and insulin markers
As naturopathic doctors in Ontario, we can order laboratory testing directly. Some tests are not covered by OHIP and are paid for privately.
We recommend testing when it is likely to provide useful information or help guide treatment decisions.
Individualized Thyroid Care
Thyroid health can be influenced by many factors. In addition to assessing thyroid function, we may consider nutrition, iron status, nutrient deficiencies, digestive health, sleep, stress and metabolic health.
Treatment recommendations are individualized according to your symptoms, medical history and laboratory results.
When appropriate, we can also work alongside your family doctor, endocrinologist or other healthcare providers.
