Physician-Led Thyroid Support for Hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's, and Thyroid Resistance. Mathew Jadan, Holistic Practitioner provides comprehensive thyroid testing, natural desiccated thyroid options, and personalized protocols to restore optimal thyroid function and energy.
Schedule Your ConsultationMathew Jadan, Holistic Practitioner offers comprehensive thyroid Support for Florida residents suffering from hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, or thyroid hormone resistance. Unlike conventional doctors who only test TSH and prescribe levothyroxine (synthetic T4), we perform complete thyroid panels including Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies. As a licensed physician, Dr. Jadan can prescribe all forms of thyroid medication including natural desiccated thyroid, compounded T3/T4 combinations, and time-release formulations—options many conventional practitioners won't consider.
Your thyroid gland controls metabolism, energy production, body temperature, weight, mood, and countless other functions. Even mild thyroid dysfunction can dramatically impact quality of life.
Underactive thyroid production leads to slowed metabolism, fatigue, weight gain, depression, brain fog, cold intolerance, constipation, dry skin, hair loss, and more. Affects 5-10% of adults, particularly women.
Autoimmune attack on the thyroid gland causing gradual destruction and declining function. Most common cause of hypothyroidism in developed countries. Requires immune modulation alongside thyroid hormone replacement.
Normal thyroid lab values but hypothyroid symptoms due to cellular resistance, conversion problems, or reverse T3 dominance. Conventional doctors often miss this because TSH appears "normal."
Conventional doctors typically only test TSH. We perform complete thyroid panels to identify the full picture of thyroid function and dysfunction.
Pituitary hormone signaling thyroid to produce hormones. High TSH suggests hypothyroidism. However, normal TSH doesn't rule out thyroid dysfunction—many patients have "normal" TSH but low Free T3.
Primary hormone produced by thyroid gland. Must be converted to active T3 in tissues. Many patients have adequate T4 but poor conversion to T3, causing symptoms despite "normal" labs.
Active thyroid hormone that drives metabolism and energy. This is what actually matters at the cellular level. Low Free T3 explains why patients feel hypothyroid despite normal TSH.
Inactive form of T3 that blocks thyroid receptors. High Reverse T3 causes thyroid hormone resistance—adequate T4/T3 in blood but cells can't use it. Often elevated with stress, inflammation, or toxins.
TPO (thyroid peroxidase) and TG (thyroglobulin) antibodies indicate Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroiditis. Identifies patients needing immune-modulating interventions alongside thyroid hormone.
Vitamin D, selenium, zinc, iron/ferritin, and B12 are essential for thyroid hormone production and conversion. Deficiencies prevent optimal thyroid function even with medication.
Examples: Synthroid, Levoxyl, Tirosint
Synthetic T4 hormone that requires conversion to active T3. Works well for some patients but insufficient for those with conversion problems or who need direct T3 supplementation.
Examples: Armour Thyroid, Nature-Throid, WP Thyroid
Contains both T4 and T3 from porcine thyroid glands. Provides the full spectrum of thyroid hormones the body naturally produces. Many patients feel significantly better on NDT than synthetic T4 alone.
Examples: Cytomel, Liothyronine
Direct T3 supplementation for patients who don't convert T4 to T3 effectively. Can be used alone or combined with T4. Particularly helpful for reverse T3 dominance.
Custom-compounded thyroid medications with precise T4:T3 ratios tailored to individual needs. Allows flexibility in dosing that commercial products don't offer. Available in sustained-release formulations.
Compounded slow-release T3 that provides steady levels throughout the day rather than peaks and crashes. Better symptom control and more stable energy for many patients.
Selenium, zinc, vitamin D, iron, iodine (when appropriate), adaptogenic herbs, gut healing, inflammation reduction, and stress management to optimize thyroid function and hormone conversion.
Detailed symptom assessment, medical history, family history of thyroid disease, medication review, and evaluation of factors affecting thyroid function (stress, toxins, inflammation, gut health).
TSH, Free T4, Free T3, Reverse T3, TPO antibodies, TG antibodies. Plus supporting nutrients: vitamin D, selenium, zinc, ferritin, B12. We test what matters, not just TSH.
Identify underlying factors: Hashimoto's autoimmunity, nutrient deficiencies, conversion problems, reverse T3 dominance, adrenal dysfunction, gut issues, chronic infections, or toxin exposure affecting thyroid function.
Based on lab results, symptoms, and individual factors, Dr. Jadan prescribes appropriate thyroid medication (T4 only, NDT, T3, or combinations). Includes nutrient repletion, dietary recommendations, and lifestyle modifications.
Regular follow-ups (every 6-8 weeks initially, then every 3-6 months) with repeat thyroid testing to assess response and optimize dosing. We adjust medication type, dosing, or timing based on symptoms and lab values.
For autoimmune thyroiditis: immune-modulating interventions including gluten elimination, gut healing, selenium supplementation, vitamin D optimization, stress reduction, and addressing infections or toxins triggering autoimmunity.
We test beyond TSH to include Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and antibodies. This complete picture reveals dysfunction that conventional testing misses and explains why patients still feel hypothyroid despite "normal" TSH.
Access to levothyroxine, natural desiccated thyroid (Armour, Nature-Throid), liothyronine (T3), compounded combinations, and time-release formulations. We find what works for YOU, not just what's easiest to prescribe.
We optimize thyroid function based on how you feel, not arbitrary lab ranges. Many patients feel best with Free T3 in upper-normal range—we adjust medication to achieve symptomatic improvement, not just "normal" numbers.
We identify and address why your thyroid isn't functioning optimally: autoimmunity, nutrient deficiencies, conversion problems, inflammation, gut dysfunction, or toxin exposure. This integrative approach enhances treatment effectiveness.
Specialized protocols for autoimmune thyroiditis including immune modulation, dietary interventions (gluten-free, AIP), gut healing, nutrient repletion, and identifying autoimmune triggers. Thyroid hormone alone isn't enough for Hashimoto's.
Telemedicine appointments for Florida residents. Receive expert thyroid care, medication prescriptions, and lab orders from home. No need to travel—convenient thyroid Support accessible statewide.
Significant improvement in energy levels, reduced fatigue, easier waking, better stamina throughout the day. Most patients notice energy improvements within 4-8 weeks of optimal dosing.
Normalized metabolism makes weight loss possible again. Many patients lose 10-20+ pounds once thyroid is optimized, particularly when combined with proper nutrition and exercise.
Improved focus, concentration, memory, and cognitive function. Relief from brain fog and mental sluggishness. Better mood, reduced depression and anxiety.
Hair regrowth, improved skin quality, stronger nails, better body temperature regulation, relief from cold intolerance, reduced muscle aches, improved digestion.
Improved menstrual regularity, enhanced fertility, restored libido, better overall hormone function. Thyroid Support often improves other hormonal imbalances.
Overall sense of vitality and well-being. Ability to engage in activities, enjoy life, and feel like yourself again. Relief from the limitations hypothyroidism imposes.
