Mills-Peninsula Thyroid Disorder Care

When your thyroid isn’t functioning properly, you can feel sluggish and tired or have unexplained weight loss or weight gain. An endocrinologist at Mills-Peninsula Medical Center can determine if your thyroid is causing these symptoms, and if so, work with you to find a solution.

Care for Thyroid Disorders

Some 10 million Americans suffer from hypothyroidism, a common thyroid disorder in which the body doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormone, leading to fatigue and weight gain.

Endocrinologists in the Sutter Health network specialize in caring for patients with hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism (including Graves’ disease) and other thyroid disorders, including thyroid cancer and goiters. Although these conditions can be uncomfortable, most are highly treatable.

Endocrinologists often recommend a variety of services to treat thyroid disorders, including:

  • Lab Tests — Diagnostics to measure hormone levels include thyroid function tests.
  • Medications — To balance hormonal levels.
  • Thyroid Surgery — To treat conditions including cancerous and benign thyroid nodules, large goiters and overactive thyroid glands.
  • Radioactive Iodine — To treat overactive thyroid due to Graves’ disease or toxic nodules.
  • In-office Procedures — These include thyroid ultrasound and ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy of the thyroid or parathyroid.

Don’t suffer from a thyroid condition alone. Endocrinologists in the Sutter Health network can treat your condition and help restore you to good health.

Diabetes, Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome Research

Sutter Health Diabetes, Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome Research
Diabetes is one of the leading causes of illness and death in the U.S. today, but it was uncommon just 60 years ago. Research is critical to slow down this growing health problem and treat the 29 million Americans who have it. Diabetes occurs when the body doesn’t make or use the hormone insulin properly. Cells don’t get the energy they need, and sugar from food – called glucose – builds up in the blood. Obesity is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes and is epidemic in this country.
