At Austin Thyroid & Endocrinology, we prioritize patient safety. Based on decades of research and clinical expertise, we do not condone the use of desiccated thyroid extract because it can cause serious health complications.Just because it makes you feel good doesn’t mean it’s safe. A lot of drugs make you feel good but are dangerous.

If you have questions about your thyroid health or concerns about your current treatment, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with our team. Together, we’ll develop a personalized plan that ensures your long-term health and well-being.

Learn about the risks and benefits of desiccated thyroid vs. synthetic thyroid medications. Dr. Scumpia recommends safe, evidence-based thyroid hormone treatments at Austin Thyroid & Endocrinology.
